Hello Explorers, A lot has been going on since the launch of beyond the long Night over a week ago! We wanted to say a big thank you for all who have bought the game and all those providing feedback. As there has been a portion of the player base who has found the game too challenging for their tastes we have been working away on an update that will not only allow for two different difficult settings but also will allow players to customise a variety of options to tailor the difficulty to their play style. You will now be able to customise the following settings: [list] [*] Your Base Damage output [*] Your base health [*] Toggle on/off Invulnerability frames when using dodge [*] Enemy bullet speed [*] Enemy movement speed [*] The Storm spread rate [*] Your starting money [/list] The options can be changed at any point and can be found under the new accessibility menu. You will still be able to unlock achievements even with custom settings set.

[/list] We will also be implementing more accessibility options to players to make the experience more enjoyable in the very near future, so stay tuned for future updates! We hope these changes help you to enjoy the game in a way that suits you, and look forward to hearing your feedback on these changes.
