September Public Patch
🕑 Added 2021-09-07 20:52:43 +0000 UTCGreetings Space Citizens!
Our most requested feature has finally arrived! There is now a progress tracker that will tell you exactly how far along you are in the game's current content. Not only that, but we've included a bunch of quality-of-life enhancements that should make discovering companion quests much easier!
This patch also wraps up the War of the Words questline with a grand finale, and we've also overhauled parts I and II! There's a rather neat reward at the end of the series that should prove pretty useful at the shops! We've also added scenes for the work areas that introduce your boss at each respective site! There are also a ton of smaller changes and fixes with bonuses and features that we hope you'll love.
As always, feel free to chat with us on Discord. Stay safe, and see you next month!
With the love of pie in all our hearts,
-The SNB Team
