We keep working on making our game even better.
You have given us a lot of input and we are very thankful for that.
By the way, you can watch live how we work on the improvements. Just check out our Twitch-Channel (twitch.tv/binaryimpact), where almost every day one of our developers is streaming live to answer your questions and look at issues.
We also managed to save 400 MB of RAM in all chapter 1 levels. This is an optimization of the dialogue system. We hope that we can reduce the load on your systems this way.
If you have any questions regarding Beam or want to leave us feedback, you can directly reach our community manager Zinni by mail ([email protected]), join our Discord or send a DM in one of our socials.
