Hotfix and Patch 0.7.5.1

Hi friends, A hotfix went out for Windows late last night to address a potential launch bug related to the VLC library and video player. Apologies if you had problems launching the game, it should boot up fine after the patch. This build also came with a handful of additional bug fixes, and one major quality-of-life improvement: control bindings. In theory, you should have a lot more flexibility when it comes to your input. This includes resetting your keyboard keys to something more comfortable, remapping an XBox Controller, and switching between a keyboard and controller profile. Previously, if a controller was plugged in, you could not use they keyboard whatsoever. That restriction has been lifted.

Alpha Build 0.7.5.1

Quests

A Little Something

This is now a time-limited quest Clearing The Way
Added dialogue for Dorottya and Katarina as they are about to dig the tunnel
Added dialogue for Dorottya and Katarina on completion of the tunnel, regardless of whether the quest is complete
Fixed Katarina's clipping issue when choosing the tunnel as a reward
Fixed pathing issues inside the tunnel
Replaced the entrance to the tunnel with a rope, and included climbing animations Dr. Spore
Gusztav is no longer so greedy; he'll only take 10 mushrooms if you tell him he can't have more
Light in the Darkness
Robert actually takes the Bright Flower from you now
Using the last Bright Flower before completing this quest now appropriately updates your journal Spirit Walk
Completing this quest will now anger Bernadett (doesn't everything?)
Piri's dialogue on completion has been updated to make the reward for this quest clearer The Second Son
Fixed a corner case related to the completion cutscene that would appear strange if you left the workshop then immediately went back inside.

Misc

Added keybinding configuration. You can reach it from the Options menu
Added controller and keyboard profiles; you can switch between using an XBox controller and a standard keyboard in the Options menu. This means you can still use the keyboard even if a controller is plugged in.
Added various non-text tutorials
Fixed various passage issues in town
The Church will not close its doors if you have the Ice Cave Waypoint
Cecilia's House will not close if you have the Dark Cave Waypoint

Vidar is Dying

In the middle of a blizzard, a community's remaining citizens are forced to confront their impending deaths. Every night, a villager is killed, and the survivors are forced to alter their course in response. Chart a path through always-changing, challenging environmental puzzles, and explore the stories and grief of these townsfolk before Vidar is lost forever.

A Random Story Every Time

In Vidar, every villager has heavily interdependent relationships with the others. When one person dies, everyone else’s stories change - if the blacksmith loses her apprentice, she’ll give you different quests; if the blacksmith loses her supplier, still different; and if she predeceases both, then those two will respond accordingly, etc. Because the order of deaths is random, the story and quests you receive will be different every time you play.

New Challenges to Overcome

To stop the killings you’ll need to enter a puzzle dungeon. Use your tools and your environment to help navigate to the center of the cave before everyone in town is dead. These puzzles are also randomly chosen from a bank of hundreds, so that when you come back to see a new story unfold, you’ll also face a new challenge.
