Hey all!

Almost half a year after the launch, we are happy to present you 1.1 content update, coupled with Nintendo Switch release. The game is also Steam Deck verified now and should run smoothly on your Steam Decks.

We've added one new boss fight on the second map and some new trinkets that we wanted to see in the final version of the game.

You can check out the Nintendo Switch version here.

Thank you for playing our games!
