Curse of the Nether Regions

v0.1.2 Summary We are now hard at work on Chapter 2, but that doesn't mean we won't still be squashing bugs and improving the overall experience. This small update brings some nice new quality of life features and things players have been asking for. Below is the full list of changes. Content Updates Equipment menu updated to display the current stat modifiers of equipment and enchantments Camera tracking improved, and manual camera adjustment added (hold up or down to pan the camera) Updated the weapon attack display to show the weapon's base damage to hopefully make the numbers more intuitive Catnip returns! Catnip now appears in the forest (even after the Alraune is defeated). He will leave again in v0.2.0 to his intended location, but now players won't be locked out of his sticker & items after beating the boss. Bug Fixes Fixed an animation bug when back dashing against a wall Fixed an animation bug where the Hellhound's gill light layer wouldn't stay properly synced to the animation v0.1.1 Summary The demo has been out for two weeks now and the overall feedback has been fantastic! Thank you all so much for your support thus far, it means the world to us! This patch is mainly targeted at fixing bugs discovered after the initial launch as well as smoothing out the player experience here and there. This will provide a solid foundation as we build Chapter 2! Content Updates Upgraded engine runtime to 2026LTS (Hopefully this will fix the input lag issue present on certain AMD graphics cards) Made the Bernard sticker easier to get and added the option to retry his event (talk to him and Fia in the Tavern) Extended the button remap/rebind feature to include all game inputs (movement keys and menu keys) on both keyboard and controller Increased the speed of the aerial attack for heavy weapons to make it easier to use close to the ground Temporary bridge art in the caves replaced with final artwork Added a Vsync option to the main menu settings (may also help those experiencing the input lag bug with AMD cards) Added a new slide tutorial in the forest to improve player onboarding Corruption reduction removed from the Casual difficulty Updated many pieces of dialog and added new expressions for Bernard during dialog Added an NPC directing players up the stairs to the church to make it more obvious that they are traversable Added the ability to skip dialog outside of cutscenes (mapped to Y on controller and X on keyboard by default) Updated the art for the levers in the platforming puzzle in the Shine of the Matriarch Added button prompts to the sell window Item descriptions updated to more accurately describe their effects Added a tutorial bulletin board to the gallery that describes how to unlock scenes Scenes now unlock for free in the gallery when you "bad end" naturally New achievements added to the Steam build of the game Vines added to the caves to block off the hive nest until players are more well equipped to handle the encounter Added markers on the map showing the locations of the mini save checkpoints (major fast travel save points were already shown in red) Bug Fixes Fixed a bug in the spell menu UI that caused the game to crash Fixed bug causing the Frillodon to deal less corruption than expected and not award the cherry sticker Fixed a bug where the map position was not updating in the dead version of the forest Fixed a bug where the sword animation played incorrectly after turning during crouch Fixed a bug where the Frillodon could be duplicated if his scene was skipped at the right time Fixed a bug where the incorrect button prompts were shown during the struggle mini game Fixed a bug where the Rift would continue spawning enemies on the main menu after dying or quitting out Fixed a bug causing a couple Steam achievement to not properly track progress Fixed a bug that cuased the slime to fall through the platform after the breakout animation Fixed a bug preventing the tavern music from stopping when quitting to the main menu Fixed a bug where the game would crash upon dying to the hive swarm Addendum Welp immediately after release a critical bug was found and fixed, so the build has been updated. You know you have the correct version if the title screen says "Public Alpha Demo 1.1b" v0.1.0 initial zone release
