[h3]Hi everyone,[/h3] Another big patch is ready to go live, and with that we are ready to introduce a mechanic that we talked about for quite a while! [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44182194/d4145b660be324cd8d3d27260eee60c7130da155.png[/img] The [b]alternative starting bags[/b] are here and we are very excited to see them in action! Another addition are [b]5 new Unique items[/b] that you can find in the shop if you're lucky! Also, we have thrown in a new Epic shop item, the [b]Unstable Recombobulator[/b] that helps you recycle items you no longer need.

We are planning to add one more major mechanic before full release, which will come in the next major update. Stay tuned for more details and potentially a beta branch popping up in the next few weeks! 🙂 [h2]Get the Ranger Plushie Now![/h2] We just launched another plushie campaign together with Makeship - the Ranger. She's super soft and comes with a Wooden Sword, a removable backpack that contains a Lucky Clover and a Goobert and you can even take off her hood!
