Greetings Novices,The abbot thanks thee for thy reports of bugs. And thy assistance.Hotte Fix 1.0.2.5:-Fixed an issue where selling a perk before buying one in that session causes a bug preventing correct sale-Fixed issue where Reset and Back buttons where not displaying correctly on the Remap Controls page when accessed via Titles options rather than in game.-Fixed an issue where you may have got enemies in events even if you had set said enemy spawn rate to be zero.-Reduced max ghosts per batch of enemy spawn in Haunting Event to prevent drastic "over hauntings".

Greetings Novices!Notice, you can file any bugs in game by pressing F1 while playing.Hotte fixe 1.0.2.4:-further work on colliders around check out desk to prevent books sometimes clipping into the check out room and getting stuck. (If you see this happen, I'm really keen to see a Steam video/recording of this, or to know what key presses/steps I can take to reproduce it here, so do drop by discord if you can help).

Greetings Novices,Apologies to clog up your bandwidth with a further update so soon. But I wanted to make a small speculative fix to address a problem a few people reported, that of books clipping into the scribes checkout room on rare occasions.

Let me know if you encounter this though again. Ideally steam video of the event would be handy. Also fixed some achievements.If you encountered this and have a save with a book in the

Greetings Novices!Thanks to everyone who picked up the game, we really appreciate your support!Just a quick one - I've got a hotfix that fixes a rare bug that was causing books to self destruct repeatedly at the dock. Oddly, once triggered, this would persist between sessions. So this was quite a strange one and also quite annoying if you were affected, so apologies if you came across this. A big thanks to those who reported the bug and who also came to discord to help me figure it out. Turns out, accidentally destroying a book while checking it out triggered this behaviour. This hotfix ... fi
