Demo Update: Tutorial added!

We've been hard at work the past few weeks putting together a really nice, comprehensive tutorial for how to play the demo- and it's out now! We got some feedback from players about not understanding the controls at first, so we asked Rizzi to help us out.

Steam post image When you start the game up, Rizzi the Raccoon will welcome you to Cozy Beach and show you how to fish, run around, swim, change your appearance, and all kinds of stuff! For every new thing you learn, you win a cool prize - new apparel! Our 3d artist Bokhum did an amazing job on the assets - you get some sweet sunglasses, an amazing squid hat, a pretty tropical lei and more!

Just boot up the game and Rizzi will be there to say hi and show you the ropes!

The tutorial is the main feature for this update, a few extra things:

-We got waving back in the emote wheel

-We added some beach balls you can kick around

-Adjusted a few other things here and there, bug fixes & QOL fixes

We still need to update some dialog (Nevermind what Razzi says about making the quests to show you the island- that's Rizzi's job now!) and do some other stray cosmetic updates but we wanted to get this tutorial out to everyone as soon as possible.

Steam post image If you find any bugs or have any suggestions, please let us know! Join our discord, post on the Steam Discussion Board or just leave a comment here. We really appreciate player feedback, it's super helpful for us as we go. Thanks to everyone who has submitted feedback and suggestions so far!

We also made a new trailer to show off the cool stuff we've been working on this winter - here's the Youtube vid, and it's up on the Steam page too!

OK that's everything - thanks for reading and we hope you have fun with the new tutorial and the new awesome clothing!
