It has been a very interesting first week since Dark Bunny launched into Early Access! I want to THANK everyone, that has bought and played the game. I really hope you enjoy it! Feel free to let me know your thoughts on the discord channel. I would also very much welcome reviews here on Steam! Today I have an interesting update for you; Introducing the Blackberries! This is a new meta-progression system, which gives every run (won or lost) potential to make you better. There are also a few other fixes:
