After an indeterminate amount of time blowing smoke about its development, the newest area and chapter of The Frydarian Tale is now complete: the Tri-Peak Mountains.

After activating the Golems' gondola, the three friends Joseph Fygoon, Alois Ratatosky, and Balthazar Lux make their way to the Tri-Peak Mountains, beginning their journey at the foot of the mountains in IceThorn Wastes. As they enter the wastes, the trio find themselves caught in the middle of a blizzard; they must find their way out of IceThorn Wastes or else freeze to death. Once Fygoon and company leave IceThorn Wastes, they can then take the gondola to the summit of the Tri-Peak Mountains and enter the Golems' Crystal Palace to claim the Crystal Golem for themselves. The journey there will be one of great peril, considering what Viceroy Margus had ordered his Golems to do, but Fygoon and his friends will brave any challenge the Golem viceroy and his minions might throw at them.

New things added with the Tri-Peak Mountains:

• Fygoon must navigate the IceThorn Wastes in a mighty blizzard, taking care not to walk in circles as they journey through the various IceThorn gateways; it is rumored that the gateways that resonate audibly are the ones that lead directly to the gondola
• The gondola is now complete and can transport Fygoon and his friends to one of the summits of the Tri-Peak Mountains
• The Crystal Palace, home of the Crystal Golem is now complete
• Some preliminary cutscenes have been added, mainly concerning Viceroy Margus
• A strange contraption known as a Jet Sled has been added: a gift from the Bulldogs to the Golems, this self-propelled vehicle is just the right size for a trio of trespassers to take control of and escape from the Golems
• Various musical cues have been added just to this single area (including one for displaying one had reached this new area in the main menu)

In addition, more general fixes have been added:

• A bug where the checkpoints do not reset as a new area is accessed has been squashed (Now you'll actually have to play through DarkWood Forest to reach Vicereine Iris)
• A bug where enemies that have randomly disappeared causing a soft lock has been fixed
• More lights have been added to the Hundwerks of the Iron Ghetto so Bulldogs won't have to waste what little money they have on lanterns
• Animations have been slightly modified
• The manual has been modified to show the new enemies and items found in the Tri-Peak Mountains

Things left to do:

• Add in the Battle of Stargazer Hill and the Final Confrontation
• Take some time to actually sit down and make cutscenes
• More general bug fixes and polish
• Release the game
