Hey hey! I've been working every single day on this game, fixed alot of bugs with the help of our Community, and was able to add more Content throughout the week. Today's the day you can start collect shells, and ancient artifacts on the beach. Bring them to the Museum, and put them into the grey Box next to Bary. There are shells that only appear at night, sunset etc., and some that are rare! Can you find every Museum piece? Click here to join the Discord!
