Patch #1 - Release Notes

The first major patch is here! This update focuses on expanding gameplay with new upgrade systems, polishing existing features, improving UI and audio feedback, and fixing bugs based on community feedback.

We’re also incredibly excited to release the official soundtrack as a DLC, featuring music by world-renowned electronic producer Joel Mull. The music has been a core part of the game’s atmosphere from the start, and now you can enjoy it outside the game as well. Huge thanks to Joel for crafting such a powerful and immersive soundscape!
