Sources

megad16 describes the first-level choice and missing boss fruit in v1.0.1. Zakki Sunshower’s separate progress image also displays these effects and explicitly says Precocious unlocks after beating the highest Pressure; that image does not show a game version. Eagle_I_am’s May 27 comment #4 mentions an early red Evolution and Pressure 20 without naming the genetic. The result, progress and cosmetic images are related records, not a complete route.
