Version 1.01.05 — November 6, 2026
A small follow-up to the big 1.01.04 update:
- Fixed a late-game enemy's attacks being invisible.
- Fixed an issue with a mid-game weapon making a loud noise at incorrect times.
- Play time display no longer clips if your save is above 99 hours.
Version 1.01.04 — November 6, 2026
The first "proper" content patch. Full notes via Steam:
- Added missing throwing weapon type: the Grave Knife. It sits in the open chest near the middle of the Tower of Knowledge, once you have unlocked passage. The patch notes confirm the location but not what the weapon does in combat.
- Added options to make some late-game puzzles less frustrating. The developer did not specify which puzzles or what the options change — check your settings menu.
- Added an option to disable screenshake.
- Updated the status effects guide with icons, making it easier to tell which status is which visually.
- Fixed certain weapons counting towards the Extensive Armaments challenge that were not supposed to.
- Fixed the Ring of Wind counting towards the Versatile Volley challenge when it was not supposed to.
- Made the secret door that concealed the Pandora Blade count towards the Concealed Passages challenge, and added a hint for finding it.
- Fixed the stuck spot behind the statue at the queen's grave, a soft lock from resting multiple times in a row with specific timing, and the return point when falling into water on several moving objects.
- Fixed a bug where Steam Cloud saves didn't restore properly when switching devices after a crash.
- Updated controls when scrolling lists with digital inputs: left/right now scroll a full page at a time.
- Fixed the Herald of Okbujo death animation that made it hard to talk to them after the fight — this matters, because the Herald hands over the Memento Mirror — plus stuck shopkeeper dialog and Dagoom the Sea King's poison ring remaining forever.
- Several graphical, audio, collision, and general bug fixes.
Version 1.01.03 — November 1, 2026
- Fixed XP and resource-generation bugs affecting certain enemies.
- Corrected a regeneration function on a punch-type weapon so it works as intended.
- General stability improvements throughout the game.
- Fixed the death animation bug for Dagoom the Sea King.
Version 1.01.02 — November 1, 2026
- Added a DirectX 12 launch option aimed at improved performance.
- Fixed an issue causing Dagoom the Sea King to die while spinning.
- Fixed several locations where players could become stuck.
- Fixed accessory stat errors that appeared when loading saved games.
- Fixed the boss fight trigger for Black Skeletal Witch Husipo.
Version 1.01.01 — October 31, 2026
The day-after-launch patch, focused on progression blockers:
- Fixed a soft lock in the Pit of Despair.
- Fixed a freeze that could occur during weapon evolution.
- Fixed the stuck Executioner door.
- Fixed a Mimic freeze bug.
- Restored missing water return pits around the Isle of Neasied.
- Prevented Star Lizard loot bags from getting stuck mid-air.
Notes for 1.01.01 through 1.01.03 are summarized from update-tracking coverage rather than the developer's word-for-word posts; the Steam announcement history is authoritative if a detail matters.
Milestone: 100,000 Copies — November 4, 2026
Not a patch, but the biggest news of the launch window: on November 4, Freshly Baked Games announced the game had sold over 100,000 copies in its first five days, on more than 1,500 Steam reviews with a 95% positive rating at that point. Reporting around the patch coverage noted the two-person team had already broken even.
