Bug Catching - UNLOCKED
In Bug Catching, you will be able to catch colorful bugs around the island and document them. There are more than 30 kinds of bugs in Coral Island, from Firefly, Leaf Beetle to Blue Morpho butterfly. Pop your net in your backpack and get ready to catch some bugs!
Expanded Museum - UNLOCKED
Now, we can display our bugs and fish! It will have 2 different wings; 1 section will house bug catches and the other, exclusively, for the aquarium. In Coral Island, we have more than 60 fish to catch.
NPC Seasonal Outfits - UNLOCKED
Lily shown in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.
Rafael shown in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.
In this update, you will see all islanders change outfits every season, totaling more than 170 outfit designs. We assign a color theme for every islander, play around with the design and color combination around it. This approach allows each NPC to be identifiable in-game throughout the year. At the same time, we are also making sure that each outfit design is still true to their character. This change in the outfit will bring the NPC and the overall game more alive! We can’t wait to share them with you.
Console and Switch port - UNLOCKED
- Q: When?
A: It depends on the platform holders, as they all have different policies. But our plan is to have Coral Island ported around 6 months after the early access release. - Q: Can I get a console/ Switch key instead of a Steam key?
A: Yes, absolutely! You will be able to choose between a console/Switch or Steam key.
Merfolk Underwater Village - UNLOCKED
This is your ticket to explore the underwater village. There are many merfolk villages around the world and this pass will allow you to traverse the one located by the coast of Coral Island. Decipher their language and develop relationships with them!
Kids Grow Up - UNLOCKED
Left to right. Current Zoe, Goat, Teenage Zoe
This feature will include additional stories and relationship development. There will be new schedules, dialogues, and many more! For the Player's children (you can have up to 2), there will be a variety of children's designs. The children will have their own personality and interest; you can influence this as they grow up, or let them discover it on their own. Worth noting that the children's characters/traits are not exactly tied to the spouse you marry.
Mod Support - UNLOCKED
In order for us to create modding tools that will best serve the community, we will start by first figuring out what parts of the game people want to mod the most. From there, a full-time developer will be assigned to continually expand moddable parts of the game. We’re extremely excited to see what the modding community will create for Coral Island!
What's next?
Multiplayer is next!!! Play with friends, spouse, whomever! We'll hire two additional full-time devs to implement co-op and up to 4 players online farm in Coral Island.

Stairway scavengers.
Kira. As a retired huntress with an adult son, everything in Kira’s life, right now, is basically self-sustainable. She spends her day keeping watch of the forest from the comfort of her cabin. Kira also enjoys doing yoga and playing the flute. Though retired, she still wears her combat boots, just in case...
Jack. He, his wife, Kira, and their son, Kenny live in a humble cabin in the forest. Jack works as the island’s rancher. Aside from taking care of animals, Jack spends his day managing the shop’s supplies, making sure that they have enough to sell. On some days that they don't, the ranch is closed early. His hobbies include watching cooking shows and “experimenting” in the kitchen.
Zarah. An eligible bachelorette who is an adventurer at heart. Zarah lives on a boat. She enjoys going around the island and finding treasures; be it gems, old artifacts, or a buried history. Zarah was born and raised on the other side of Coral Island. When her boat is not docked at its usual place, she is presumed to visit her family. But what really is going on in her life, nobody really knows. She can be a bit mysterious at times. Allergic to cats.
