• Upgrade and ingredient requirements are now both shown at the same time on production tooltips.

• Businesses with automation on that produce an ingredient and an end product (milk + cheese), will now handle storage of the ingredient better. For instance, a corral will only store excess milk for cheese production if the player either doesnt have any priority items or has cheese as a priority item. So if you have only milk as a priority item, it will no longer hold excess milk to cheese production I think that makes sense.
• Cart loading at end of day works better now with hand carts.

Greetings! Firstly, thank you to everyone who has helped me test this update. Much appreciated as always. Thank you to everyone for the continued support and kind words. NEW:

• Herbal Broth as been added. Cures violent illness, like Herbal Tea. Uses vegetables.
• Land tax - each plot that you own now has a tax. Tax is paid at 1am. If you cannot pay tax you will eventually be visited by Stan The Tax Man who will give you some options for paying off the tax. Tax values are controlled by the ini file. Reeve and Abbot do not pay tax.
• New conversations.
• Screen calibration scene that allows you to tweak colours and brightness.
• Two new achievements.
• Rebuilt the input method in the game. Keys should now be more reliable when the game is paused. Now has native controller support.
• You can now transfer carts between buildings.
• If you build your own campfire you can now use that as a place to butcher animals. Great for those homeless hunters.
• Automation - Added the option to send goods to a specific building.
• Pet dogs can be purchased from the horse breeder. They can be used to guard carts and buildings from thugs and foxes.
• Arrange marriages for your children.
• Thegn position added which is a title given by the King when you build up standing with him. Thegns and family members of Thegns will have the Thegncynn social class. This is now the highest class. Geneat now is capped at 18 properties by default, to get more you need to become a Thegn. Thegns dont pay land tax and are immune to laws. However if you get caught committing crimes then your standing with the King will decrease. If it is decreased too much you will lose the title. If you have more than 18 properties in your existing games, you will not lose them. However you won't be able to buy additional until you get to the rank of Thegn.
• New production events.
• Trade routes can now be setup using the pony and ox carts at Sheds and Trading Posts once you have the Cart Logistics upgrade. This allows you to fully automate the transportation of your goods around the map.

Upgrades will also be applied with an extra few % value so to allow for buying, upgrading, and flipping houses for profit.
• Gender specific randomised names for character creator.
• Buttons to enter various rooms of the building are now shown on minimised UI.

Hey all! Before we get into the great stuff in this update, I want to talk a little about the development of SAELIG and what to expect going forward. A few updates back I floated the idea of leaving Early Access, and I received a lot of support on this. Due to that, I have slowly been shifting gears towards more of a release build. But what does that mean? It means Im focusing less on new stuff, and more on quality of life, and enhancing the existing stuff. So going forward from here you may find updates will come along at a quicker rate, but will also be less feature packed than they previously have been. Does this mean youll never get any new features? Absolutely not. Ill happily work on new features if there is hot demand for it. Even after all the polish is applied and the game is fully released Ill continue to add new stuff and release updates as normal. But for the next while the focus is on polish, optimisation, and quality of life. And now for this update! Bug Fixes

You will also customise your heir when you die. Vikings also use this new character system, but their armour while looking similar to Saxon armour, will be a different colour.

Hey, This update is purely to fix a single bug for the only person I know of to ever encounter it. Basically, a character died and while dying decided to give their businesses to their favourite child, unfortunately, their favourite child died at the same time. Then one of the workers at one of those businesses became quite upset that their new boss was a dead person so ended up hating them. Then because the worker hated their new dead boss so much they quit, but then they realised they were very desperate for a job and so took the only job that was on offer... the job they just quit... and then they kept doing this, over and over again. So yeah, I fixed that.

Greetings! This is one of the biggest updates Ive done in a long time and there's a lot to love here. So, let's dive straight in. THE BIG STUFF

