Dear Protectors of the Light,

We’re happy to bring you our latest Content Update!

This is our last Update before the holiday period and we wanted to make sure we were able to release some tasty treats for you. With our V0.3.0 Update you can look forward to a New Nightmare, a New Building, New Malices and Blessings along with a host of Quality of Life improvements.

We’ve got work scheduled out for the next year looking to deliver on a host of new Patches, Content Updates and eventually Campaign and Multiplayer.

While we’ll be on break until early next year, we will have a team of people on standby and checking in periodically. So as always please continue to report bugs to our Steam forums or in the bug reporting channel on our Discord, as we’re constantly monitoring those channels.

Check out the full patch notes below:
