Demo Patch Notes

Fracture Field · published 21 Jan 2026, 21:57 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Thank you to everyone who has tried out the demo! I have received overwhelmingly positive feedback so far and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching all the YouTube videos. Throughout watching those videos I have noticed small things that can be improved and decided to put out a small patch for the demo.

If you have enjoyed the demo please add a review. I read every review and take the feedback into consideration for future updates. It also helps very much with visibility and I would greatly appreciate it!!

General Improvements

  • CTRL + Click to max purchase an upgrade

  • Crit upgrades will now be hidden until clay is unlocked (crits aren't effective on stone due to one shotting them so early on)

  • The rock layer acuity upgrade now has a max level of 4 since it doesn't add much impact once you can one shot the layer. World Fracture (prestige) will remove the max level limit with the Core Extraction upgrade.

Tip Improvements

  • Added an indication that there's another tip pending

  • Added a tip that bombs can use the X key to place

  • Added a tip that explains the keys in the corner of various UI elements are hotkeys

  • Added a tip for upgrading your tool for the first time

Bug Fixes

  • First rock hit of each session was not triggering the sound effect

  • When placing bombs the red ring was sometimes remaining on screen

  • Resource generation was not always showing the text animation in the currency header

  • The upgrade tooltip will now hide when moving the cursor outside of the upgrade (previously it would continue showing if you moved your mouse onto the tooltip itself)
