- Obstacle popup now properly disables if you have the corresponding boot (thanks juulsezaar!)
- After crafting, Packie properly returns to his starting position instead of perma-floating 1 unit in the air
- Fixed light colliders on 4-things
- Dashing into no longer skips to the ending (thanks nexinex! ... and I think others reported this too and I just thought I fixed it)
- (thanks nexinex!)

loved the secret ending, to me all the passages felt really intuitive to find, which did add more to the satisfaction,.
tl:dr, great game to play at 4 AM, 5 stars

i pressed ctrl to harvest and w to move
it closed the tab
developer response: Fixed thank you!!
controls need to be fixed: "hold control to harvest" + "wasd to move" = ctrl+w being pressed and tab closes
developer response: Fixed! Thanks for the post o7
Saving doesn't seem to work?
developer response: ugh, I tried to fix the save bug that plagues itch.io games and it seems I've made it worse.
I'll get a fix in ASAP, thank you for your report!this should be fixed now!
If you want to go heavier into the 'incremental' side of things, maybe item multipliers in the form of craftable items would help? It can be a bit grindy at times. Great game though!
developer response: Love this idea! I definitely want to ease up on the grind! Thanks for playing and leaving feedback ☺️
You can left click instead of use ctrl.
Using a keyboard button WOULD be easier, but it'll have to be something that's not ctrl.
developer response: I set it to V for now, I'll be sure to add re-binding in a future patch!
