## Dev Notes

v0.19
Posted on 25 June, 2015 by Anna

Hey Everyone,

Inspired by community feedback this patch introduces a tiered destruction system, so now only certain types of enemies can destroy certain structures. Sick of cannibals breaking through your base? Defensive walls are now a lot more secure and only destroyable by the larger distorted creatures.

Save slots have been added! so you’re no longer limited to a single save file. We also added some cool new usable items (Compass, torn map!) Balanced caves with a new variation of enemy (skinny pale) Added new art, new underwater visuals, fixed a bunch of multiplayer and single player bugs and much more, all listed below:

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub
