FAQ:
What is a Beta branch?- A beta branch is an optional version of the game that players can opt into to test new features, updates, or fixes before they're released to everyone. Developers use beta branches to gather feedback and identify bugs in a controlled environment.
- Your game progress should not be affected by playing on the beta branch. However, since it is a beta branch, it might be behaving differently than the non-beta branch. There could potentially be more bugs that appear, or it might be more stable if some of the previously experienced bugs have been fixed.
- If you have any bugs or crashes that appear when playing on the beta branch, please report them to us so we can have a closer look!
Happy gaming!
