- Frob what your hand touches or points at (within reach)
- Hold the grip on crates, bottles etc. to carry them in your hand; let go to drop, swing and let go to throw
- Throw flash bombs and other items by swinging
- HUD on your body: light gem and health on the left wrist, weapon on the right, inventory at the left waist above a pouch
- The selected inventory item appears in your hand while cycling
- Climb ladders and ropes with the stick (forward up, back down)
- Lean further with the camera shift off (Movement tab: lean reach)
- New hand textures (Hafnia Hands)
- Fixed: sound turning with the hand instead of the head
- Fixed: melee hits not registering reliably
