Greetings, Abyss Explorers,

Update 0.3 is here, with major changes to gameplay and world design.

=> ⚠️ Please create a new world to experience all changes fully and avoid potential issues.

When the first explorers stepped into the Abyss, we realized one thing - the starting world wasn't living up to the mystery waiting below. So we rebuilt it.

Eldergrove 0.3 is no longer empty land. It now has three distinct regions, each with its own soul:

• Arvalen Grove: Where the ancient Sacred Tree Arvalen has stood through a thousand years of war. Wild boars, rabbits, and rare creatures few have ever found.

• Blueveil: A strange blue land where wolves, sheep, and wild horses roam together. No one knows why the grass and trees grow this color…

• Grassland: Where the journey begins. More familiar. But no longer as empty as before.

• Along with unique Slimes native to each region.

• Iron can now be mined directly in Eldergrove and the caves beneath the Abyss.

• Horses now have a saddle after being successfully tamed.

• New designs for the Diamond Sword and other high-tier weapons.

• Map layout streamlined for a more consistent and enjoyable exploration experience.

• Saddles added for select herbivore Dinosaurs.

• New creature for Eldergrove: Wild Boar.

• New creatures for Titanholm: Stag Awakened, Goat, Bear, Cursed Bear, Cursed Boar.

• Upgraded animal animations, riding feels better than ever.

• Buff/Debuff effects added to high-tier food items.

• General performance optimizations.

• Improved UI and controller interaction for Steam Deck.

• Performance optimized for higher FPS on Steam Deck.

• Fixed UI Setting interaction with the controller.

• Fixed mount name displaying too low on the creature.

• Fixed character not tracking the cursor on the character select screen.

• Fixed being able to interact with the campfire while jumping, as reported by Enri.

• Fixed UI Resolution displaying incorrectly.

• Fixed Pet freezing when attacked.

• Various minor bug fixes.

If you've been with us on this journey, a short review on Steam helps more explorers find Abyss. Thank you for your support.

Special thanks to Enri and Draconess for their valuable feedback during beta testing.
