changedSkillsSkills have been introduced. Previously you would aim to get gold and prestige within the game, resetting all content. This did not fit the game very well as resetting all progress felt like a punishment. Skills are here to replace that punishment and instead provide a linear progression method. There are currently 6 skills planned for the game

These balloons will give you a few resources of you have collected them before. Besides that rain has been introduced. Rain speeds up how fast you catch fish and how fast crops grow

Skills

Skills have been introduced. Previously you would aim to get gold and prestige within the game, resetting all content. This did not fit the game very well as resetting all progress felt like a punishment. Skills are here to replace that punishment and instead provide a linear progression method. There are currently 6 skills planned for the game

  • Farming (Present)

  • Fishing (Present)

  • Husbandry (Present)

  • Cooking (Planned)

  • Woodcutting (Planned)

  • Construction (Planned)

You level these skills up by performing tasks related to them. Workers will also provide experience for you. Skills will have their own post soon once the final plans for all of them have been finished!

Workers

Workers have received an overhaul. The previous walking crops have been replaced with a little cute being that you can customise. Currently only names can be changed but clothing is work in progress!

World Events & Weather

Random events and weather has been added! The only current present world event is a chance of balloons spawning. These balloons will give you a few resources of you have collected them before. Besides that rain has been introduced. Rain speeds up how fast you catch fish and how fast crops grow

New Animals!

Animals have not been showcased before (exception of the rabbit) so we figured you'd like to see all of them

That's it for now! There is a lot more going on in the background but this what we felt like showing for now. More updates are coming soon! All feedback is highly appreciated. The goal is to make a game we all enjoy.

Thank you, KotieDev
