Greetings Survivors!
We are back with our monthly update! This update is largely focused on improving existing systems and the overall experience through balance changes and bug fixes.
You will notice the cabin has a little bit of holiday cheer sprinkled over it brought to you by the Project Winter elves - a special festive touch to prepare for the Holiday event happening soon!
This past month we had a community contest in our Discord which resulted in two recommended presets being added in with this update: Who Are You? and Fool Among Us. Be sure to check them out and let us know what you think!
