[h3]Hey everyone,[/h3]
It has been a wild week for us! A lot of streamers are covering Backpack Battles and right now it's the most played demo on Steam! So, thanks for checking the demo out and wishlisting the full game <3

We're only a two-person dev team and it's a surreal experience to see streamers we've been watching for years play our little indie game. Thank you so much <3
As you know, the game is still in early development and we'll add to it and tweak things every week.
This week, we're adding a crafted item, as well as a new autumn-themed skin for the Ranger. We are also working on improving the backpack management experience. You can now place bags onto other bags with items inside to swap them.
As always, you can check out all the balancing changes and fixes below, or in-game!
