Rasvyat 1.0.2 Public Test Build is live

I haven't directly announced this on Steam until now (Only in the Discord previously), however I've been running some test builds for the 1.0.2 update, and the first mass scale one is now live on the public-test-build branch. It should be noted that this is not the complete 1.0.2, it is still missing some features (namely the automatic regulator system that's going to be added in this update), however it does still include several new optimisations, quality of life changes, graphical improvements and reworks to other things in game. With all that being said, please make sure to report any bugs you find in the community Discord server in order to improve the full 1.0.2.

Wrenchy Productions

As apart of a publisher deal with Wrenchy Productions, Rasvyat is partnering with them. This will not impact the creative direction of the game whatsoever, and moreso exists as a way to establish a partnership for future games (in which they'll have more of a hand). I will likely be doing a larger announcement with more details when it comes to the full release of Rasvyat 1.0.2, the main reason I'm doing this smaller announcement is to explain why it now mentions Wrenchy Productions on the startup screen.
