Happy hunting! - Game credits got a little longer because our team got a little bigger :) - Special event slimes (ie: Party Gordo) are now hidden until discovered and are no longer required in order to complete the Pro Style achievement. - Adjusted fruit and veggie growth to make sure theyre always ripe when entering a certain secret area. Fixes: - Fixed colliders in the lab and docks that were causing drones to do gymnastics while navigating and interacting in those areas. - Fixed a bug where the shop occasionally wouldnt add a slime key to your inventory after you purchased it. - Addressed some input issues for non-steam controllers. - Fixed a visual bug where drones appeared to be shrinking items rather than vacuuming them up. - Fixed an issue where scareslimes sometimes werent scary enough. Scareslimes are back to being 2 spooky 4 slimes. - Fixed a bug where Playset Slime Toys were not properly reducing the agitation of slimes dressed in the corresponding Playset Fashion Pods. - Fixed a bug that caused tarrs to stop chomping if you stood still. The best ways to deal with tarr is to blast them with water or to RUN! - Fixed a bug where the slime key count on the map did not include keys that you had already discovered. - Fixed an issue with the Newbucks UI where it could get stuck on the screen. - Minor localization fixes and improvements.

What is Slime Rancher?
Slime Rancher is the tale of Beatrix LeBeau, a plucky, young rancher who sets out for a life a thousand light years away from Earth on the ‘Far, Far Range’ where she tries her hand at making a living wrangling slimes. With a can-do attitude, plenty of grit, and her trusty vacpack, Beatrix attempts to stake a claim, amass a fortune, and avoid the continual peril that looms from the rolling, jiggling avalanche of slimes around every corner.

Sounds great! Give me more details!
Slime Rancher is a first-person, sandbox experience where players will solve problems and survive through mastery of their vacpack: a vacuum/cannon/backpack that can vacuum up and blast out anything that isn’t nailed to the ground.

Each day will present new challenges to players as they attempt to amass a great fortune in the business of slime ranching. While players are free to approach these challenges however they wish, a typical day might look like this:

• 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?

Let’s get ranching.
