• Hotfix - Inventory Freeze Fix & Combat Tweaks - 7 September 2026

  A small hotfix is now live addressing an ongoing issue where certain interactions with inventories - particularly chests - could cause the game to partially or completely freeze. This hotfix includes changes aimed at resolving the issue. Other small tweaks: • Ticks now have a short pause between initiating their attack and launching themselves at the player, giving you a fairer chance to dodge their pesky attacks. • Blocking will now cancel the current melee attack animation, allowing for much more reactive and responsive blocks during combat. I very much apologize for any frustration caused by the inventory freezes. If you continue to experience them after this hotfix, please reach out through the Steam Discussions or the official Discord and, if possible, share what you were doing leading up to the freeze. Any additional details will help me investigate the issue further. Venture safe!

• Patch 0.1.11 - 31 August 2026

  Fixes, performance improvements, quality of life settings, and a handful of new items. Patch Notes Added VSync to the settings menu. Added an optional FPS display toggle. Made some ongoing optimization improvements which should help reduce stuttering and improve FPS in certain areas of the game. Fixed an issue with the Pale Devourer where worms with fewer remaining segments could stay above ground for only a very brief amount of time, making the fight more difficult and unpredictable than intended. Added a handful of new armor pieces and weapons, obtainable through various parts of the game including merchants, quests, Mimics, and chests. This is a small first step toward adding more item variety throughout progression and making individual playthroughs feel a little less predictable. More additions along these lines are planned for a larger fall update - stay tuned.

• Version Update 0.1.10 - Afflicted Enemies, Starvation Changes and Wiki update - 25 July 2026

  This smaller update makes afflicted enemies more dangerous, strengthens the consequences of starvation, and announces a major update to the Mistaken Fandom wiki. Afflicted enemy changes: • Afflicted enemies are now twice as likely to appear during the night. • Afflicted enemies are now 1.5 times more likely to appear on Mistake difficulty. • These increased appearance chances stack when playing on Mistake difficulty during the night. • Afflicted enemies now deal 1.8 times their normal damage. Hunger and starvation changes: A lot of feedback has pointed towards hunger, and starvation in particular, not feeling like a noticeable enough threat. • Starving now completely disables the player’s health regeneration. • When time progresses while starving and awake, the player loses 20% of their maximum health. • Hunger-consuming activities such as fishing, mining, and chopping trees now also de…

• Version Update 0.1.9 - Reforging Overhaul, New Items, quality of life and other - 17 July 2026

  This update reworks the Blacksmith’s reforging system, adjusts the balance between Transcended and Whispering items, and introduces several quality-of-life improvements. It also adds six new items, improved ultrawide support, and a collection of smaller fixes and balancing changes. Blacksmith and reforging changes The Blacksmith’s reforging system has been reworked and no longer assigns completely random item quality. Reforging now improves items through gradual quality increments. The chance of a successful upgrade decreases as the item approaches higher quality levels. Afflicted Reforging has been renamed to Whispering Reforging. The maximum affix multiplier from Whispering Reforging has been reduced from 1.8x to 1.6x. A perfectly rolled Whispering item can still surpass a Transcended item, but Whispering Reforging should no longer be the obvious choice over regular Blacksmith reforgi…

• Version Update 0.1.8 - 4 July 2026

  Version Update 0.1.8 - Craft from chests, Keybindings, Blocking and Other Improvements This update focuses on improving combat feel, adding custom keybindings, and fixing several gameplay issues reported by players. Gameplay and quality of life: Added blocking and counter attacks. Hold the block button, default right mouse button or left trigger on controller, to reduce incoming damage. If timed perfectly, blocking will nullify incoming damage and give the player a short counter attack window, boosting their next attack. Added keybindings to the settings menu, allowing controls to be customized. Added sleeping bags, which can be consumed to skip the night while out exploring. Dashing once again happens immediately when pressing the dash key, and now leads into sprinting if the button is held. DPS meter placement has been adjusted and should no longer overlap with other UI elements. Adde…

• Version Update 0.1.7 - 6 June 2026

  Quality of Life and Gameplay Feel This update focuses on improving gameplay feel, crafting station behavior, and a few smaller fixes. Gameplay and quality of life: Added sprinting. Hold the dash button to sprint. Dashing now activates when releasing the dash button, rather than when pressing it. Improved combat feel. Enemies should now feel less unfair when leaping or shooting toward the player. Crafting station improvement: Breaking or stopping a crafting station that used an item with affixes, such as weapons or armor, will now correctly remember those affixes and return the item as it was. Bug fixes: Flying enemies can now correctly drop Whispers of Affliction. Corrected the unlocked tiers for mana potions. Fixed some graphical issues when transitioning between dungeons and the overworld. Added more missing item translations.

• Version Update 0.1.6 - 5 June 2026

  Cartifact Catalogue A new Cartifact Catalogue has been added to help players track their collected and missing Cartifacts. New feature: Added a Cartifact Catalogue that keeps track of all Cartifacts collected by the player. The catalogue makes it easier to see which Cartifacts are still missing or undiscovered.

This update also includes a few smaller fixes and quality of life improvements: Added more details to item tooltips, including whether placeable items require shelter. Improved some tutorial-related elements in the early game.

• Small Hotfix - Version 0.1.3 - 31 May 2026

  This small hotfix focuses on minor fixes, building flow improvements, and missing localization references. • Corrected the displayed cost for the Clock of Affliction. • Added a small notification when trying to upgrade a bag that is already the same size or larger. • Fixed an issue where coins would not drop on Easy difficulty. • Slightly improved the flow and behavior of the building mode toolbar. • Added several missing translation references.

• Version update 0.1.2 - 30 May 2026

  This hotfix focuses on improving combat flow, fishing, building controls, and a few frustrating edge cases. Bait is no longer consumed when starting to fish. Instead, bait now has a 50% chance to be consumed when reeling in, regardless of whether a fish is caught or not. Health and mana potions now use a real-time cooldown of 30 seconds. This means potions can be used multiple times during a level or boss fight, as long as you wait for the cooldown. The player is now briefly protected from damage when transitioning between levels or entering dungeons, helping prevent accidental damage during loading or movement transitions. The player is also briefly protected after defeating a boss, reducing the chance of dying before being able to collect dropped loot. Stored Affliction can now only be consumed up to 99 Whispers of Affliction to prevent accidental deaths. This does not apply to classe…
