Hey Everyone!

The main feature included is a new, optional increased difficulty called “Challenge” mode, with a new costume reward upon completion.

Other notable features included in this update:

  • A new camera mod to find: Long Exposure,

  • Updates to the final boss fight to make it more challenging and more in line with the initial vision,

  • Enemy balance adjustments,

  • Steam trading cards,

  • Various minor bug fixes and other tweaks,

Also, alongside this update will come the much-requested official release of the Heartworm Soundtrack! I’m really excited to finally be able to share that with everyone who has been asking. Finally, I want to again thank everyone who has played, reviewed, and supported the game so far. The reception has been so much better than we could have anticipated, and it’s so awesome to hear how much people have enjoyed our game. I read every review (for better or worse) and appreciate all the feedback. Please, as always, feel free to let me know on Steam or Discord your thoughts, and I can’t wait for you to play the update. Thanks,