• Here come the Vikings! When starting a new game or loading an existing pre-update save, you can select to turn on raids. With raids on a band of Vikings will turn up sporadically to loot silver, burn buildings, and kill people. Vikings can be defeated by force, but they will also leave once they have looted enough silver.
• New equipment - Swords, one & two handed axes, shields, and a very special unique weapon thats a surprise. All types of weapons look and act differently. For instance a one handed axe will do more damage to a shield than a sword, and a two handed axe is very hard to block.
• Shields can now be damaged during combat and even destroyed. Shields that do survive fights can often be less effective during the next fight as they may have become damaged. When the durability of a shield hits a certain threshold it will be labelled as 'damaged', which gives it a lower max durability. Once a shield hits 0 durability it will be destroyed.
• This brings us to combat itself. Combat is no longer based on insta-killing someone who has a lower skill than you. Rather, all successful hits during combat subtract a certain amount of health based on weapon and outfit, and then when life is 0 the person dies. Whether an attack hits or is blocked and what damage it does is calculated on the fly based on skill level, weapon type, shield, armour, health, current injuries, etc.
• Now that health plays a more important role in the game, were going to need some way to see it. So now we have need icons. At the top left near where buff icons sit, you will see three new icons; health, hunger, and energy. You can see the levels at a glance, or hover over to see the exact level.

• Tweaks to interactions and animations, including some new animations.
• Menu, character creator, and map select tweaks.
• Tweaks to map mode, including some new icons.
• Some major performance tweaks.
• Added even more layers to the portrait cameras, which mean there should be even less character overlaps in portraits.
• All buildings now have an upgrade to improve fireproofing.
• Arson is now done by throwing torches at buildings.
• People will now forage less if that item is already very abundant.
• When a production is unavailable, the tool tip will now give you more information.
• Working hours can now be pushed to an even later time.
• Better auto-stacking of items in inventories.
• A few tweaks to how people decide they want to buy a house. This should increase the demand for housing.
• You can now tune worker wages at any time if there are no workers employed.
• Regions now request more types of goods when you are setting up caravans.
• AI will now loot people they kill.
• Sometimes if the craftsmen working on a sword have enough combined skill, they will produce an even better type of sword.
• Wine. Monks can make wine. Wine heals you, like in real life.
• New achievement.

• Fixed some automation and production bugs.
• Fixed some bugs that would prevent smooth running on some Linux and MacOS computers.
• Fixed a bug where the in-game wiki would not display properly.
• Dead people will no longer keep claim over the property they once owned.
• Fixed some minor UI bugs.
• Fixed a bug that would allow you to adopt another person's child

• Made some of my old code more efficient.

• There is now some degree of auto-eating for the player. When you have needs on, your character is hungry, and you have food in your inventory, your character will automatically grab a bite to eat. Your player will only eat one item.
• Shield usage. Characters will now use shields in combat.
• Foliage rehash. Unfortunately Ive had to remove the foliage system completely and add a new system in (this took ages). The new system works great and looks good, however it isnt quite as responsive. This means empty plots no longer have trees on them. This also means the simple vegetation option has been removed because vegetation will now be less dense around cities. As part of this distant trees will look nicer.
• Melee combat has been redeveloped and is now better all around. This was an important change because it lends well to the inclusion of raids.

Hello! Its been a minute, but Im still here, I promise. Ive been super busy at work recently and with life in general. However Ive just ended up with COVID, which has actually freed up some time for me. Nothing major in this update sorry.

Kissing and lovemaking ties into this annoyance system as well.

Just a tiny little update for the following

• Fixed businesses offloading goods into houses
• Fixed an inventory duplication bug when dealing with outfits and your pack

Greetings! Big sorries to those who had bugs with update 36. It was a massive effort on my end and some things just didn't get picked up in testing. :( Here are some fixes for you.

• Fixed farm animal textures that looked horrible.
• Fixed some floating objects.
• Fixed a bug that would potentially break the Abbot if you married them.
• Renamed some of the 'case' wording to match the new 'peek' name.
• Now when you command a hyrmann to peek, it will be for a single building, not an area of buildings.
• I *think* I have fixed some bugs with cart navigation.
• When selecting the Den and then selecting another building, the production panel would be all messed up. Have fixed.
• Tweaked the responsiveness of double-click when using fast game speeds.
• Hopefully fixed the tutorial issues (can no longer replicate).

Greetings friends! Ever wanted to live in the wilderness and be completely self sufficient? Well now you can.

• Rebuilt options menu.
• Camera rotation can now be done with left click (can be turned off or on in options). This is especially helpful for those playing with trackpads.

• Notification tweaks.
• Single characters will now prioritise talking to other single people.

Hello! I'm still here, don't worry. Recently been locked inside like some kind of animal because my partner had COVID. But I'm extremely strong and powerful so I didn't catch it.

• Fix - Windows 7 loading and saving should work as designed now (single save slot).
• Tweak - Changes to the outfit that some people spawn with.
• Fix - If you're tracking your kids they will no longer untrack themselves when they become adults.

