Hey Everyone,
This patch introduces proper Steam multiplayer support. You no longer need to open ports or give people your ip address. Simply click and invite friends or make a public server. Hint: make games private if you don't want anyone who you haven't invited to join.
We've also improved crafting, added paint, a craftable berry pouch, fixed a bunch of bugs and lots more, all listed below.
Old save games should continue to work, however if you notice anything weird start from a new game to ensure everything is up to date.
As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub or send them in to support@endnightgame.com.
