The full changelog will be released at launch, but here is a short preview of the new features :
changedThe UI has been revamped to be simple and intuitive. Possible actions are now displayed on the right of the screen. This includes interacting with items, animals, doors, wells and furniture within range. Also, bonus effects on health will show at the top left (mushroom poisoning, fairy dust healing, etc). Bonus effects on happiness, hunger and thirst are still not shown to avoid information overload.
addedWe're working to add more handcrafted areas within our procedurally generated system!
addedNew quest to rescue an injured unicorn lost in the dark woods! Unlike most unicorns, this one may be tamed if you play your cards right. The pet system is now modular, which opens the path to possibly having more tameable animals in the future.
changedOut of 6 biomes on Early Access release, 3 will be fully available in the demo.