• Tweak - The wage slider can now go higher.

Greetings, I have been throwing up a few small fixes over the course of today, but this one has a couple things you should be aware of.

• The load menu now has a button at the bottom that will open up the save folder, to make it easier to find when sending me save files. Note that this only works on Windows.
• Fixed a bug that would prevent your backpack from loading when you loaded a save game.
• People will only tend to wear cloaked outfits during winter, and strip down to something lighter in the other seasons. Ranger outfits and chainmail outfits also keep people warm, and these are worn all year round.

In some cases when loading a saved game with the old characters models in it, the new replacement characters would not be properly generated from all possibly variations, and children would have adult models. This has been fixed. If you have already loaded a game and encountered this bug and then saved again, only the child models will be fixed on load. All adult models may still potentially be affected by this bug. However these will get replaced as children grow up over time. Sorry! Me and the testing team didn't catch this.

Hello, and happy new year! I hope all is well and you're having a good time. New Stuff

• New characters and outfits. More character variations are still to be added, but there are enough to start with. Clothing is now worn as entire outfits. Basic outfits are dictated by someone's job or status, more expensive outfits are made and purchased. Any purchased outfit is considered warm now as well. When you load a saved game from before this update your character will look different because you will be given a random new one.
• New new game screen.
• Monks are now proper people taken from the general population instead of being strange immortal entities. However churches can only hire men with no spouse or children, and they become celibate when hired.
• Started working on a new camera mode for people who want a simpler camera. RTS Camera can be activated in options and it locks you to a specific top-down angle.
• FPS limit has been added under custom graphics settings.
• A lot of better animations to replace existing ones and new ones added for things that previously didn't have animations. (some old animations look a little odd with the new characters, but these will be slowly replaced too)
• A new fighting system to replace the stabbing action. People with weapons will now fight back and the fight will continue until someone leaves, gets injured, ore killed. People will sometimes watch these fights. No legal action will be taken until the fight is over.

• More information added to some notifications.
• Notification sounds changed to be less annoying.
• Health tweaks to make longer games more balanced.
• People will now be better are storing stuff in their house if they're given something they don't need straight away.
• Player buffs/debuffs/sickness icons are now shown at the top of the screen.
• Tweaks to item and building prices.
• Tweaks to sounds and effects made by woodcutters and miners when they are working.
• Slight tweaks to your owned buildings menu.

• Fixed a bug that would give the player free items at the trading post.
• Fixed some spelling issues.
• Removed dried fish from caravan resources.
• Fixed some issues with loading games.

Usually when I post an event I have something for you to download, It's not often I come here just to have a chat. So let's chat. Hi, my name is Jamie and I'm a System Administrator from small town New Zealand. I've been working on SAELIG since mid 2016, and it's been an absolute journey. I'm not going to pretend I've enjoyed every moment of it, or pretend I've handled every situation perfectly. But bloody hell I love this game and all of you. You've given me the opportunity to make the game I've been dreaming about since I was 13, and you've given me the opportunity to take my time. Yes, SAELIG is a labour of love, but it's also so much more than that. Sometimes it's the reason I get up in the morning... and the reason I've had too many late nights. I would be honoured if you nominate SAELIG for the labour of love award because it isn't just my labour of love; it belongs to all of us. We're a village of people trying to raise our baby the best we can. This post is a mess and obviously I'm not a wordsmith, but I think a lot of you would agree that SAELIG is a plethora of delights. ---- But hey, that's enough blathering from me. Here's some proper news for you. I've taken last month's sales and put it towards new software and outfits. So if all goes well we should have new character models and way more outfits coming soon! Which is very exciting. The current characters have been in the game since the beginning, and I think it is time to say goodbye to them. Also, I ran some tests one very late night and found out that SAELIG runs on iPads. Obviously I'm not focusing on this at the moment, but I very much love the idea of playing SAELIG on a touch device. So that's something else for me to consider for the future. Much love, Atorcoppe.

Hi everybody, Just a few tweaks in this update.

• Tweaks to the health system. These tweaks should decrease sickness rates in longer games.
• The AI will now properly buy bows.
• Fixed an unlimited money exploit.
• Disposable packs have been removed. When chopping firewood at a chopping block or breaking into a building you will no longer be given a pack if you don't already have one.
• Travelling merchants will now work much harder at removing goods from flooded markets.
• Mines should do a better job at generating stones when using simple vegetation.
• Fixed a bug that would disable trees when loading a game with simple vegetation enabled.
• A new 'Hunter' start for each map.

