This latest update has brand new features in the creature builder, improvements to creatures throughout the game, plus a ton of bug fixes thanks to our Discord helpers. If you have any feedback or issues to share, let us know on Discord!

New Builder Features

• Creatures now emote and look around while in build mode! This gives you a glimpse into their personality and lets you see how theyll move before you exit the builder. (Plus, its just fun!)

• Creatures stamina will not deplete while in build mode, so it wont get hungry while youre editing
• Rigidity settings are now saved in undo/redo states
• When clicking off a creature while Lock Selection Mode is active, your current selection will be deselected (instead of generating new blocks in mid-air)
• Background blurring re-enabled so you can focus on what youre building
• And if you havent tried it out yet, weve also recently added better rotation and more block sizes for all animal types. Building has never been better!

Creature Behavior Improvements

• Creatures will now get happy and excited when pet (in addition to the facial emotes)
• Creatures will now back up and give space when you walk very close to them
• Creatures will no longer look back through themselves when observing the environment
• Friendly creatures will no longer do a death spin when the player walks on their backs or dismounts from a saddle
• Spawning a creature from the collection now assembles it block by block
• The creature AI sleeping priority has been reduced for wild creatures
• General whistle commands are no longer applied to creatures powering mills (so they wont stop working while youre commanding your other creatures)
• However, mill creatures will stop working if the player is attacked or the creature is attacked directly
• Reduced creature animation stutter when colliding with another creature
• You can now assign a creature to an empty mill without having to unassign it first
• Reviving a creature now starts at 100% energy

Quality of Life Improvements

• You can now load prior saved game backups from in the game mode. (Hit [ESC] in game to see the option.) This helps in situations where save data is broken and you want to revert to an old version of your game.
• Life Blocks no longer litter your inventory in Creative mode when removing them from a creature in the builder
• The loot sack spawn distance has been increased so you can see it from further away
• Added a field for contact info to the in-game feedback tool so we can contact you if youre requesting help or more info is needed
• Added party menu key bindings to messages
• Added a new set of images/backgrounds to the loading screen rotation
