The Store is Closed ALPHA Playtest · published · build 25064602
1 September 2026
The upgrade and dismantle tools now read as Hammer Tool and Screwdriver Tool, so they are not mistaken for the Hammer weapon of the same name.
The dowel bat recipe is unlocked from the start instead of needing to be discovered, so there is a weapon to build on the first crafting bench.
Improved menu performance.
Changing display settings now shows a ten second confirmation prompt that puts the old resolution back if you do not confirm, so an unreadable or off-screen mode can no longer strand you.
On-screen key prompts draw mouse buttons as a mouse with the pressed button lit, rather than a box lettered LMB, so a left or right click reads at a glance.
The Controls menu puts look speed at the top, above the key bindings, instead of below a list long enough to scroll past.
The Video menu puts display settings at the top, above the graphics quality options, to match where most games put them.
On-screen action prompts name what the button actually does: primary fire reads Attack, and the drag prompt appears only while something draggable is in front of you.
Fixed god mode not preventing damage: the cheat menu showed it switched on while the player still took hits and died.
Removed the Ghost cheat, which never did anything - the No Aggro toggle beside it already makes enemies ignore you.
Fixed tools reporting that they equip to a Weapon slot; the recipe panel now calls it the hand slot, which is what weapons, tools and consumables all share.
Fixed duct tape weighing 1kg a roll, ten times heavier than every other crafting material.
Fixed the look-speed slider ignoring click and drag, so the handle now follows the pointer instead of only jumping to where you click.
Fixed the what's new bulletin reappearing every time you returned to the main menu; it now shows once per update and stays shut after you close it.
Fixed resolution and window mode changes not applying correctly: picking a resolution forced fullscreen, the window shrank a little further with every change, and borderless and fullscreen could not be reached from windowed.
Fixed the flashlight switching itself back on a couple of seconds after you turned it off at night, and relighting whenever you took a hit; it now stays off until the next morning.
Co-op: Furniture flashes when a drag starts and again when it settles.
Co-op: Moving a light as a guest switches it off.
Saves: Loading a save made after a visit to the Pit sets you on fire on arrival.
Saves: Claiming a bed does not move your respawn; you still come back at the world spawn.
Store: Some furniture spawns badly placed - floating near steps, lying down, or facing the wrong way.
Store: Aisle sign lettering and framed photos z-fight at some angles - the text flickers as you walk past.
Store: Railings generate along edges with no drop, and are missing from some real ones.
Store: Fly mode has no way to gain or lose height.
Breakage: Eighteen materials across fifteen breakable pieces render flat grey once destroyed.
Menus: The Windows cursor shows through the in-game one over menu scrollbars.
Menus: The menus can feel sluggish and the cursor lags behind the mouse.
