No problem, good to get the feedback and see the progress being made. I'll hold off attempting to play until the new version hits a playable release state. It would needlessly cloud my judgement of the game to do otherwise.

Thanks I can see that the new version looks dramatically better than the old and doesn't seem to have the same issues. I'm assuming though that the lack of content refers to the no journal or tutorial or crafting menu. Obviously since I've never played the game before I've no clue what the controls are or how to use things, and I suspect reading the patch notes that since I haven't got a workbench I can't actually craft anything? So it sounds like I just hold tight until you've had more of a chance to port things across to the new version.

Just purchased the game on steam on my PC - I assume it's not a java version but cannot tell. The loading screen says 0.9.6 Alpha bottom left. Running a NVidia 3080 OpenGL 4.6.0 NVIDIA 466.27 drivers.
Game settings allows selection of Display Mode but NO resolution settings, thus I'm not actually sure what size the resolution is scaling to. I'm using an LG 65in 4K OLED TV as my primary monitor so my default resolution is 3840x2160.
The lack of UI scaling is my issue. The journal appears as a tiny thing in the centre of the screen and I'm straining to read it. The crafting screen is totally impossible to read it is as if the UI isn't recognising scaling and is displaying fixed scale regardless of screen resolution. The fact I cannot change screen resolution to find a playable screen size means at present the game is not playable for me.
There is also a strange vanishing point issue where the graphics look as if they are stretched out towards a horizon vanishing point this is evident in all three screenshots. specifically you can see in the trees and the clouds an odd stretching effect.
Hope this helps you disagnose the issue and provide a fix. I'm a developer myself so happy to work with you to get this sorted.
