Morels: The Hunt News

Good evening everyone,
We are only one week away from release! Everyone at the studio would like to extend our immense gratitude for all of the hard work during Beta testing. We've come a long way the past month and it wouldn't have been possible without all of you. With that being said, here are today's patch notes;

-Based on your feedback points were too easy to get. We lowered the point value of morels and photographed animals. We also raised some of the prices in the shop and added a camping tent you can save up for.

-Added a Camping Tent to the shop. You can use it to choose to camp and start the next day at your current location or to go to the cabin menu to shop and hunt new locations.

-Updated some of the Animal AI's.

-Added a mouse sensitivity setting under gameplay in settings.

-Prices for items in the shop are now visible at all times.

-Fixed Volumetric Fog sometimes not working after day 1.

-Fixed misplaced rocks and trees in Northern Lakes.

-Fixed misplaced rocks in and fence collisions in Texas Ranch.

-Fixed some other small bugs.

Patch Notes:

You can now collect pheasant back mushrooms that grow on trees.

Your total counts for all edible mushrooms you have collected are now shown in the game menu. You can also view them when you are at the menu to choose shopping or hunting by clicking on the arrow to the right of the screen. This will take you to your cabin wall screen.

Fixed Spanish language not working correctly.

Fixed some misplaced trees and rocks in the Rocky Mountain map.

Fixed the issue of no points, "where you are" icon all over the region map problem.

We hope to hear some feedback on the fixes and updates and that you're all enjoying the Beta. We appreciate all of you so very much!

Thanks so much to all our beta testers for your continued efforts. We are listening and working hard regarding all of your suggestions and feedback. We've noticed that due to the nature of how Community Hubs list current news/posts that some of you were unfortunately posting errors that we had fixed in a recent update. Please rest assured that we will continue to listen and work hard. We want to make sure the update list is at the top of our news page and so have moved to bug submission forum to a "semi-private" format for just our testers to use. We will make sure to keep everyone up to speed on all our changes, updates, and bug fixes.

Thanks again everyone, and good luck out there!

You spoke and we listened. Pick up animations now remain first person by default.

We would love to get everyone's feedback on the new "pick up" first person animations!
