changedHello Community,This update fixes several issues and includes a number of small improvements.

addedHello Community,Due to requests about removing annoying bushes when placing objects or building parts: I wasn’t able to fully implement this feature yet. However, I have cleared and leveled larger areas across the Lost Island map and adjusted them to fit the landscape. You can now build on these spots without having bushes getting in the way.

changedHello Community,You can still raise and lower building parts, such as foundations, whenever needed.

changedHello Community,Another point I picked up from a review concerns hit notifications. Previously, when hitting something, particle effects and a sound were played. However, at longer distances, especially when killing animals, these were hard to see or hear, making it unclear whether a hit was successful. I have now added an additional sound that gives you a clear audio cue when you land a hit. The hit is also more clearly displayed in the HUD. This hit feedback is currently only available for projectile-based weapons and the crossbow, not for melee weapons like the axe.

addedHello Community,In addition, a small dock has been added for exploration. It’s not very large yet, but more will be added in future updates.

Additionally, a bug was fixed that caused companions to fly through the sky when dying. The issue was related to faulty collision handling, which resulted in unintended collisions during death and produced this unwanted effect.

Updates are currently a bit smaller, as I am a solo developer and need to balance development with learning new things, making preparations, handling marketing, and more. I am also preparing crossplay support for my games, which is an important feature. Unfortunately, this process is quite complex and requires extensive testing, which takes up a lot of development time.

If you have any questions about crossplay or anything else, feel free to let me know.

Thank you for your feedback and continued support!
