Dev Update: Controller Support + Future Updates
[p]Hey everyone! We hope you’ve had a great start to the new year and managed to get some time off over the holidays, whether that meant catching up with friends and family or getting lost in a few great games. Now that things are ramping back up, we wanted to share a quick update on how development’s going and what we’ve got planned for 2026.[/p][p][/p]
Addressing Your Feedback
[p]Over the holidays, we spotted a few bugs that were impacting gameplay for some players. Right now, our main focus is going through feedback from Steam, Discord, and official bug reports to track down and fix the most pressing issues. We released a patch last week that resolved the black screen and freezing problems when entering caves, and we’re continuing to make improvements across the game based on what you’ve been reporting.
[p]Now for some big news we know a lot of you have been waiting for... Full Controller + Steam Deck support is coming early this year! This has been a huge feature for us, and while our small team has been working on it for a long time, getting it to the level we wanted proved to be a big challenge. To make sure it’s done right, we brought in an external team of controller specialists, and they’ve been doing an incredible job helping us refine and finalize the system. We’re really excited to finally be able to share this with you soon, and we can’t wait for you to get your hands on it.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/37921296/db4151bee26353761de3273ff6c0e9879daea8f1.jpg"][TAG-20][/p]
Future Updates
[p]We’re not stopping at 1.0 - 2026 is shaping up to be another big year for Len’s Island. While we can’t share everything just yet, we’re actively working on the next major content update, alongside the release of full controller support. We’re continuing to pour a lot of love into the game so we can keep improving it and deliver the best experience possible.[/p][p][/p]

Patch 1.1.3
[p]Hey all, it's been a while, I hope you're well!
We have been preparing a fun update for December, and thought it best to put out a patch now to fix some bugs and make some meaningful changes to the camera system. [/p][p][/p][p]I'm still open to making further changes to the camera if needed, but I think we have nailed it now. [/p][p]~ Julian[/p][p][/p]
~ Camera Changes:
[p]Inverted the default camera tilt, as it was the opposite of what most people are used to (you can still invert it back in the game settings)[/p]
[p]Added smooth-scrolling to camera zoom so it's not bound by only 3 zoom levels[/p]
[p]Changed the smoothing settings and sensitivity levels for the camera[/p]
[p]Added new sliders in settings to adjust camera sensitivity and zoom sensitivity[/p]
[p]The camera now adjusts when you tilt to look at the horizon, making it easier to see into the distance while moving around.[/p]
[p]Slightly altered the FOV of the camera [/p]
[p][/p]
~ Bug Fixes and Changes:
[p]Fixed interact objects such as beds, chests, campfires, etc, becoming locked and not clickable[/p]
[p]Fixed an exploit where holding down the attack input after starting the press during the crit window of a tool would result in all subsequent attacks being crits[/p]
[p]Optimised enemy loading speed to improve frames in the dungeons while lots of enemies are spawning[/p]
[p]Fixed moving farm plots in edit mode not working correctly[/p]
[p]Several changes to help prevent cases where character data can become corrupt[/p]
[p]Added distant black fog in the caves [/p]
[p]Fixed the Cane Torch not properly fading away in buildings[/p][p][/p]
[p][/p]
Patch 1.0.13
! Bugs fixed:
[p]Fixed bug that allowed quests to auto-complete on load without giving rewards.[/p]
[p]Fixed an issue that could make the quest UI not populate correctly.[/p]
[p]Fixed lighting issue and optimised lighting performance.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Patch 1.0.12
[p]Hey all, so sorry this happened but a bug slipped thru the last build which caused load issues. These load issues would roll back town levels and crops most notably, and sometimes some other stuff too.
This has been fixed and will no longer happen, but if you loaded the game over the past 12 hours and got some rollbacks, all we can do is manually fix them ourselves. If you lost any progress from this bug, please submit a bug report and share your save files and email https://noteforms.com/forms/lens-island-bug-report-form?notionforms=1. In the report, tell us what you're missing and how you would like it returned. I will then manually add back in any lost town levels, or crop resources, etc, and send back your save file to your email.[/p][p][/p][p]Sorry again, hopefully it's the last time we ever have a bad bug like this. We will do whatever we can to help anyone affected and continue your progress. [/p]
! Bugs fixed:
[p]Fixed bug with the item drops that could cause some parts of the save file to not load correctly. Then, if the game was saved after that point, it would override and wipe town levels, crops, and some other save data. [/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Patch 1.0.11
~ Changes:
[p]Item pickups on the ground now despawn after 1 hour of playtime (this helps avoid performance issues when large amounts of items are scattered on the ground).[/p]
[p]Killing bosses and lighting keystones give XP to everyone on the server.[/p]
[p][/p]
! Bugs fixed:
[p]Fixed boats turning into helicopters when turning upside down, still possible to bug the physics, but it's now a lot harder.[/p]
[p]Fixed a bug that could cause trees to despawn temporarily if resource multiplayer was set to 2x.[/p]
[p]Chat messages, such as 'died', 'connected', and 'disconnected', now translate.[/p]
[p]Fixed boss names and outpost names not translating.[/p]
[p]Fixed an issue causing quests to sometimes not load in the correct state.[/p][p][/p]
