Progress Update 04/13/2024

Progress continues in the endeavor to switch to Godot 4, with a healthy amount of bugs having been squashed since last week. Unfortunately there are still roughly 20 issues deemed high priority, but hopes are that they will be handled sometime between now and next week in time for the release candidate.

For those interested in assisting us in the hunt for bugs, you can play our Tech Test build available for download here.
