Summary (AI)

Patch 1.0.5 for Montabi introduces significant changes to the starting Montabi selection, now allowing players to choose from all unlocked Montabi with an added option for random starters. Several quality-of-life improvements include new controller settings, enhanced tutorial support, and better visual feedback for abilities such as Root, Slime, and Velcro. Numerous bugs have been fixed, addressing issues like achievement triggers, cinematic playback, skill effects, and UI glitches.
