Hi friends! A month passed by since our last newsletter, heres whats been going on! [hr][/hr]

FROG CON

We joined the Frog Con, an online convention for frog lovers that mixes educational panels with creative works, in the middle of the month. Mudborne was one of the froggy games and got played during the convention! For the occasion, we shared more about the game on our socials, as well as some redesign work-in-progress sneak peeks!

APICO Checklist Tracker

A fellow beekeeper created a checklist tracker & guide spreadsheet for APICO! Its truly an amazing resource, and includes the Ocean Update (3.0) new content.

Thank you so much DeluxeGremlin for this! [hr][/hr]

APICO Community Spotlight

Fellow beekeeper Hazel shared this screenshot of her base in our community discord! Between the rainbow hive garden and the Mothense concert for the NPCs, its a dream place to bee. If you want to share youre own cute pics you should come join us!

In other APICO news, the lovely Chelsea, that you may know as myPotatoGames on Twitter, wrote a very wholesome review of our beekeeping sim! Its always heartwarming to hear such nice feedback <3 [hr][/hr]

Beemoji Mashup!

Last month, our discord bot beebot started sharing a beemoji mashup everyday, and that gave us an idea: what if you could make your own mashup, and beebot could send it to the server?

You can now submit your mashup by filling this form, and itll get added to the bots daily posts! :D [hr][/hr] Thats it for this months recap! Thanks for sticking with us and keeping these hives buzzing, its been a quiet month but we have some exciting stuff coming next time! Take care! Manon, Ell and Jamie

MUDBORNE... YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN

Mudborne is a laid-back nature sim game about breeding & collecting frogs! Visited in your dreams by a mysterious deity, you begin a journey to help rediscover Her lost children.

Finally reach your life goals and become an actual frog!
TINY LITTLE FROGS YOU CAN CATCH AND CHASE
Find and collect different mushrooms to help buff (or debuff) your frogs
Play god and manipulate your frogs genetics to find new species
One of the frogs has a tiny hat!!! GOTY contender????

Mudborne spawned as a small week-long gamejam, #FletchFest, organised by FletchMakes!
The result is the game you can play for free over on https://tngineers.itch.io/mudborne, with music by Mothense! :D

I've always joked about making "APICO but frog", but it's never been much more than that - with the gamejam theme of "pond" however it seemed like a good opportunity to make it a reality!

With Mudborne I wanted to play more with the idea of direct manipulation & min/max-ing of genetics to find new species (rather than just slapping bees together), as well as some more interesting nature mechanics - while still bringing the same menu management & crafting minigame vibes you all know and love (along with all the learning I've had making APICO!)

I've got lots of ideas for this concept and would love to turn this into a more fleshed out demo and maybe even a full game if people are interested, so if you are maybe give it a lil wishlist??

If you want to follow along with the project you can catch us on Twitter, or hit up the TNgineers Discord, links are in the sidebar.
