1.0.0_12004 - More balance and bugfixes!

Meowllo! You may have noticed a flurry of updates over the past few days, we've been hard at work polishing things up and taking all of your feedback and bug reports into account! 🥴

Here's the batch of updates that have been made since our last patch note:

⛏ Mines

• Clearing last layers of voxel piles will no longer cause you to sometimes fall through the floor
• Valuable resource rooms will now be guarded by slightly more enemy spawns
• Earth Slimes now heal amount 5 -> 10
• No more rain sounds while within the mine floor areas
• Earth Slime: HP 40 -> 130
• Mines buffs that affect stamina no longer apply outside of the mines
• "Curse" now increases enemy spawn rate as well as enemy drop rate, damage, and increases their overall HP
• Myst piles are guarded more frequently by enemies
• Myst piles show up less frequently on earlier floors
• Log machines now properly collide with the player
• Additional balancing work to make sure nothing is breaking the economy 🙂

🏎 Kart

• Fuel consumption gem effects/mines buffs now properly affect the drill's fuel consumption
• HOV Unit now can activate multiple times midair before it runs out (so you can let it go early/reboost)
• Added a speedometer to the fuel meter

😻 NPCs

• Fixed an issue where daily dialogue lines would keep repeating until you saved/loaded the game again
• Mack is now able to be confessed to
• Fixed an issue where it was possible to trigger two different heart/friendship events at the same exact time
• No longer stack on top of each other, and will walk away from each other if they get too close to one another

• Watering Can now properly gives you an "out of water" message when you're out of water
• Harvest and Seed planting animations now allow you to move, and are much shorter in duration
• Sprinklers no longer block the harvest/seed planting actions

🪓 Resources

• "Phantom" resource issue has been fixed, you should no longer notice resources that stay in place after destroying them (trees, rocks, etc.)
• Perfect charging your tool hits should now deal 100% more resource damage

📕 Quests

• New Horizon: Fixed an issue where quest wouldn't complete properly for players, leaving them in a state where they could not progress with the other NPC roles (carpenter, etc)
• Maven of the Sea: Checking the letter set now properly gives you quest progress
• Maven of the Sea: Talking to ember properly finishes the quest
• Just a Hobby I: Fertilizer bags should now properly trigger quest task progression (duplicated Fertilizer Bag recipe has also been removed)

🌙 Shrines

• The player's velocity no longer carries over between shrine restarts
• Stamina wheel now shows a cooldown bar when your mini-dash has been used
• Mini-dash is now a buffered input, so using it right before the cooldown ends will perform a mini-dash the moment the cooldown ends

✨ Staff

• Greatly reduced the required Stellar Zeals per spell level. 1/1/1/2/2/3/3/4/5, down from 3/5/7/10/13/16/20/24/30
• Chonkify: Added fading effect to visualize when effect is beginning to end
• Chonkify: Fixing issue where it was possible to grow larger than intended 😦

❓ Other

• Fixing issue where it was possible to open the builder kit UI while talking to Miss Curator, causing a softlock
• Player pin is no longer rotated by 90 degrees when in the Desert Canyon
• No longer possible to use sleeping boxes during cutscenes (such as finding the land sprite, etc); additionally, players who accidentally did this should no longer be softlocked in the quest progression

If you'd like more frequent updates on what's in each patch, I do create smaller patch notes for every build that goes live in our Discord server.

Coming up next is achievements - I'm excited to finally release these soon!

Thank you so much for playing our game, and for all the awesome feedback! 🥰
