Release	Official changes	Player-impact check	Guide review focus
Patch 1.0.12 2026-09-04	Steam Cloud support, with an initial upload after playing and exiting on PC. Piranha rebalanced and Tuna slightly nerfed; the announcement publishes no numeric values.	Set up Steam Cloud from the PC that holds the save, then re-test Piranha, Tuna and explosive Final Boss tactics without assuming unpublished numbers.

Patch 1.0.11 2026-09-01	GeForce NOW support and Steam Deck Verified status. Aim, sprint and nametag toggles, plus save checks and backup creation for corrupt saves.	Use the new input options and save protections, but do not treat explosives as safe or plan a purchase around a shop option the patch removed.

Patch 1.0.10 2026-08-27	Water now cleans weapons and tools after cooking. Up to 64 dropped ground items persist between sessions, prioritising weapons, tools, quest items and creatures.	Treat important quest items as inventory work, clean used tools in water when needed and retry the Tuna route if an older Albatross guide describes the fixed spawn problem.

Freshness without copied patch notes

Each page links the original Steam announcement, states what it changes for a player and preserves uncertainty where the developer did not publish numbers, rates or hidden mechanics.

Use the matching guide after a patch

An update page explains official scope; the linked route pages answer the task at hand. A balance note alone is never treated as a new weapon tier, damage number or guaranteed tactic.
