First Demo Update - Database Stability & Performance — Hope: A Sky Full of Ghosts Steam update #1231091

Hey everyone!I'm Wil, one of the devs behind Hope: A Sky Full of Ghosts. First off, thank you to everyone who downloaded and played the demo so far! Over 600 of you already added it to your libraries and we’re overwhelmed with gratitude. 💛This first update addresses some database stability issues that were causing the game to crash, especially during longer play sessions. After digging deep into the logs (shoutout to Ditiem for sending us the crash report!), we discovered the issue was the way our game was managing database connections under the hood. We refactored our database layer with better resource management, improved error handling, and better transaction safety. It’s a behind-the-scenes fix, so it should be seamless for you all but we wanted to ship this first patch quickly to make the experience smoother for everyone and lay a more robust foundation for what is to come.Download...
