Since the Story Update we've added, tweaked and improved a ton of stuff around this new mode, including a full ending cinematic, extensive logic to allow for accomplishing mission in any order you wish, and hammering out the issues found by our community.
In addition to all this is the new AI refactoring that brings back many creatures with new animations, physics, and behaviors. See our previous Experimental Build post for more details.
Aside from that, we are pushing up all the goodies the Experimental Build has received up to the Main Branch, and we hope you enjoy!