Hello, I've been working 30 hours a day recently but I found some time to make a small update. Hope you enjoy. :)

• Fixed an exploit that allowed you to farm relationship by spamming a button.
• Fixed a bug that prevented wood cutting huts from delivery wood to other businesses.
• Adjusted some automation settings for corrals and fields.
• After hunting an animal your character will now automatically harvest it, even if it's outside of the map.
• Fixed a bug that in some cases would cause caravan goods to be placed back in your businesses when you loaded the game.
• You can now shoot people with a bow even when they're busy. Steve being a jerk and working while you're wanting to kill him? No worries, now you can shoot his face off while he's walking his cows.
• Tweaked merchant camp item ranges, and slightly lowered the daily chance of one arriving.
• Started overhauling the traveling merchant carts. Previously they would trade goods around the map to try and keep the markets all supplied. But now they will focus on removing excess goods when markets get flooded. It's not going to be perfect but I can tweak it from here. This should help in the late stages when markets get a bit full.
• The AI characters can now shoot back! If you try to fire your bow at another character who has a bow and you miss, they're take a shot at you too. So careful, you might die.

Fixed a few freezes and crashes. Also fixed a bug where you could not select the woodcutting hut.

Just a small update to fix the training targets not working. :)

Greetings, Welcome to another update. New Bits

• Bows are now usable.
• Hunting. Deer and boars can now be hunted and then harvested. Just grab yourself a bow and away you go. As your ranged skill gets better you will have a better chance at hitting your target.
• Bows can be used to attack people. Your ranged skill dictates your hit chance. This also means you can shoot people hauling carts and then rob their cart as they lay on the ground dying :)

Well hello, fancy seeing you here. I would like to introduce you to Update 30, it's quite neat and has some goodies to offer. Goodies

• A new larger house called a Homestead. It has more beds than a standard house and has a garden upgrade. The garden upgrade allows you and your family to harvest small amounts of fruits, vegetables, and eggs throughout the year.
• Another new type of house called a Longhouse. It is primarily designed as something to sink money into as it's stupid expensive to build and upgrade. You can build walls around it, plant a garden (see above), and also raise some animals (like the garden upgrade but meat and wool).

• Fixed a bug where the Flour Mill would lose upgrades on load.

Greetings, Just a few small fixes here. Nothing to get excited about.

• Fixed an issue where people would start work incorrectly in very rare situations.
• Fixed a nav issue at one of the fishing docks.
• Fixed blurry fonts.

• When automation is on, horse carts will sell a load at the end of the work day if required.
• Fixed a bug where double clicking an equipped item would duplicate it.
• Various inventory bugs have been fixed, including one that would cause major delays in transferring goods when the game is paused.

Hello! Well this has been a long time coming - Update 28 is here but it has been a lot of work so I've split it into two parts. This is part one. This update meant I had to completely rewrite the system that buildings use to exist within the game, since when I first wrote it years ago the scope of the game was a lot smaller and thus the system was pretty basic. This new system though is brilliant and easily expandable, and best of all it is fully compatible with your saves! While making this update I had some time to reflect on how far SAELIG has come as a game and how far I've come as a developer. I genuinely love this game and I love what I'm doing, and I'm so glad to have you all along on this ride with me. Thank you for everything. I recently saw some videos from years ago when I first released SAELIG and I think it's amazing how far it has come. The first screenshot is from the release version of the game, and the second is from Update 28. That is the same town in both screenshots!

Anyway, thats enough nonsense from me. Below is the change log accompanied by a video to show off the best bits. [previewyoutube=3O8V6izll3I;full][/previewyoutube]

Hey folks, Just another small update.

The price calculation also includes a small amount of variance between each market.

This is an experimental change that should add a new dynamic to the market and prevent exploitation. Please let me know how it goes. There is a button at the top right of the screen that allows you to compare market prices to assist with trading.
• The church interior has been redone and a third room added.
• Adjustments to rental properties, it should now be easier to attract tenants.

You can right-click on the church and send you player to visit the orphans which will allow you to adopt any of them.

• Removed limit to number of people showed in hiring menu.

