Hotfix 0.7.6.3 AND HYPERRPG!

Hi friends! Today (Jan 9) at 1:00 pm Eastern, join me with Hyper RPG on Twitch as they play the latest build of Vidar! It's at twitch.tv/hyperrpg - hope I'll see you there! Speaking of the latest build, a number of people have rightly noted that the mechanic in Erik's cave isn't really well explained. This patch is intended to address that by changing the UI to make it clearer *and* more responsive. A few other bugs are addressed as well! - Dean

Alpha 0.7.6.3

The tool window UI has changed. The hand has been removed, and instead, the button that you have assigned to "Use Tool" shows up. Change the button in the options menu.
Unplugging a controller will immediately reset the game back to keyboard mode; plugging a controller in will immediately switch to controller mode
Pushing any button on the keyboard will automatically switch you to keyboard mode; pushing any button on a controller will automatically switch you to controller mode
For that reason, the profile switcher has been removed from the options menu
If you leave a room and then come back to the same room immediately from the teleport menu, you will no longer lose the timer UI
Using the lantern when you don't have enough fuel will no longer freeze you in place
Resetting in the Dark Cave will refuel your lantern

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.
