<p class="bb_paragraph">Yep! In fact, we’ve been patching the Beta branch regularly with some deep performance optimizations, so if you’re curious to try a buttery-smooth experience, wander into the Beta branch and let us know if you encounter anything off.
<p class="bb_paragraph">Meanwhile, our Switch port is coming along (release date still pending), the expansion pack is in the works, we're tinkering on our localization experiment in Turkish, and there’s more excellent merch coming in the new year.

<p class="bb_paragraph">We’re spinning a LOT of plates, and we appreciate your continued patience while all of these efforts come to fruition.

<div class="bb_h2">Mod of the Year: Hearthpyre </div><p class="bb_paragraph"><a class="bb_link" href="https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1683847053" target="_blank" rel="" >https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1683847053</a>We wanted to take a moment to highlight Hearthpyre, a base-building mod, and one of the best Caves of Qud mods period. It's made by Armithaig, who has since joined the Freehold team and is responsible for the tech implementation of a vast array of features, including: golem and mech interiors, much of what's atop the \[redacted], complex dynamic quests Reclamation, If Then Else, and Landing Pads, most of our recent modding enhancements, and many of the late-game visual effects.
<p class="bb_paragraph">Armithaig got his gamedev start in the early 2000s modding games like Morrowind, Freelancer, and Dungeon Siege. With Hearthpyre he wanted to let folks live in the little nooks and homes that exist across Qud. Go check it out if you haven't already.
