Game Update

Hey all, thanks for playing Kinsfolk, leaving reviews and giving feedback! Because of that I managed to address all the problems you reported in the hours and days after launch.\n\nI been posting daily patches since launch day, but wanted to post one proper longer patch format for folks that are interested in what changed.\n

In no particular order they are:\n

Quality of Life Issues

  [/*]

• [spoiler]The nightmare level now has a bit brighter stars to help you navigate when the torch goes out[/spoiler]

  [/*]

• Adjusted the lighting in certain areas like the initial house to make it easier to navigate

  [/*]

• [spoiler]Made the jumping puzzle in the climbing level less frustrating and fixed several issues[/spoiler]

  [list]

• Removed trees that block views from jumps which was annoying

  [/*]

• Made certain jumps easier (especially the ones with frustrating mechanics)

  [/*]

• Made meshes like trees under rocks have no collision so you cannot get stuck there

  [/*]

  [/*]

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the footsteps not registering on snow level

  [/*]

  [list]

Thanks to everyone reporting issues and giving feedback to make the game better.
