This small update for Lured In introduces some fixes for Steam Deck, as well as more changes to the chef and scientist to fix problems and make them more balanced.

This update also adds in a few new things, such as fish silhouettes in the water, cancelling minigames, and some panels for the ascension/research menus. Lured In now also uses a save backup system, so if a save gets corrupted, it can attempt to load your backup save instead. This should help alleviate problems people have had with saves being corrupted.

Changelog

Additions

• Added in a backup save system. Now whenever the game saves, it creates another duplicate save. Then if your main save is ever corrupted, the game attempts to load the backup. Hopefully this will prevent the rare scenarios when someone quits on the frame of a save, and their data is corrupted

• Added in fish silhouettes that bite and nibble your bobber in the water

• Added the ability to cancel out of a minigame while your inside of it with escape (start on controller)

• Added in some panels inside of the research and ascension menus to show your current amount of currency

• Fixed an issue where the godrays in the reception right window were 1 pixel too high
