Hi everyone, We’ve been quiet over the past few days because we’ve been focused on resolving some core issues with how the game saves data. Communication is critical during Early Access, so we want to inform you about what’s happening. [h3][b]Why Refactoring the Save System is Important[/b][/h3] Refactoring the save system is critical, requiring careful testing to avoid missing any edge cases or issues with different hardware configurations. Any missteps could lead to progress loss, which we’re working hard to prevent. [h3][b]Preventing Data Corruption[/b][/h3] Our ongoing work should also significantly reduce—if not entirely remove—the risk of data corruption if something interrupts the saving process. Some players have experienced this issue, which made the game unplayable until the corrupted save data was manually deleted. [hr][/hr][h3][b]Current Progress & Next Steps[/b][/h3] The results are promising, but we need to do more testing internally and with our play-testers (who have been an invaluable help so far!). You can expect an update on this very soon. [h3][b]Addressing Feedback: Game Mechanics & Clarity[/b][/h3] We’ve also reviewed your feedback to identify areas where game mechanics aren't clearly explained. Given the game's many interrelated systems, ensuring everything is easy to understand is crucial for a smooth player experience. [hr][/hr][h3][b]Tutorial and UI Updates[/b][/h3] As a result, we’re updating the tutorial, tooltips, and UI to enhance clarity while also simplifying specific mechanics that just added complexity without adding depth. [h3][b]Upcoming Patch Timeline[/b][/h3] We hope to roll out a patch that addresses these issues within the next few days and will keep you posted on our progress. [hr][/hr][h3][b]Future Plans: Meta-Progression and Content Expansion[/b][/h3] Once the foundation is solid, we’ll expand the meta-progression system and add more content. We can't wait to reach that stage and continue developing Breachway with your feedback and suggestions. Thanks again for all your support—it means a lot to us! Please continue sharing your feedback and thoughts in Steam reviews. It's the best way to let us know what you like, what you would like changed, and much more.
