Patch Notes:
Features
- Added Photo Mode
- This new ability can be unlocked after providing some assistance to a new character - The Photographer! You’ll find her at a new camp on an island to the south of The Marrows.
- Added Passive Mode
- This mode can be activated at any stage by selecting the option from the Settings menu. In this mode, you’ve nothing to fear from the creatures of the deep.
- Added 10 new aberrations
- Added 8 new types of wildlife for you to encounter, including one that isn’t afraid of the shallows...
- Added new settings
- V-sync
- Pause In Background - the default behaviour of this has changed so that the game does not pause when it loses focus.

- Spyglass Sensitivity - sliders for horizontal and vertical movement.

- V-sync
Adjustments
- Added a new “General” tab to Settings and moved some options around.
- Added a couple of new names to the credits.
- Updated Dolphin SFX.
- Dolphins and some other events are discouraged from swimming over the abyss of Stellar Basin.
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the Crab Pot / Trawl Net information panel didn’t show correctly the first time if the game was loaded with either of these abilities pre-selected.
- Fixed an issue where the game could freeze when downgrading a trawl net to another net with a smaller internal capacity.
- Fixed an issue where discarding the package from The Mayor never removed the associated map marker.
- Fixed an issue where an island in Devil’s Spine was culling incorrectly.
- Fixed some localization issues.
And for our speedrunning community...
- The Haste activation SFX does not play if Haste was deactivated recently.
- The game now reports a few values to an Autosplitter.
