| Week 1 Hotfixes Report! | 2021-06-21 | Since our previous bugfix report, build has gone from 1.0.0.53 to 1.0.0.56.

| Day 1 hotfixes & Teleport option | 2021-06-11 | Hey there! We've been patching the game with tiny fixes throughout the day. A few more issues are known and not yet addressed - we're workin on them! For the most part we've been focused on areas where players can squeeze out of bounds and/or get themselves softlocked in the game. We've plugged MANY holes in the last 24 hours. But also to help address this, we added a new option on PC to let you teleport to Luncheon - this is an abslutely emergency failsafe that should fix you up no matter where you're stuck. If the option looks OK, we'll be rolling it out soon to other platforms as we work on other fixes. Thank you everyone for the amazing r |