Hey folks, Updates to SÆLIG have been quite thin for a while now so I wanted to post this article to show you all some of the progress that has been made. Update 16 is well under way and there has been a lot of new stuff added, but we're not finished yet. I'm delighted to be able to show off this new content. Renting Houses This allows you to rent out your unoccupied houses. The rent is paid to you at the end of every day and is based on the value of the house - so the more upgraded a house is, the higher rent will be, but you can also make manual adjustments.
Compare Markets This allows you to see the stock of items at all markets at a quick glance.
New Map A very large map with a lot of cool stuff - still a fair bit to do on this.

Wilderness Buildings Some people will choose to live out in the forest at camps and the like. There will also be abandoned buildings. Unoccupied wilderness buildings can be claimed by the player.
New Buildings A lot of new buildings. Houses are now way more dynamic and are randomly customised from a large pool of possibilities when you start a new game.
New Props A lot of new props of all kinds with plenty of variation. - Basic Beds
- Better Beds
- General village props
Existing Map Updates I have decided to also upgrade the existing maps to incorporate the new buildings and features from the new map. Previously I was going to replace these maps all together, but for now I will upgrade them.

Buy Already Owned Buildings Buy buildings directly from the AI by offering more than the value. Calculated based on relationship stats.
Ducks Most importantly of all, ducks will now swim if they venture into water.
There is also a wide range of general improvements and fixes to look forward to. I'll try to keep you all updated on progress. Hopefully it won't be too much longer. Cheers, Stardog.

Howdy, I prefer to deliver juicy well-rounded updates, but I also try my best to keep on top of any major bugs that show up, so in some instances I feel I need to release a smaller update to address any issues that do crop up. This is one of those cases.

• Fixed a major bug that could render your saved game unplayable in some cases.

Howdy, I hope all is well. I have released another update, listed below are the changes. The good bits

• More time based things are now calculated properly for day length. So you may notice some things take more or less time, depending on your day length.

Hello! I only consider this a half update, so we'll call it #13.5. Also I'm calling them updates now instead of patches. Basically I really wanted to get some bugs fixed but wanted to give you more than a simple bug fix, so I threw in some other stuff too.

• Fixed a bug related to loading a game where you own a Thieves Den and being forced to pay wages even though I removed Thieves Den wages from the game.

• Travellers - Families, Nobles, War Lords, Bards, etc.
• Bribes & Gifts
• Conversation overhaul
• Automation of production
• Treasure and reasons to explore
• Usual bug fixes and improvements

Hey folks, I just wanted to get a few things sorted, so here is a new patch.

• Your thieves will now be paid on commission instead of a wage. So for every amount they pickpocket for you, they take a small cut, and for every cart they waylay they get to keep one item.
• You've always been able to befriend guards to get better treatment when breaking the law, but now this will also work with your thieves. So if one of your thieves is caught by a guard who is your friend, there is a good chance for leniency.
• You can now hide the selection UI of a selected building, character, cart, etc
• Fixed up some issues with the class based building limit
• Previously you could get half way through character creation then exit to the main menu and start the tutorial with that character. This was not by design and could mess up large portions of the tutorial. It is now fixed.

• Travellers - Families, Nobles, War Lords, Bards, etc.
• Bribes & Gifts
• Conversation overhaul
• Automation of production
• Treasure and reasons to explore
• Usual bug fixes and improvements

Hi folks, I've been back at it now after a short break, and this is what I have for you. The main focus is an all new UI which should hopefully be much nicer to use. There are also a few other things added.

• New UI
• Updated tutorial
• You can now name your buildings
• A new alehouse
• Now a few of the buildings have a few different interiors to automatically choose from at the start of the game
• Increased the max building limit
• Food is now made in higher quantities but is cheaper to buy

• Fixed issue with the meat pies not being produced

• Fixed many navmesh holes that were causing people to become stuck

Hello! A new patch for you all. Nothing huge, but hopefully it is a step in the right direction.

