Following the release of today’s update, Peak publisher Aggro Crab also touched on the prospect of future updates. Interestingly enough, the developer is keeping a tight lid on the future, and has noted that it doesn’t know when more content will come. For now, the team plans on putting the majority of its focus on stability and squashing bugs. That might not be as exciting as a big roadmap outlining new biomes and other additions, but clearly the focus right now is on finding ways to improve the current game and make it more enjoyable for all players. Full patch notes from the game’s official Steam page can be found below:
PATCH NOTES v. 1.20.a
FEATURES
- Added a new biome that replaces the Alpine: the MESA. The MESA will be present in every run for the next week – after which future maps will rotate randomly between the Mesa and Alpine.
- 10 new badges to collect! – New cosmetics as rewards for badges!
- Several new items were added! (And a couple more we won’t tell you about!):
- Balloons
- Scout Cannon
- Parasol
- Sunscreen
- Aloe Vera
- Dynamite
- There may be a surprise waiting for you in The Kiln…
OPTIONS
- There is now a “Bug Phobia Mode” option for players who don’t want to see arachnids and other creepy crawlies because, you guessed it, the Mesa has some of those.
- The Settings menu is now navigable via controller. Finally!
BALANCE
- The fog rises slightly slower in the Tropics.
- The Heat status will now decay faster, but it will take a bit longer to start decaying, and the hot rocks in the Caldera will inflict more Heat on you.
BUGFIXES
- Improved performance across the board on the mountain.
- Fixed an issue where players could teleport after a rusty piton they were hanging onto breaks.
- Fixed players sometimes obtaining the Naturalist Badge despite eating packaged food.
- Prevented players from interacting with their backpack while passed out.
- Adjusted luggage collision to prevent players from getting their legs stuck in it
- Fixed an issue where the Bugle of Friendship would still play its audio and visual effects when out of juice.
- Fixed an issue where biome-specific loot could sometimes show up in luggage in the wrong biome.
