It should be a good one if you're a fan of the Field Between atleast, I have plenty of major updates already planned, but that's for another time... However, I'm starting the year off strong with a brand new update, lets call it Cryophobia+. This update mostly focuses on smaller improvements, things that I didn't have the time to fully polish or implement before the deadline of the main Cryophobia update, plus a few fixes for issues I'd noticed since that release.

Patch notes

  • Enhanced fire and smoke effects for torches and campfires

  • Torches and campfires now release embers when interacted with for better visual clarity

  • The torch flame now shrinks as its duration depletes

  • Footprints now appear when walking in the snow, to help with navigation and look pretty

  • There is now a sound for collecting firewood

  • Adjusted the frozen flesh AI to make it easier to escape

  • Fixed issue with duplicate customers in Cryophobia mode

  • Changed compression for music files, which should hopefully reduce random lag spikes
