Release 1.0 highlights
- Content: layers 6 to 11, endings, 2 new characters, prosthetics, Endless mode, new traps, more plushies, more E-PDA notes.
- Quality of life: item colours and labels, opiate and venom on the health panel, a sound cannon indicator, wider attack hitboxes, measurement unit choice, lockpicking kit works from anywhere in your inventory, a liquid-safe area when entering a layer.
- Balance: hunger and thirst moodles appear earlier, campfires warm more, antivenom and the soothing crystal are buffed, drill pods hurt less, amputation is easier and allowed on healthy limbs, both legs can be lost.
- Unchipped: no radiation line, shows dislocations and fractures, a different exit sequence.
- Achievements: certain console commands outside the sandbox disable them.
