Cloud Meadow News

We're bringing another holiday themed update, this time just in time for the Summer! In addition to the seasonal changes and additions, there's been a lot done to spruce up the farm itself- we wanted to make it feel more alive, so now monsters have more variation in how they interact on the farm!

There's also some new sex content featuring the new Seasonal NPCs!

This update is coming out alongside the Steam Summer Sale, so you can pick up Cloud Meadow at a discounted rate of 25% off! Now's your chance to pick it up, or perhaps buy it for a friend?

If you're interested in adult games, check out our full catalog of TinyHat published games!

Additions

• Monsters will roam around the pastures when they are idle.
  
• Monsters will now have a visual cosmetic animation of them working around the farm.
  
• Added the Summer Holiday Event.

• Adds a new combat encounter
  
• On successful completion rewards a new Fertilizer, which instantly grows and upgrades the quality of the corp it’s applied to.

Changes

• Item Data rebuilt. Prices, descriptions, recipes, and effects have been updated/fixed across all items.

• Item menus like inventory, cooking, and refining have had some improvements made to UX and/or performance as a result of updates from rebuilt item data
  
• Monster and egg descriptions now include information about parents (when parents are known), meaning that you can now search for eggs and monsters from a specific parent in the inventory window
  
• You can now end up with “feral” monsters from eggs. If the domesticity of the child is below the minimum threshold, you will be unable to create a new monster when the egg is ready to hatch (too dangerous). This is prep-work for a future feature that will trigger when this happens.

• Increased the size of the Farming Actions UI
  
• Items used in combat are now targeted like any other ability
  
• Updated the interactables inside the Mill. From left to right: refine items, cooking table, and collect output from queued refining work
