addedNew ContentI'm working on quite a bit for update 1.2 which of course includes new technologies, beasts and map modifiers. The main thing I'm working on is what I'm calling "Points of Interest" which are locations that can spawn on any map similar to the Belowlands Karma Shop or the Necromancer's tower. These points of interest are things like NPC's to interact with, Thinker-less camps and new world mysteries and puzzles to be solved!
changedTechnical ChangesThat's the fun stuff, but most of my time has been spent on fixes, keybinds reformatting and restructuring code to allow for things like proper UI and text scale to match standards of the Steam Deck and consoles. That's right! Kainga is getting controller support!

New Content

First things first, there are a few houses in the game that are currently not unlockable but a teaser to what's coming up. I should have hidden them but I didn't :) sorry!

I have a bunch of ideas for potential points of interest but I'm always open to hearing yours!

I had a lot of fun coming up with the control scheme and I think I've come up with some clever ideas!
