Reki here. Last week I lied and said there wouldn't be an update this week, but there totally is one. Just some fun/quality of life stuff. I thought up a way to do a pet system early this week, so I had to do it, so I did it, and then I kept thinking of other stuff I wanted to change real quick and it turned into a proper update. Next week will actually be no update.

CONTENT:

- The Familiar Shrine has been added to Great Grom Wall. Any egg hatched there will become your familiar. Familiars will follow you, attack enemies, and can carry an item. However, they need to be fed once a week, or they will starve to death.

- Scraps are now consumables that allow you to change your color. The color change is reset when you consume another scrap of the same color. You can also change the color of your familiar's ribbon.

- Updated visuals of Great Grom Wall wind traps to make them more distinct looking from the area's waterfalls.

GAMEPLAY TWEAKS:

- Item names now appear above the player when grabbed in equip mode.

- Increased chance of eggs spawning.

- Large creature can now lay eggs too, to increase the amount of possible Familiars.

- Items, NPCs, and other objects you can read more about now display a small talk prompt.

- Edible items are now labelled so in equip mode.

- Added text describing the effects when consuming some edible items.

- Shellbug Bludgeon is now found inside a chest.

FIXES:

- Small amounts of horizontal knockback, like Grom wind traps and Rotprawns, are no longer cancelled out when moving in the same direction. This makes them a lot smoother.

- Balloon Gunner can pick up things more reliably now.

- Start can no longer be rebound on controller, since the pause menu needs it.
