This month we have a big expansion to the Hallowed Haunt, with spooky hauntings of the dungeon with evasive ghostly forms of the dungeon foes within! Fight creatures who hit harder, and have a chance to completely evade your attacks, all to gather up the spirit essences that can be traded for bags of Hallowed Haunt candy! Trade in enough of them, and you'll be rewarded with a spooky item of necromantic booty call! Just use it in your bed room to bring forth a spirit from the beyond looking for a good time!

The Summer Fun Update Part 2

This update brings a few pretty hefty changes. The biggest of these is of course the continuation of the story to the end of Floor 6, and onto Floor 7 of the Savannah, into the salt lakes deep inside the Savannah Dungeon Island. Meet new friends and contest old foes in this ground as you pursue the Poachers to the deepest Savannah.

In addition to this, we've revamped farming entirely, added in the rest of the special buildings such as the Weather Balloon, and updated the calendar UI. There's also multiple quality of light features like adding a light source to the combat scenes during night so you can actually see what is going on, and a bunch of small balancing tweaks and small fixes to hopefully improve the overall experience.

Thank you again for all of your support, and we look forward to finishing off the first story arc of our game shortly, with the confrontation of the Poachers in the Deepest Savannah in an upcoming release.

Hotfix Beta Summer Update Hotfix 5

A nice little update that'll allow you to communicate with your monster under specific conditions! When they are working, hungry, pregnant, resting, or at specific loyalty thresholds, they'll have various things to say to you based on their personality type (which is randomized between 6 variants) and their species. We've also made it easier to discover new recipes through experimentation, and adjusted how the camera works in Cloverton, along with several other fixes and small adjustments.

Additions
  • You can now talk to your monsters!
    • Each monster can have one out of 6 different personalities
    • A new dialogue bubble system introduced to handle this new dialogue
    • Talking counts as a daily interaction for loyalty
    • Responses affected by current status, such as unhappy, or if they haven’t been fed in a few days
Changes
  • Made it easier to discover new recipes with cooking experiments
    • Ingredients are only shown if they’re still used in a unknown recipe
    • Ingredients will now disable as you add ingredients to an experiment. Additional ingredients can only be added if they’re used in an unknown recipe with the other active ingredients. These changes mean you can always discover a new recipe, as long as you have all the required ingredients.
      • Experiments will still fail if you’re missing one or more of the required ingredients. If you can’t add any more ingredients, and the experiment fails, it means you’re missing an ingredient (you’ll need to keep the pantry fully stocked to experiment successfully).
  • Made the barn ladder highlight on mouse over, like other interactables
  • Made camera snapping in Cloverton less jarring while zoomed in
  • Birma now stocks more bread
Fixes
  • Fixed being able to zoom during the intro camera scroll over Cloverton
  • Fixed issue where harvesting a monster returning to their home group would cause them to start sleeping in the middle of their current path (instead of returning to home group)
  • Fixed an issue related to new popup dialogs when a monster is removed from the farm scene (such as for a missed graduation)
  • Fixed monster merchants sometimes removing the wrong monster from their stock when purchased. This was allowing the same monster to be purchased multiple times, by closing and open the store. Doing so would cause ID issues with those monsters on subsequent loads.
  • Fixed Garst’s This is It ability tooltip to describe resurrection mechanic.
  • Fixed issue where Jaero’s Ability descriptions and UI wouldn’t switch to “withered” when his water reached zero
  • Fixed a bug that would allow an experiment ingredient to be added despite player not having enough in inventory for active uses.
  • Fixed an issue where building a new training yard, linked to an existing, could “hide” the previous trainer. Change now allows for one trainer per plot (was one per two).


Hotfix Beta Summer Update Hotfix 4

Fixes
  • Fixed refinement queue not updating correctly, allowing for related items to be “duped”
  • Fixed issue where party would not be cleared when returning from seasonal event combat encounters
  • Fixed bad save data from these monsters still being in party, which could trigger an exception if they were no longer working on the farm
  • Fixed bad test, which would cause errors linking game data if a monster was given the same name as the player
  • Fixed issue where ActionSet target arrow was not scaling correctly at larger resolutions
  • Fixed bug where reassigning a monster carrying goods back from the shed, would fail to clear a related flag, keeping that monster using the carry animation in other states (such as working in the fields)
  • Fixed “consumedatefood: x” showing as dialogue in the dialogue window
  • Fixed Primary stat universal traits (e.g. Green Thumb, Herculean) affecting stat limits. These traits now modify the “base” stat. Base stat (improved by food) is limited to bloodline range, but these modifiers are applied after, using the base stat. This means these traits can increase a stat outside it’s normal limits.
  • Fixed bad logic that was blocking unintended breeding scenes on the farm, when either GuyGuy or GirlGirl scenes were disabled.
