First of all: We wish you all a Merry Christmas!! :)
Finally the long awaited biomes arrived, just in time for Christmas! You will find a bunch of new landscapes in Rising World now, among others deserts, savannas, snowy areas and more. Of course this also includes a bunch of new animals (for example penguins, giraffes, elephants or tigers) as well as new plants (cactus, acacia, poplar and more).
More biomes will follow in the future, together with the water update.
You will also find new sound effects (especially new ambience sounds for the different biomes) and 4 new music tracks in this update.
As usual we also fixed several bugs or did other improvements, you find the full changelog attached.
Have fun and a Merry Christmas :)
