Farmer's Life News

Update 0.8.02

[h3]Changes[/h3]
- Time flows a bit slower in Zalesie and fast travelling is a bit faster.
- You can grab your chickens and put them into crates now.
- Kasimir understood that chickens - even when they are in crates - need freedom and you just can't squeeze them into bags or chests.
- So, to sell chickens you need to place crates containing them inside the designated pen. Just like you do with other farm animals for sale.
- Larger items (like engine or chaffcutter) must be carried around now. They no longer fit inside Kasimir's pockets. Fortunately, you can still use fast travel while carrying such items.
- Kasimir learned how to throw items he's carrying. (Only tree logs are too heavy for such activities.)
- Carts and trailers learned a new trick. Just drop items on them and they will try to take care of the rest.
- There is a new option in game settings that lets you disable autosave feature.
- Parked vehicles will no longer roll indefinitely when they are pushed.
- You can start selling butter at the State Farm now.
- Grass, straw, oat and wheat take less space in bags, chests and inventory.

[h3]Coming soon[/h3]
- Dead animals treated like large items. (No more carrying dead cows in your pockets).
- Tadeusz starts a new business: Paid services for recovering lost objects (also from under water).

Developers' view of the latest update

Dear Farmer's Life fans,

First of all, we would like to apologize to unsatisfied players about the latest update. You certainly want to know why some of the changes are controversial.



At the beginning of our journey, and even after the game's release in early access on Steam, we never expected that such a large number of fantastic players would take interest in our game, create a thriving community, and play, play, play, and play some more. Due to the fact that we are a small studio, on the one hand this is our first experience with such player support, on the other hand, when releasing/designing the game it was difficult to predict that a few years later there may be a situation of stability and performance problems due to, for example, too many animals.



Our intention has never been to make the enjoyment of the game unpleasant for players, but to provide constantly new experiences but also challenges. For the aforementioned reason, an update allowing us to continue adding content had to come. We were so anxious for you to have fun that it comes too late. We understand your bitterness, we treat everything with the utmost seriousness and promise that with this update, others with numerous and interesting mechanics, equipment and events will come soon.



We hope you will understand, and continue to support us, and we will continue to work hard and provide you with constantly new experiences, with the lowest possible percentage of those
negative ones.

Remember, you can always contact us on discord: Discord.

Greetings,
Farmer's Life team

- There is a new machine in Zalesie: Table saw. Just connect an engine to it and each log will turn into nice, even planks in no time.
- There is a new crop in Zalesie: Sugar beet. Yes, you can make sugar out of it in your own kitchen.
- There is a new machine in Zalesie: Motorcycle with a sidecar. You can't buy it anywhere, but Stan at the State Farm will help you find this beauty.
- The weather is now more merciful for Zalesie and Kazimierz. It's sunny more often and once the weather gets worse it lasts much shorter now.
- Kasimir learned how to harvest corn with a scythe and a mower. The same applies to tobacco.
- Kasimir learned his tractor how to tow a treelog, just like horses do. The tractor wanted to be better than some artiodactyl, so it can pull three logs at once.
- Bith Thadeus and Stan from the State Farm buy back machines Kasimir no longer needs.
- A rot and decay creeped into Zalesie. Unprocessed products will no longer be fresh indefinitely. Get rid of them before winter is over, because then they will only be good for compost.
- Kasimir built himself a dugout by the house, so he can save some of his crops from decay.
- Nothing lasts forever. Except Fluffy. From now on, all animals will die of old age. Sell them before the bell tolls for them.
- A mysterious disease has also crept into Zalesie. Fortunately, it only affects animals in herds that are too numerous. Landlord's vision will easily pick out the infected individuals, which need to be eliminated quickly.
- The chests of Zalesie lost their miraculous power. They can no longer store items in quantities that would overfill even Kasimir's barn.
- Casimir's cavernous bag also no longer resembles the bag of a certain underage sorceress.

[h3]Coming soon[/h3]
- Tadeusz starts a new business: Paid services for recovering lost objects (also from under water).
