Hello Spotters! Welcome UPDATE 1.0.4.3 and some news from us.

This release week has been incredibly intense and exciting for us, even if a bit sleepless. Your support inspires us to keep making the game better and more fun! Starting next week, we begin work on a content patch, so get ready to play through the game again, haha.

We’ve reviewed your feedback and can confirm that you’ll be able to travel to the city of LAS VEGANOS by car and explore it on foot. What exactly you’ll be doing there will remain a mystery for now. Repairing the receiver will now require not only resources but also repair parts, which you’ll need to find or earn by completing tasks. After finishing the game, we’ve also decided to reward you with a special Wi-Fi shovel, which will unlock a unique mission for the president. And this is just the beginning of our plans. Stay tuned, there’s more to come!

We’re wrapping up this week with a patch full of improvements.

Now onto the update changes:

Added the ability to collect money using the vacuum.
The “Babai” in the horror bunker can now be killed with a rifle (we will soon add effects and an HP bar for it).
Save file size has been optimized for proper Cloud Saves functionality. It should now work reliably.
Fixed white screen freeze after teleportation.
Fixed infinite stamina bug.
Fixed items getting stuck in the air when loading autosaves.
Fixed a bug where the player could spawn under the map when loading a new day.
Removed the default 30 FPS cap for Steam Deck.
Added the ability to close the artifact selection window and choose later.
Increased the number of car parts and added more spawn locations.
Added a new ground surface material in the bunker area.
Artifact achievement now unlocks after collecting 6 items.
Added sound feedback when turning the vacuum on and off.
Fixed flashlight upgrade functionality.
Turret camera shake now only works when the player is inside it.
Detector now shows artifacts (we will expand this feature in the next patch).
Slightly reduced radio volume.
General minor map improvements.

Restart Steam, download the patch, and have a great weekend!
