I have removed the iron railing and replaced with stone, I am also adding more greenery to the town, all in the while redoing the UV mapping so I can draw the textures later.



Progress has been slow, I have to work on the mesh pieces, the LOD and then collision versions of every part of the town, i also found plenty of mistakes I made previously like duplicated vertices and useless faces hidden inside walls, I am lowering the total amount of triangles in the city mesh by at least 25%, so you can say this is also good for optimization.

While I work on the town my brother made himself busy making the end-day progress screen



This will pop up if you are sleeping during midnight and show your daily progress, money, skills, relationships and collections will be displayed there, if you are awake during midnight it will show an alert on the side of the screen, so you can click and see the report anytime you want, so the report will not interrupt gameplay.

We got too many rquests to improve the town and remove the placeholder textures, so we are delaying the exploration update and starting the graphical overhaul update, we will fix gaps in the city meshes, modify a few parts and retexture the whole thing



We added the last critter for a while, the Fattailed Lemon Gecko can be found in the cliffs, look up and you should find some.



We also implemented several small tweaks improving the fishing system and adding more graphical options. As well as many bug fixes.

The city overhaul will take a long time, probably this entire month, but the game textures will become more consistent as i will draw the new textures in the same style as the build pieces.

The fish and the player slowly starts taking more damage if a stage drags on for too long, this resets every fish battle stage
