Game update23 Aug 2026v. 0.60.06With this small update, the new location will be even more useful. Have fun! Changes: - Decreased the chances of Eggs to spawn - Fixed 'new outfit' message every time you kill a shroomster after getting the achievement - Fixed 'you already have this outfit' message every time you get praised by the Manager

Changes: · Increased new location spawn chance to 99% · Fixed failed missions caused by failed map generation · Fixed the easter egg you probably haven't found anyway Thank you for your bug reports and feedback!

Here is the breakdown of what's actually changed. The "New" Demo Experience I already ga…
