Good news everyone! We've been loving your response to our demo so far, and so... it's being extended until the end of April✨

Our team has been hard at work after receiving your feedback, here's what we'll be implementing in this patch!

Thank you for all your support, and please continue giving us any feedback - it helps a lot 💗

Fixes and changes

  • Main Menu added before game start.
  • Quit game added to the settings menu.
  • Pause menu added.
  • Fixing the mirror swap crystal dialogue to play the correct version.
  • Tutorial updates will now pop up after the first tutorial has popped.
  • Missions now pop in right after the cinematic ends, even when skipping it.
    (This used to cause issues with the missions if you skipped the cutscene)
  • Updated quest Goddess statue logic so that the mission & quest items are added correctly to Aurora when skipping the cinematic.
  • Removed the time turner from Aurora once picking up Sun Planet as more bugs were starting to be introduced!
  • Fixed an issue with the mirror swap cinematic continually playing after first interacting with it.
  • Fixed an issue with missions not triggering correctly from skipping cutscenes.
  • Fixed an issue with the 'Power The Telescope' mission triggering after interacting with the Gaia statue.

Have fun!

Please let us know any feedback via the Steam Community Hub, Bluesky, Instagram, X or our Discord server (currently under renovations)
