Merchants & Mirrors Update (V0.1.4)
Merchants
The first merchant has been added, the Squatting Merchant. He is the lowest tier merchant planned but is right inside your bunker allowing you to get food, water, and crafting materials quickly. All items now have a sell value and can be sold at any merchant.
Mirrors
A non-raytracing mirror has been added to the bunker that reflects the player. In later updates the mirror will be used for player customization like suit color & design.
Next Major Update (Q4 July)
The next major update will add in the reputation system along with a new faction, location, and merchant. Reputation will carry across saves and allow the player to unlock better items and lower prices for each individual merchant or faction.

Moped & Safebox Update (V0.1.2)
New Vehicle
You no longer have to walk now with the Moped which comes fully repaired and drivable at the start of any save. In the future, you will have to repair it yourself making it a more end-game tool. The Moped has a trunk that can be used to store items while out exploring. The location of the vehicle will always be displayed on your compass.
How the Safebox Works
The Safebox is a large storage container beside your bed that can be used to transfer and save items between saves. This means that rare items which you would like to keep upon death should be stored here. This will help make the game easier the more you play which means you will be able to score higher.
Other Changes:
Added ragdolls to Spirit-Walkers
Ambient Occlusion now in settings
Inventory grid is now more opaque
This update should've come out 5 days ago but due to my Unity Engine corrupting I couldn't bake the lighting so I needed to fix that issue before I could release it.
