Price increase, merchant patch update, and plushies!

Hayo everyone!

Hope that y'all are having a cozy time in the garden and that the catches have been plenty! We are still working hard on implementing new and fun stuff for the upcoming Merchant and Trading patch, such as garden decor, curtain and pillow patterns, posters, plushies, and lots of other furniture to trade for your home.



We are going to release these changes early onto the experimental branch, so if you want to give these systems a try before they go public to the world make sure to join that branch in the games properties through steam. We’ve also been negotiating with our little merchant fellow to ensure that the prices for all the new items will be reasonable, though they have been driving a really hard bargain.



While we are discussing prices, some of you might remember that we mentioned a price increase for Garden of the Sea in an earlier news post. Our approach to Early Access has been to raise the price with every major update to the game. With the Fishing and painting patch successfully out now, and the Merchant and Trading patch on the way soon, we thought this would be a good time to make our (first ever!) price increase. Future updates will include deeper animal personalities and interaction system, new biome islands, wearables, day/night cycle, and more! Our new price will go live soon:

[h2]On Monday the 10th of August we shall increase the price to $11.99 USD (€9.99 EUR). [/h2]

If you have already purchased the game, or purchased it before the price increase, you will of course get all the future updates for free as a thank-you for investing and believing in us so early on! We would not have been able to create this gem of a game without your support, and we are so glad to have you on this journey with us in VR game development!

If you have any more questions regarding this news, or any of the content updates coming your way, please comment here on this post or get in touch with us on our discord, and we’ll make sure to answer them as best as we can!
