Patch Notes 0.1

Chop Chains · published 12 Jan 2026, 18:35 UTC · build 21359588

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

🆕 New

• Axes now require a specific skill to be unlocked.
• Added a 1-second fade when switching music tracks.
• Added a new achievement: Mini Slime Army
(Fill your plains with only mini slime trees — no map size requirement).
• Added the ability to choose between DirectX 11 or DirectX 12.
• Rearranged the top-right buttons into a stacked menu when clicked.

🔧 Updates

• Rebirth no longer resets your axes or your forest.
You still need to unlock access again via:
– Axe Shop skill
– Forest skill

🐛 Fixes

• Fixed the Buy All Skills achievement (325/325 was missing a skill in the skill tree).
• Fixed a bug where older players were not receiving the new achievement.
• Light modifications to Steam Cloud saves to fix errors for some players.
• Fixed WASD camera movement issues caused by AZERTY / QWERTY layout conflicts.
• Fixed tutorial progression (Void Tree was opening before purchasing the skill).
• Fixed an issue where the previously equipped axe appeared black when restarting the game (now displays the correct color).
