v1.0.1 - Bug Fixes! And a big thank you to everyone!

Hey Everyone!

Wow, what a crazy few days! There have been so many new players and so much feedback flooding in! We're doing our best to stay on top of it all, especially the bugs. This update should hopefully take care of some of the bigger issues, but if not, don't hesitate to reach out!

Playtest Branch

Since we're a very small team with limited testing capabilities, we've set up a public testing branch here on Steam where we will be pushing new builds before rolling them out on for the live version of the game. This is accessible to everyone and allows users to test out their specific issues with the latest fixes (and also gives us a little buffer in case we break something new!).

If you want to access the test branch, there are instructions in the Cauldron Discord in the Playtest section. I'll be posting the specific fixes in each version, and the planned upcoming fixes.

Patch notes:

• Memory Leaks - There seemed to be a couple types that popped up for people, both in the overworld and within battles. I've hopefully taken care of these now, but let me know if you still encounter them!
• Item Menu Error - Equipping items, specifically while using the mouse, would crash the game for some people. This should hopefully be fixed as well!
• Fish fade out faster in the fishing game after being caught, reducing the clutter
• Hearth's special no longer triggers while she's outside the cart in the minecart minigame
• Fixed some oddities with the map, including some headless trees and floating pixels
• The electric effect in the minecart minigame now matches the transparency of the other attacks
• Fighting Pits now show the correct progress instead of Battletown's
• Mage town NPC's word bubble is now off-white, so certain hints are easier to see
• Fixed an issue when refunding the augment upgrades in the minecart minigame, where you could pocket extra crystals by refunding
• A bunch of typos

Bug Reports

If you want to leave a bug report, you can do that either on the Discord or in the Steam forums. We're tracking as fast as we can! 😅

Welcome everyone

A huge welcome to all the new members of the community, and a thanks for your patience with these pesky launch bugs!
