Early Access v0.4.0.0 is here!

We have already passed 2 months since release, and looking back it feels like 2 years considering all the updates that have been made. And today to mark this milestone, we have a big update bringing new vehicles and major game optimizations.

Changes for this update:

There are 2 new vehicles in the game which are available at the Agri Motors Store, which will make traversing the farm much easier and enjoyable.

There was also a lot of work done at the optimization and stability department, making the game smoother and more stable than ever!

New Vehicle: 4x4 Truck

I am certain everyone is tired of the old and slow pickup truck we've had so far, so to bring a major improvement to that part of the game, now you can purchase a brand new 4x4 truck!

It offers brand new driving mechanics and movement systems, a working speedometer, improved interior, sound effects, tire marks, improved lights and more!

Upon purchase, the old truck will be destroyed, and the new one will take its place.

New Vehicle: Quad Bike

Another addition to the vehicle library is the Quad Bike, perfect vehicle to quickly get from A to B. Quad works only in 1st person, has amazing handling, but max speed is lower than on the truck.

Pause Menu new design

As more and more buttons need quick access, the pause menu became crowded, which is why it has been redesigned with a new button layout, and colour categorization for different actions.

Performance Improvements

General optimization passes were made across the entire game, ensuring no crashes or corrupted textures appear again. The game is running as smooth as it can, stutters when traversing the map are heavily reduced.

That is all for this update, I hope you all like and have fun with the new vehicles, I personally love the new truck! Next updates will focus on QoL improvements, small additions, fixes and polish.

v0.1.4.5.0 is planned to bring more diverse quests, NPCs improvements and a new map area unlocked!

Thank you all for playing and see you with the next update soon! :)
