Before you start
- These are Eastshade Studios’ October 7 Steam retail 1.03 notes, not demo patch instructions or proof of updates on another platform.
- Kingy reviewed the complete developer notice; these fixes and controls have not been reproduced or retested in gameplay.
Pet missing after moving its habitat
The listed bug occurs when you move the habitat after giving the toadstool but before the pet arrives. Eastshade says that if you already encountered this bug, your pet will arrive the next day after the fix. This is a developer statement about that specific sequence, not a tested fix for every missing pet.

A watering can lost behind the well
Version 1.03 makes Kavita sell watering cans for players who accidentally threw theirs behind the well. The notice says the can did not go into the well. It does not supply a price, stock schedule or route for retrieving the original can.

Some songs need only the short version
The updated UI clarifies songs that have no practiceable version and require only their short song. Eastshade names Alchemical Resonance as an example. Do not treat a missing practice version of those songs as a requirement to earn more stars.

Scythe, key bindings and crafting changes
You can scythe by hovering the item over grass; Eastshade recommends equipping it and pressing the spacebar. The cycle-hotbar prompt now respects certain key assignments, and special characters such as @ can no longer be bound by holding Shift. The notice does not list all affected bindings.
Feathers no longer make mushroom dough. Several missing translations are fixed, but the notice does not name the affected languages or establish complete localization.

If your symptom remains
- Confirm the installed retail version and whether your symptom matches the exact sequence above.
- Keep your save and record the platform, quest state and action before the issue. This is preparation for a report, not a tested recovery method.
- Check the developer’s current notices before assuming an unlisted issue has been fixed.
