The first new species have been added in to Equilinox this week! There are now some rather angry camels for the desert and a couple of new objects for the underwater biomes.
New Features

• Camels! This animal lives in the desert biome and will sometimes spit at other nearby animals.
• Coral and shells have been added for the water biomes.
• There's one new task to do with the camels spitting.
• You can go into super slow-mo mode by holding space, which makes it easier to click on fast moving animals (and also looks pretty cool).

Tweaks

• Wolves and Foxes now have customizable colours.
• Lilies and Roses can now also live in the lush biome.
• Lilies have a pacifying effect on bees.
• Slightly tweaked possible mutation colours.
• Autosaves won't happen quite as often.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue with plants sometimes being instantly fully-grown when placed.
• Palm trees now show their colour trait correctly.
• The mouseover test for entity pop-ups was a bit wrong sometimes and has now been fixed.

Let me know if you have any suggestions or have found any other bugs! You can send me an email to thinmatrix@gmail.com or let me know on the Discord server: https://discord.gg/ktsWT8Q Karl

Equilinox is a sandbox nature game in which you can create and nurture your own diverse, dynamic, evolving ecosystem of plants and animals!

Create

You create ecosystems by placing plants and animals into your world. Different plants will make the terrain more fertile allowing wildlife to flourish, while animals will begin to earn you points which can be used to purchase various in-game resources.

Nurture

Every plant and animal has its own life-cycle, behaviors and requirements, so you need to ensure that each species is satisfied with its environment, has enough resources, and that the ecosystems are balanced. Healthy, happy animals will live longer, breed more, and earn you more points.

Evolve

The points you earn can also be used to genetically modify your species, allowing you to manipulate the traits and behaviors of your species for various benefits. You can also evolve your current wildlife to unlock more exotic plants, trees and creatures.

Progress

There are multiple in-game tasks that can be completed to gain rewards such as extra diversity points or new content. Some tasks can be repeated, making it possible to farm certain plants and animals to receive a regular income of diversity points.
