We are pleased to announce the release of a major update, 1.5.31. A lot of work has been done.

The patch took a very long time to prepare, and we would like to apologize once again. The long development time was due to the fact that we completely rewrote the project structure in order to make future patches faster and easier to work with. In addition, we had broken saves, achievements, and many critical issues that we have been fixing all this time.
