- Navigation Arrow added to strike fear into any wandering bug - 29 September 2024
- Added Advanced Navigation It's an arrow rotating around Hounderick pointing him where he should go to continue the story. It's set off by default but you can activate it in the options menu.

As for the demo: - 2 more languages added. Simplified chinese and german (german isn't available for the fullversion yet cause that takes way longer to translate than the demo.) - Added Cutscene skipping Note that older versions of demo savefiles will not be compatible. Bug fixes for the fullversion: - Fixed Hounderick pretending he shot the laser attack when it was actually salamonty. - Fixed one of the frequent speeches for plants being set to check for story progression instead - Fixed getting possibly softlocked in newspaper quest (Bug I just discovered but may consider leaving since it's funny: if you already have the battle addict trophy i…
