[h1]v0.9.58 Patch Notes[/h1] Hello to all of our long-time Peglin players and those just joining us from this Steam Summer Sale! We’re here with a pretty big update, one that takes us very close to what we envisioned our 1.0 would look like. We’ve got our final “core game” boss and the first version of the Encirclepedia, where you can learn much more about the enemies you battle and the world of Radia! We’re not quite at 1.0 yet: we’ve still got a bunch of minibosses, regular encounters, scenarios, orbs + relics, and the remaining Cruciball levels to add (not to mention a loooot of balance) but the game is getting there! We will also still be adding an optional, shorter Act 4 that will truly test even the strongest builds, though we’re still unsure whether this will be released in 1.0 or as a post-1.0 update. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the new features and the new lore - we haven’t been able to keep up with the Steam Community Forums as much as we’d like but we are better equipped to handle feedback in our [url=https://discord.gg/haGwR3TMzh]Discord [/url]so please come join us over there! [h2]New Content/Features[/h2] [list] [*] The [b]Encirclepedia[/b] is here! In addition to displaying your achievements it now allows you to view statistics and results from your recent runs, and to complete your own Bestiary to learn more about the creatures that inhabit Radia.

Peglin continues to be a very fun game for us to work on and we hope this update provides a breath of fresh air for those that have been with us since the very beginning. This lore of the world and its inhabitants has been bouncing around our heads for a long, long time so we’re very excited to get that into the game. For our friends in the Northern Hemisphere we hope you have an amazing summer, and for those in the South it’s an excellent season to play games :D Keep on bouncing, The Red Nexus Games Team
