How do patch notes change existing guides?
- A control guide written before v.0.5.0.13 may show the wrong World Map return input.
- A black-screen workaround written before v.0.5.0.12 may address a cause the official patch already fixed.
- A Dean video recorded before v.0.5.0.11 may show obsolete first-phase timings.
- A bus-cost or early-upgrade table from launch day may be wrong after v.0.5.0.12.
- An absolute combat tier list may ignore v.0.5.0.10 changes to enemy damage, Ground Slam and finishers.
- The Great Axe and Merchant Fluffy shipped in v.0.5.1.00; use the Weapons and Campaign Bus guides for their current roles and limits.
Each page on this site carries a version scope. A patch does not automatically invalidate the entire page, but it triggers review of the affected facts and steps. Official patch prose is retained verbatim only in the source; public summaries are concise paraphrases linked to the announcement.
What is planned on the Early Access roadmap?
The August 6 roadmap announced intentions including stronger Support Fluffies, an Exchange Room, Merchant Fluffy, base-building visual improvements, and later new enemies and weapons. These are planned features, not current facts. The roadmap post also said more than 10,000 players joined on launch day, which is a developer statement about participation, not a live concurrent-player count.
Where should you verify a patch?

- Read the specific documented change; do not merge nearby hotfixes.
- Use SteamDB only to discover build or patch timing when needed.
- Return to the affected guide and check its version label before applying old advice.
