Devlog #28

The holiday season is coming quickly and we have prepared a small update for you before the big 1.10 update next year. This one focuses on quality-of-life changes and bug fixes so you could have a smooth experience during holidays. And we have an event coming with a new limited-time hat and gun!

Q&A session with devs in discord next week!

Have some questions about the future of the game or existing mechanics? Come ask them from devs in our discord. We will answer all the questions live on 7.12.2022 from 06-08 UTC. If you cannot attend. We will open the text channel a day before the session so you can drop the question beforehand and it will get answered when we start.

Weather effects

Rain and snowing are now added to the game and I personally really love the feeling that the snowing gives to the game. Snow now covers placeables placed in the snow region during snow storms to add an extra level of detail to the world. Here are the current final versions of both effects.

Reindeers

Our second animal type is now in the game! This took a very long because the wolf has not been completed yet. But don't worry we will get the wolf ready for the 1.10 update.
