- Maps
- Server
Here is the first big update after the Early Access release!
First, a huge thank you to all of you for playing the game and giving me so much feedback! It was awesome!
There is no major content addition in this update, it's mostly bugfixes and quality of life features.
Save Migration
Normally, you will still be able to enter your old worlds. When you will enter the worlds for the first time in the new version, you will see a special screen that will show the progress of the migration process.
If you face any issue, please send me the save files of your world and I will fix it as soon as possible.
There is no major content addition in this version so you won't gain much by creating a new world. This won't be the case with the next updates. To mitigate this, you will be able to play with your characters in new worlds.
Quest Board
In new worlds, in the the market places, there will be a quest board that will list all the quests given by the villagers. The UI is quite simple for now but it gets the job done. If you have any suggestion feel free!
Quest Journal
I started to rework the quest journal. Now when you ask a villager about a quest, all the info will be recorded in your quest journal. It won't be necessary to get back to the characters to ask them again.
I also plan to better display the goals to achieve to complete the quests. But there are some subtleties that prevent me from doing that easily so I will do that later on.
Beds
The beds are no longer useless! They can now be used to skip the night, to set your spawn point and to restore your health if you sleep during the night.
For now, it works with any bed. In the future, it will only work in beds that you own.
Character Window
The "Character" tab of the Character window has been reworked to show all your stats.
Other Changes
Bugfix: no longer possible to consume an item without purchasing it

What's Next?
I had too much feedback after the release and didn't have the time to work on everything. Here are some things I plan to work on soon:
Difficulty modes
New Ingredient and Quest items tab in the Inventory window
Display what "Interact Nearest" would do
A safe mode to avoid accidently attacking the villagers
Allow to harvest a field of crops by keeping the button pressed
Different sizes for the UI with bigger texts
Allowing to remove/move stumps and bushes
Custom map markers
Salvaging to get elemental motes from enchanted items
Few bugs that still need to be fixed
Moreover, the next update will bring new content. I will work on dungeons as according to the poll made on the Discord server, it is the update you are the more interested in. So expect new and better dungeons, new quests, new and improved monsters, and improved combats!
This will take some time to implement, probably about three months. So don't worry if you don't see any major update before end of September/beginning of October. I'm working hard on it! ;)
If you face any issue or have any feedback, feel free to come on the Steam forum, the Discord server or send me an email.
Have a good day!
