Bug Reports & Feature Requests
Reports are filed from inside the game rather than on this page, because the game can attach the run itself.
Reporting a bug
From the pause menu, use Report a Bug. Give it a short title (it becomes the issue's title) and, optionally, a note. The game bundles the exact state of your run (the seed, every command that led to the moment something went wrong, and your build version) into a single file, saves a copy on your machine, and sends it here along with the title and note.
Requesting a feature
Same menu, Request a Feature: title it, then describe what you'd want changed or added in the note. It doesn't need to be tied to a specific run; the report still travels with your build and platform info so the request has context.
What happens after you send it
Every report opens as an issue on the game's GitHub repository, which is where all planned and broken things are tracked. Because the report carries your run's exact seed and command history, a reported bug can usually be replayed and watched happening on this end.
Reports aren't public by default (the repository is private), but if you'd like to follow along with development more broadly, the Dev Log is the place to watch.
The report form also takes an optional contact email. It's never required; leave it blank and the report is fully anonymous. If you do include one, it travels with the report, stays in the private issue, and is used only to follow up on what you sent.
What's being worked on
A live look at the issue tracker itself: titles, labels, dates, and a short excerpt for context, never the full report (a report's own note or contact email always stays private). Updated every few minutes.
