How the game changes
- Choose the item categories to shuffle; unselected pickups remain in their normal places.
- Charms, grubs, lifeblood and other configured rewards can arrive from other worlds.
- Shop costs are randomized, and the optional Archipelago Map Mod provides in-game tracking.
- The 0.12.0 client adds entrance-randomizer support; use the matching world options rather than assuming every generator exposes it.
Before you start
- Install through Lumafly and enable its dependencies. BepInEx is not compatible with the documented Hollow Knight mod setup.
- Start a new save in Archipelago mode, not an existing vanilla save.
- The maintainer tracker includes intermittent item-receipt and reconnect-display reports. These reports are not a measured failure rate for the reviewed build.
- Windows, macOS and Linux, including Steam Deck, are explicitly listed by the setup guide. Shared-world co-op is not established by that guide.
