Update 1.1 | Stability Fixes, Save Repairs & QoL

Hello everyone,

Update 1.1 is now live. This is a major stability patch focused on the bugs and issues you have reported since launch. First, we want to sincerely apologize for the state in which Sort of Magic launched. It was not the experience we wanted to deliver, and we completely understand the frustration and negative reviews caused by all the bugs. Thank you to everyone who reported issues, shared save files, left detailed feedback, or gave us another chance! Your reports have been incredibly helpful in identifying and fixing the most important problems. WHAT’S FIXED IN UPDATE 1.1 This update includes fixes and improvements across the entire game, with a particular focus on:

• Missing, disappearing, duplicated, and incorrectly spawned books and props
• Save files loading incorrectly or placing players in the wrong room
• Autosaves overwriting existing progress
• Incorrect shelf capacity and broken missing-item respawning
• Books being difficult to distinguish from one another
• Clearer book labels for different volumes
• More distinct colors for rainbow potion racks
• Improved potion placement feedback
• Items dropping, disappearing, or selecting incorrectly during interactions
• Improved reach for items on upper shelves
• Correct keyboard, mouse, controller, and Steam Deck prompts
• Improved controller glyph support and scroll-wheel behavior
• Additional room-generation, object-scattering, and timing-related stability fixes

Our developer is currently handling the game’s technical development alone and has been working continuously through your reports and feedback. This is not an excuse for the launch issues, but we want you to know that development is active and that we are committed to making Sort of Magic as stable and bug-free as it should be. WHAT’S NEXT: UPDATE 1.2 We have already started working on a larger update shaped by your suggestions and feedback. Update 1.2 is planned to include improvements such as:

• A better potion-sorting system
• Better progression
• More item variety
• Clearer colors and stronger visual differentiation between items

We will share more details as development progresses!
