Slime Rancher v0.3.5 is in development and we hope to be releasing it within a couple of weeks time. It includes a totally revamped Moss Blanket zone featuring a lot of new content to explore, increasing its size to about that of the Indigo Quarry. This update will also finally introduce the elusive hunter slime! Thought to be the wild cousin of the tabby slime, the hunter slime is capable of a natural cloaking ability that allows it to sneak up on its favorite prey, roostros. Aside from potentially losing your prized roostro to this proficient predator, a hunter slime can be a risk to ranchers in that every largo formed from a hunter slime becomes feral! Better have a few chickens handy! (and really, when is having a few chickens handy not a good thing?) But what comes after v0.3.5? We’ll likely have a few more smaller updates and fixes (we’re working on another optimization pass), and then it’s the big v0.4.0. We’ve got big plans for v0.4.0, which will include the new ranch expansion, The Lab, that will introduce a new game feature: SLIME SCIENCE! While we’re not yet ready to share details of Slime Science, it’s being developed as a series of systems to enrich the existing game world and provide a major resource sink for all the goodies you’ve been collecting in Slime Rancher. This is a big, complicated, new feature and will take time, so thanks so much for all your patience and support! And look forward to the new Moss Blanket and hunter slime in the coming weeks!

• You wake at the crack of dawn and get to watering the crops at the ranch. Some slimes are vegetarian, after all. Then it’s time to gather up the plumpest hens from the chicken coop. Some slimes are totally not vegetarian, after all.
  
  
• Next, you’re off to feed slimes their breakfast over at the slime corrals so they don’t get too out of hand during the day. Hungry slimes get jumpy. Jumpy slimes can’t be contained.
  
  
• With your ranch set for the day, it’s time to begin exploring the untamed wilds of the Far, Far Range. Along the way, you’ll encounter slimes you’ve never seen before, discover a new type of veggie to cultivate back at the ranch, and narrowly avoid certain doom in a valley of burly, feral slimes.
  
  
• With the sun setting, it’s time to head back to the ranch, rustle up some dinner for your slimes, and try and figure out just how the heck you’ll keep these new slimes that seem to, well, explode all the time.
  
  
• But you can do this. You had the courage to travel a thousand light years away from home to make a living as a slime rancher. Slimes that go boom? No problem. Slimes that burn with a radioactive aura? Bring it on. Slimes that wiggle their butts? Wait, do slimes even have butts?
