Hey folks,

A big thank you to everyone for playing and supporting the game thus far! It's been really exciting seeing everyone's reviews and responses, and we hear you about the difficulty! So, we've updated the game with some tweaks that should help alleviate a few common sticking points.

Level Tweaks:

"Carry" - slightly reworked to have a more straightforward solution

"Shear Strength" - fixed unintended solution

"Chamber of Duality" - Moved "Release" level to bonus area to better match it's difficulty

"Chamber of Duality" - Reduced number of levels required for porthole to open by 1

"Chamber of Transport" - Reduced number of levels required for porthole to open by 1

Pause Menu:

Added text next to sliders to explicitly show their values

Credits:

Added missing playtesters: Tetramouse + CakeDayZ (thank you again for playtesting, sorry I missed you the first time around!)
