Weekly Dev Info #0 – What DroneCoon is about 🦝

Hi everyone! DroneCoon is meant to be a relaxing exploration experience you can start when you just want to unwind – no achievement rush, no forced timers, no grind.

At the same time, there are gentle survival elements: you’ll need water, some food, and you set your own pace. If you forget to drink, things get tricky—but the game stays fair and gives you time and clear hints.

Right now I’m working on the island landscape: a 4×4 km island with beaches, a volcano, cliffs, a small forest biome and a creek (yes, a natural water source 😉). I place many details by hand so that biome transitions feel smooth and natural.

Another core idea: minimal UI. You only see the interface when you call your drone —the rest of the time the world stays clean, without bars or popups. Just look, listen, and settle in.

From now on I’ll try to post weekly mini-updates here—screenshots & short clips included. Thanks for reading and for every wishlist! 💚

Next step: creating a nice Island for you!
