We're extremely excited to announce Patch 2023!

The game's engine has been upgraded, unlocking a world of new possibilities and making development smoother.

We are moving into the next generation and you can now play 3rd person view if you wish so. Every view mode has its pros and quirks.

The game's content has grown significantly with the word count doubling. And many new features added. You'll now encounter a host of new NPCs with fresh dialogues, adding depth to the game world.

Join the ranks of fearless invaders in the new "Invasion" mode. With a simple click in the main menu, you can infiltrate other players' games, assuming control of a Loif spider. Rack up kills to earn rewarding spoils, and if you find yourself outmatched, you can always return to the main menu for another attempt. It's a chance to battle for currency and supremacy.

You can now collect wood, metal, and stone. Utilize these materials to craft a wider variety of items and even construct your own structures.

In a significant change, you'll now need to complete the game and start a New Game Plus to carry your character forward. This means you can't start a new game at any time and retain your items, anymore.

The "Epic" graphics setting has received a substantial upgrade. Keep in mind that it may require a bit more hardware power.

Added some more adventure/rpg features. Some riddles are "hard'ish" to resolve, but if you know what you are doing, its a snap.
