Hi everyone,
Our 1.1.0 update is now available. This update includes a lot of bug fixes and improvements in-game. We still want to squeeze in a lot of improvements and features in this update, but we decided to release it now as this update is essential for the overall game experience. We will have a 1.1.1 update shortly where we will improve the game todo and others.
