1. PERISH Update #4 - Test your ability, rejoice in stability!
  2. PERISH has just had its fourth update! This time we've focused on improving the stability of PERISH during multiplayer and long play sessions. Additionally, the Tartaros difficulty has been updated to make it even more challenging for the bravest amongst you!

  4. Save Backups
  5. The saving system has been made more robust, and additionally it now saves 5 sequential backups that can be manually reinstated. This should mean even if you crash during a save you should have at least 1, if not more valid saves to go back to that aren’t far from your current progress.
  6. Saves can be found in %appdata%/Local/PERISH/Saved/SaveGames and any of the “PERISH_Save_BackupX” files can be renamed to “PERISH_Save” to use one of the backups
  7. Make sure to do this while the game is running, or with Steam cloud turned off. Otherwise, Steam cloud will overwrite your save with the one stored on their servers
