We've also updated the Noita beta branch on Steam. On the beta branch, there's a new set of starting potions for all you hydro homies.

In other news, the Noita 1.0 launch has been going great. We've very much enjoyed seeing all the new players discovering old things and seeing the old players discovering new things. Also its been a blast watching twitch streamers playing Noita with twitch integration :)
