This week's update touches a bit of everything: From cooking mechanics, to combat changes, to quality-of-life fixes that have been bugging me. There's a new enemy lurking in the fungal areas, and mutations are getting more dangerous to handle.
As always, I'd love to hear what you think. Jump into the Discord or drop feedback here, it all helps shape what comes next.
