  Lovecraftian festival BIG Munch rework, polish, bug fixes patch

  Hey all, We've done a big overhaul of the game, so this update includes some major changes along with bug fixes and polishing. Would love to know what you think! We're already working on a few more bug fixes and polish for the next update. If you want to keep on supporting us, please leave a Steam review, it really helps! \m/ ------- Important: Since there are a lot of big changes, your old save file might cause some problems. I suggest deleting your old save file via the Options menu to avoid any issues. Game Structure & Progression Revamped Game Progression: We replaced the old Objectives-based structure with a vertical progression to make it clearer how to progress. Islands Update: We replaced the old large maps with smaller focused areas. Gameplay Changes Reworked Munch Mechanic: Instead of devouring countless small spheres, you now consume a single, big chunk of food as a reward. It’s faster and far less tedious. New Progression Indicators: During loading screens, you’ll now see your run progression, highlighting which evolutions you’ve yet to try and how far along you are. Knockback added: Smaller enemies now get launched by your heavy blows. Improved Player Feedback: New visual effects for taking damage and receiving altered states have been added. UI Overhaul: Every interface has been redesigned and polished to meet a higher quality standard. Updated sections include the HUB, Pause Menu, Loading Screen, Main Menu, and the new Map Screen. Limb Upgrades Rework: This underused mechanic has been revised. Each evolution now leads to secondary effects tied to abilities, adding depth to your build choices. Full Game Rebalance: Some trait and enhancement combinations previously resulted in overpowered builds capable of one-shotting everything. We've fine-tuned values to make planning and different builds more rewarding. Simplified Healing: Healing Orbs are now automatically absorbed by the player. Bug Fixes Tentacles are now visible again. Lava puddles no longer per...

So more fixes and updates are coming..!

  Content Creators: Stream as a Monster!

  If you're a content creator and want to do something a little different over the Winter sale season, you can stream as Gutpuncher, Painkiller, or Ordo, using AnyMeCam. You'll show up as the monster in your stream and it'll track your facial expressions and hand movements! It's a little experiment we're trying to make the stream more intersting! Learn how to stream as a Monster here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ImSzF5QYzFat3v-Z_rJUmxflkulPY1QU/view?usp=drive_link {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44154263/6405d03ac449eba68ecd153b8744f6e1805ac2f8.jpg{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44154263/1747bdf24ca103002340ab6a53ad94dc060be3ef.jpg{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44154263/39fcffbb29f5174c6579b11f2c61f3cdaec8c97e.jpg
