NEW OUTFITS
SUMMER ART CONTEST WINNERS
A month ago we hosted an art contest, some of the winning entries can be seen above, but here are the glorious winners:
Ran for the Waffle Waitress
Sunshine Memoir for the Grand Admiral
Sono for the Mang-O-Matic
Knightedgem for the Inku Idol Doll
Congratulation to them!
We had a LOT of good submissions this year, thank you everyone!
We also added some extra alt colors for the winning outfits
Various bugfixes and QOL changes
- Fixed an issue where other game modes couldn't be started without a proper adventure save
- Vehicles that aren't supposed to go underwater now eject you and take damage while submerged
- Exiting a Vehicle while underwater now correctly put you in the swimming state
- Flying enemies got their brains back and now properly target the player
- Improved camera collisions
- Now Carol model hide if you get too close (no more seeing inside of Carol's head)
- Overhauled the FPS camera, now the rotation point is set to eye level instead of being spine driven, heavily reducing motion sickness
- You can now see your legs in first person
- Lot and lot and lot of code refactoring, not something the player should see apart from extra optimization, but we are cleaning a lot of old early access code, heavily reducing the risk of game breaking bugs.
We hope you guys enjoy exploring the depths and fighting all the new foes lurking under...
As for me, I'll finaly take my first vacation since 1.0 release, so see you all in October!
