As of now v2.3.0 has been made available on PC and is being submitted for certification to Apple Arcade and consoles! The changes include:
[list]
[*] New chests that you can use to store items in! Buy them from Mr. Kit's fully-upgraded store and place them on the ground to start using them.
[*] Optimizations for faster autosaving that should help further reduce some of the frame hitches.
[*] New menu option to reduce the frequency of autosaving, for those who want that.
[*] New menu button to manually save and continue playing.
[*] Fix issue where some mementos in Charlotte's book could be missing.
[*] More optimizations for critters to further reduce some frame hitches.
[*] Improved item descriptions to clearly indicate that rarer lamps have a wider reach for their light.
[*] Fix info panel saying cooked food takes 1 hour when it actually takes 5 minutes.
[*] Fix for Ted incorrectly using ascended quest speech when he should not.
[*] Shortened the time that passes between Bruin's quests 5-10.
[*] Converted Seagull Q21 to a hidden object quest instead of making the player wait for an item from Charlotte.

[*] More fixes for getting stuck on a quest where imps expect flyers.
[*] Fix an issue where the Signet Ring item could be given to the wrong quest first.

[*] Fix bug where some saves would fail to load.
[*] Animal essence can now be recycled into lower tiers.
[*] Made the animal minder badges easier to get.
[*] Fix for bug that was causing crafting costs to be way higher than expected when they were paid partially from inventory and partially from other sources.

[*] Add Francesca special gossip that teaches about growing orchards and their benefits.
[*] Fix for Seagull's final story quest being inaccessible for some players
