[h2]YEAHHHH YOU ALL DID IT![/h2][h3]Thank you so so so so much for getting us to overwhelmingly positive with 500 reviews 💫[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]It's been a terribly long journey, and we're not done yet! I've put together a Trello board for myself and for you guys to see what we're working on next. You can think of it like a roadmap of sorts, but a little more dynamic![/p][h2]View Roadmap[/h2][p][/p][p]Since the early days of Snacko, we've always listened to feedback and changed our plans if we realized the track we were on wasn't what the community needed. This won't change as we move towards multiplayer, so having a roadmap that can be easily changed makes more sense for the game than a static JPG I will inevitably need to update.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Look how different the game is... It's been a long time, hasn't it? For everyone who has been with us since the beginning, and for those who just recently, joined...[/p][h3]Thank you for your continuous support, love, and laughs 💖[/h3][p][/p][p]As always, if you need us, we're always around on Discord or lurking in the discussions. Happy Snacking? Snackoing? Farming??[/p][p]Anyways, bye[/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[h3]Meowllo everyone![/h3][p]Alongside the many smaller updates we've been putting out to address balance, stability, and other issues, we've also been working on completing achievements and adding in fast travel![/p][p][/p]

• [p]Achievements now come with rewards on completion - when you load up your save file, some of them may be auto-completed based on what you've done already![/p]
• [p]The blueprint books in shrines that used to house crafting recipes have now been moved to achievements. Much better, no?[/p]
• [p]Quests, logs, and achievements with unclaimed rewards will now show a ! beside the journal tab when you open it up[/p]
• [p]There are 101 achievements in total, so we hope you enjoy collecting all of them![/p]
• [p]There's a special Star Trophy when you get all the achievements, so do your best~[/p]
• [p]Contests and events will now give a trophy instead of the Star Trophy; if you've obtained a Star Trophy from our building event from the past, it is now a Builder's Trophy[/p]
• [p]Completing all the Cultural Center rooms will now reward you with a banner![/p]

[p][/p]

• [p]Portals can be unlocked after completing the achievement The Cat That Leapt Through Mines by resetting the mines layout ten times[/p]
• [p]The crafting recipe automatically crafts a set of them. You need to put two down and label them with the same name in order to fast travel between them[/p]
• [p]Once they are linked up, changing the name of one will automatically change the other[/p]
• [p]You place Portals using the Builder's Kit, so there are also no restrictions... Just remember: if you break the game on purpose, you deserve to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Player beware if you choose to get cheeky![/p]
• [p]You can place portals in different maps and indoors, including townhomes. Townhome building areas have now been fixed and should properly display the items you've placed into them[/p]

[p][/p][p][/p]

• [p]Sigh... Fine. You guys win. You can now eat Glue. It'll take away a bit of HP. Please don't eat glue irl.[/p]
• [p][/p]
• [p]For those who haven't booted up the game in a while, you can now view which storage container you're going to open. They will highlight with an outline![/p]
• [p][/p]
• [p]Another feature we added a few small patches back is the ability to search for crafting recipes in the work bench and crafting tab now! Huzzah![/p]
• [p][/p]

[p]Hooray! We're finally at the end.[/p][p]We really hope you enjoy the new achievements, they were tons of fun to think up and create.[/p][p]Don't forget, our Discord is full of friendly community members who will help you with any questions or bully me into making glue edible. And of course, us, the devs, are always lurking as well.[/p][h3]See you next patch note! Meow meow meow 🐾[/h3][h2]Join our Discord[/h2]
