🚧 Developer’s Note

We’ve spent a good chunk of time exploring content for the full game, including upgrade stations and gamepad support.

This will most likely be the final content patch for the demo as we shift our full focus toward finishing the main game.

We’ll continue monitoring for bugs and issues and fix them as quickly as possible.

Feedback helps us a ton! Consider joining the Discord and letting us know what you think!
