In our first update for @playprologue, we focused on performance, bugs reported by our community, and continued to add depth to our worlds. Some highlights: Rolling Weather fronts, new Pedometer & Thermometer, expanded battery system, shareable seeds/maps, smoother forest traversal, upgraded audio & atmosphere, world polish, new languages, and tons of fixes, including new audio sliders (with a dedicated character-voice slider for misophonia). We also fixed these issues in a hotfix today: Fixed custom audio settings resetting, custom maps reverting on load, and achievements not unlocking in Survive/Free Roam. Rolling Weather transitions also improved storms, now visibly building on the horizon. See you at the weather tower 🧸

We're incredibly proud to share that Prologue: Go Wayback! has won the Dutch Game Award for Best Technology! Huge thanks to our amazing team, our community, and everyone who has followed along on this wild adventure.
