  Changes: Made some of the textures slightly lighter in the fifth library area to make it easier to navigate Fixed a bug where after a Backpack boost, the HUD wasn’t showing any increase in book capacity until after picking up a book (NOTE: Demo will not be updated to 1.0.4 since neither of these changes affect the demo)

• The Deep Library is now released! - 30 March 2026

  The Deep Library has completed its Early Access phase and has now been fully released! The library's cap has now been removed, and the full story is accessible through the Bibliotheca Infiniti volumes in the first 500 chambers. Thanks for everyone that provided feedback during its development; I appreciate you all!

• 1.0.0 Update Patch Notes - 30 March 2026

  Changes: Removed chamber limit Added new achievements Set global FPS limit to 120 (was previously unlimited, which caused it to use more processing than required for the game) Fixed bug with Sentinel that allowed it to move sometimes while observed through a narrow space (can still happen but is much rarer now) Added new entity, ???, which enters the library after collecting a total of 550 books

• v0.7.9 Update Patch Notes - 9 February 2026

  Changes Added a random chance for debris to appear in a chamber Added a toggle under display options to disable debris Slightly modified appearance of both Defender and Curator Candles now have a minimum distance they can spawn from each other; this should help improve framerate when around them

  Changes: Fixed controller being unable to access chamber block at top of Collection screen Fixed Leaderboard loading message not being centered Fixed viewing shop causing some boosts to trigger on run start even when not purchased, and with some purchased boosts not triggering at all Fixed bookshelves on non-target chambers still being searchable during challenge runs Implemented possible improvement for framerate drop around candles on some systems (will require further testing)

• 0.7.7 Update Patch Notes - 16 December 2025

  Important Note: With development underway for VR support, launch parameters now automatically include a command line argument that forces the game to run in desktop mode; this may not be present when trying to run the game manually through the executable, so it is not recommended to do so since it will try to start up SteamVR even though it isn’t actually using it yet Changes: Slightly changed how the time limit of Challenge Runs are calculated Decreased alert range of Defender Slightly decreased range at which Sentinel can lose you Fixed bug where challenges may re-generate between successful normal runs Fixed bug with fountains that was making them always have running water instead of having only a random chance of it Fixed typos in a few of the Bibliotheca Infiniti entries

• v0.7.6 Update - 23 November 2025

  Changes: Renamed Challenge Points to Library Tokens You can now purchase Boosts from the Shop, which will be used to help you out for a single run (Atrium customization will be added to the Shop at a later time) Shop interactables will now only have its particle effect active while a Boost is readied The target Chamber on Challenge Runs will now always contain the Entity for that run The Guardian now reacts faster after 350 books are collected, and moves faster after 650 books are collected Changed maximum Chamber calculation to be twice the number of Bibliotheca Infiniti volumes you have plus 50 (was previously plus 48) Slight modification to some tutorial messages

• v0.7.5 Update - 18 November 2025

  Changes: Fixed bug preventing Challenge Points from being saved Fixed bug preventing the Backpack upgrades affecting an empty backpack from applying properly during Challenge Runs Added chance for cobwebs in the 201-300 Chamber area

• v0.7.4 Update - 16 November 2025

  Changes: Added Challenge Runs, available after fully completing 25 Chambers; earn Challenge Points to spend in the Shop (the interactables for the Shop have also been added next to the library entrance door, but the Shop itself will be added in a later update) Enter Library screen now defaults to the earliest block that still has incomplete chambers Changed the unlock messages for the Attendants to make them a bit more clear Decreased the effect of the Entity track upgrade, "Reduced chance of Entities in completed chambers” Moved the current Chamber number from the Pause screen to the bottom of the UI Fixed bug preventing player from switching between using keyboard/controller while on a menu

• Roadmap Update (11/13/2025) - 13 November 2025

  It's been about a month since "The Deep Library" entered Early Access, and there have been many updates since then, so I thought it'd be good to revisit the roadmap and show the current progress: Several important strides have been made, including: Five entities added -- Since launch, the Sentinel, Warden, Keeper, Defender and Curator have all been added into the game (I ended up swapping the release order of the Defender and Curator). Only the Custodian remains! Increased limit, chamber visuals, and furniture -- At launch, only the first 100 chambers were available. That limit has been increased to 300, and alongside it, extra chamber visuals and furniture to go along with them. There are still a few more sets to go, but once they are done it will also be ready for the limit to be completely removed for the full release. Control customization -- No longer forced to use WASD and Shift!…

• v0.7.3 Update - 12 November 2025

  Changes: It is now possible for the Sentinel to lose track of you if you are too far from it; this should make it considerably less oppressive
