  Daybreak Update Now Live!

  Hi, everyone. Ryan here, creator of Wicked Seed.Daybreak is now live! A big thank to you to everyone who took the time to test Daybreak on the beta branch and leave feedback and report bugs.I started working on this update right after The Pit released in May and it has grown to be much larger than just an epilogue. Featuring adjustments to The Pit, overhauling a lot of the back end to reduce memory consumption, load times, and cut the install size by about 1/3. Not to mention localization, new weapons, costumes, and a bunch more stuff.I will include the complete patch notes below, made up of the initial patch notes release and all subsequent updates it received while on the beta branch.The demo has also been updated to be in code parity with the main version, taking advantage of the memory optimizations, reduced install size, additional costumes, and visual updates.Note:To anyone who played on the beta branch using their existing save file, please follow the steps in this post if you'd like to revert that test save file into a save file that can be continued on the main version: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2767530/discussions/0/583931105981276824/DaybreakDaybreak is a new addition to the story and takes place immediately after the events of the game's ending.Daybreak uses a new save file separate from your main game save, but the costumes and weapons found within Daybreak will be added to your main game save files after completionNew Daybreak exclusive challenges have been added. The challenge points awarded for these are added to your global points total to be used in the Extras shop3 new weapons have been addedOver 40 new lines of dialogue have been recordedFeatures some changes to the encounter system, allowing you more freedom in movement with encounter blocks being used sparingly.
