What officially changed

The launch of Early Access for Halloween: The Game has been amazing so far and the team is so excited to finally be able to play the game with you all. Today we are rolling out our first hotfix for Halloween: The Game. This patch is primarily aimed towards addressing several crashes that have been occurring as well as a small list of other issues that the team was able to implement with this hotfix.

We are currently working on a bigger patch that addresses many issues and concerns that are being reported from the playerbase. Thank you for all your love and support.
