Hello photographers! Starting today, we will be opening up our Beta program to anyone brave enough to dive into new (but buggy) content for Sapphire Safari. The goal with this program is to show constant progress that you all can actively participate in to continue to give as much transparency on our development as possible. There are a few things we will need to address.

If you participate in the Beta program, you will experience bugs, issues, missing features, incomplete assets, and unoptimized content. But also the new stuff as well! New creatures, new systems, all the good fun stuff. This also means that we have a new save file system, so you cannot corrupt your old saves. There is also a very good chance that future patches to the Beta will wipe your Beta saves. So do not get too attached, okay?

The big thing we added is the new Species called the Lustra! She is a curvy Otter found in the water systems on Sapphire Island!
