Pathfinder Patch [1.0.2]: Cutscenes, Voice Acting, Map Improvements, and More
INAYAH - Life after Gods · published · build 18072778
Greetings, Pathfinders!
It’s me, the High Pathfinder—though my friends just call me Jasper! We saw each other not too long ago, yet so much has happened! Inayah suddenly started talking differently, but don’t worry! It’s definitely her, not some weird bug—I checked! What else? Clio drew some new illustrations, though they’re not about the ancient gods… you’ll see for yourself! Oh, and I almost forgot the most important thing: I’ve redrawn your map so you won’t get lost—otherwise Inayah and I would have to come looking for you!
I think that’s everything, but if I missed something, you can read all the details below.
In the list below, items marked with [🧭] were added thanks to your feedback! We greatly value every opinion and strive to make the gameplay experience as smooth as possible.
New Content
- New slides for Jasper’s endings
- Added cutscenes for the Mad Chief and the Archon
A frame from the Mad Chief’s cutscene:
And this is just the beginning—we have plenty more new modes, improvements, and cutscenes planned… until the game turns into a full-fledged cartoon (and that’s no joke…).
Tell us which cutscenes or other features you’d like to see!
Voice Acting
- 🧭Fixed and balanced the volume for many characters
- 🧭Re-recorded part of Inayah’s lines
Full voice acting is quite an ambitious undertaking for a studio our size, and overall we’re proud of it—even if a few issues cropped up. You rightly pointed them out.
We’re working closely with Jessica Carroll, our voice actress, and have already redone some of the early lines. We plan to keep refining the voiceovers going forward.
General
- 🧭You can now open the local map for any room, not just the one you’re currently in.
This was one of those features we didn’t have time to finish before launch, but due to a large number of requests, we made it a priority.
Thank you for sharing your ideas and feedback. While we can’t always respond right away to everything, we definitely read every comment.
🧭For example, by your request in the hotfix, we added an autosave system—just in case you missed that news.
Controls
- Fixed a bug where using the Injector on the stick conflicted with D-Pad controls
- Increased the default “dead zone” (Threshold) for the gamepad stick, now adjustable in (Settings => Gamepad)
We received a lot of feedback about the character sometimes behaving oddly or turning around unexpectedly. We raised the base dead zone and gave you the option to fine-tune it to your liking.

- “The Maze of Living Whiplashes” now fully supports Blade traversal
- The Barnacle no longer dies from spikes in the “Forest of Torn Wings”

- Tweaked the position of certain thought bubbles
- Nix no longer “walks in place”

- Root of Evil: added hints for quest order and Rongo’s location

Interface
- 🧭Added the ability to create Implant presets
You asked for it—we made it, and we love using it ourselves! Now you can configure Implant “loadouts” for any situation.
Global Map Improvements:
- Fixed conditions under which bosses appear on the global map
- Fixed how the task list frames display in the journal
- Added marker displays to the global map panel
