Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Hi all, as promised - chapter 4 is now out!

As usual with patches of this size, please expect issues to pop up! There is no way we could test every possible combination in the game due to the amount of systems so I do expect a crash to appear every now and then. Please as usual report these on our Discord or on the Steam community page so that I can address them quickly. I will be looking at these threads much more the coming days to ensure I pick up any urgent issues and fix them as fast as humanly possible. Other than that, please enjoy and let us know what you think! Don't forget - if you're stuck, you are now able to get a friend to get you through a boss! Cheers!

-- This is a very invasive rework of the core systems of the game, and thus affects pretty much everything