• Upgraded to new version of Unity which contains fixes for various crashes
• A new and more effective navigation script with better fail safes - however navigation can still get a little odd on occasion. I'll iron this out with time.
• Child labour. Children as young as 12 can now work for you. Less efficient, but also cost half the wage.
• Changed the pregnancy system. Pregnancy is now applied as an affliction which means the pregnant person cannot work. The pregnancy will last for x number of seconds based on your game length. No more exact times. Due to this change, if you load a saved game from a previous version any pregnant woman will no longer be pregnant.
• You can now tell your thieves to case buildings, which will allow you to see inside the building's inventory for a short amount of time. When a building is in this state it will show a new icon in the overview map.
• Production should now continue from where it left off the previous day
• Increased the length of time that someone will wait for you to arrive if you are walking over to interact with them
• Fixed bug with pig production and foraging related to inventory space.
• Some new 2D art has been added, with more to come
• People should no longer use houses that have burnt down
• Fixed bug with not being able to see your reputation with some people in some cases
• AI buildings should now be smarter at offloading goods
• Birds should now be less noisy
• You can now only change wages in the morning
• Firing someone after 12pm will charge you 50% of their wage
• Fixed a lot of spelling errors
• Honey can no longer be produced in winter
• Changes to the market prices equation and some base prices
• You can now start a new game with 14000 gold
• Family members and friends should now show up above strangers on the hire employee list
• The leather pack that you buy will now have 6 slots (might have to re-equip your current pack to see this)
• Various other small changes and fixes

Hello, Firstly, thanks to everyone for your support, bug reports, and suggestions. It all helps tremendously, and without out you folks SAELIG would be nothing right now. Bugs Quite a few bugs, some quirky, some annoying, some fun. I just want you to know that I read every single bug that is reported and then log it in my system to keep track of them. So just keep on reporting and I'll fix them when I can. Crashes Crashes are bad and some people are getting a lot of them, and then some people are getting none. Fixing these crashes is currently my top priority. One particular eagle-eyed player noticed that their crashes usually only occur when the NPCs start getting stuck between things and inside things. As a direct result of this I am now completely rewriting my navigation script to make them smarter and to include better fail-safes in case they do get stuck. These navigation issues are likely causing other bugs too, as the world and production doesn't really function if people can't move and go about their day. Twitch I have decided to do some SAELIG related streams, but I'm not really sure of the exact content yet. In preparation I have made a twitch account, but I must admit, I've never done anything on twitch before, so let me know what you would like to see. Also, I don't have a mic, so any suggestions? These articles are a thing I will be doing once a week to keep everyone updated on progress, and to reassure people I'm still here, and still dedicated.

Another patch. Bug fixes and new stuff. Changes

• When hiring workers if the panel is empty it will now say that there are no workers available and offer some advice

• When paying wages, the notifications are now group into their individual buildings. So if you have 3 buildings you will get three groups of wages transactions

• Added an option for 30 days per season, as requested.
• Added two types of madicines which people will buy to cure their afflictions. They will also use it if it is stored in their house.

• I improved some access points for some buildings
• Characters should be slightly easier to click
• Have made a few changes to hopefully stop crashes when paused or alt+tabed
• Some additional data is now baked into the game when I build it, instead of being loaded when you load a scene - which means loading should be faster for you

• Fixed issue with it not raining in Ashbury
• The game will no longer resume when paused and you click on a building
• Sometimes breaking in would crash, this might now be fixed

You previous saves will work for the most part. However, if you're looking to get the best out of this, or you have found your current save is glitched (stuck in seasons, etc), then I suggest you start a new game. This patch contains the following + more.

• Some people got stuck in an endless winter - I found a cause for this and fixed it. Hopefully that's the only cause.
• Made some slight adjustments, which should hopefully help with some crashes

• Some changes to prices and the equation that calculates the prices based on demand
• A new marathon day length, as well as additional options for the other start settings
• Fixed an issue with days per year calculation that caused bugs
• The time at which people leave for work is now based on how long the day is, this should mean that they arrive on time to work.

• Changes to how the camera works, I am unsure if it will be better or worse

Just a quick update to fix some initial issues.

• Added in some extra stuff to ensure there is always someone to hire during the tutorial.
• Changes to the resolution selection menu. Should work better now.
• Changed the compression of some textures and audio, this should help with load speed.
• Fixed an issue that was causing never ending loading in some cases. Loading should happen as normal now, but it can take a minute or two.
• Some changes to the collision and other things on the basic house
• I fixed some floating benches

Here we go! So Early Access is now available, but I must stress that you should only buy this if you want to support the project and you're happy to play a game that is still heavily in development. You will encounter bugs, some of which could be very bad and break your game and saves, and you will encounter incomplete mechanics. In some cases it might not even work on your computer. :( If you don't like it or you encounter some major issues, please don't forget about refunds. Refunds are good, and I encourage you to obtain one if you are dissatisfied. Thank you all for your continued support, and I hope you like it. I think I need to go have a sleep, this has been hard.
