More Steam Deck streamlining coming, including a big overhaul that will decrease load times and make for smoother running.

If you've got a Steam Deck, jump into the open playtest and tell us what else needs fixing!

What’s new in this update?

Remember Captain Goldie and her flying pirate ship? Or is the confusion charm still too strong? Well, she's showing up now to enlist the player character's help in getting First Mate Locke the calcium he needs...cause dancing skeletons have to keep up their strength!

This update also includes bug fixes (of the not-amber kind). If you luck out and get an amber fossil in the demo–which is only meant to include the first in-game week–share in the discord or in the general feedback form. We'd love to hear who gets what!
