🔹The argentinosaurus model, textures, and animations have been replaced with new ones. The argentinosaurus comes with 6 skin texture variants.

🔹The creature selection and creation process and user interface has undergone major changes.

🔹Instead of only being able to have a single creature of each species at any given time you are now able to have multiple of each species at any time.

🔹Upon starting the game for the first time after this update, all existing creature save files will be upgraded to the new format and will automatically be converted into "Permadeath-Mode" creatures.

🔹Permadeath-Mode creatures will behave as creatures did previously, when they die they are permanently gone and unable to respawn in the game.

🔹Non-Permadeath-Mode creatures take longer to grow, but will never be permanently removed from the game. When they die you are returned to the creature selection screen and you can re-enter the game as that same creature if you would like. Non-Permadeath creatures receive less growth points from task rewards.

🔹You are no longer able to start a new creature at an advanced stage of life. Now you must play from a hatchling and advance through the game if you are able. The goal of the game is progression, if you would like to have permanent progression, start a Non-Permadeath-Mode creature.

🔹There is a new server option for server hosts and it allows you to set what Permadeath-Mode you want all of your players to use.

🔹You are now able to delete saved creatures that you no longer want.

🔹Fixed a glitch with the Quetzalcoatlus' sleeping animation.

🔹Updated the Unity Engine to version 2020.3.32f1.

🔹"Creatures move slower at the beginning of their turn and then speed up the closer they get to their desired direction." This now also works for turning while moving forward.

🔹Fixed a glitch where if you joined a multiplayer game you'd enter the "Savage Lands" map instead of the server's actual map.

🔹Dimetrodon has 5x more flesh.

🔹Helicoprion has 10x more flesh.

🔹Creatures stop growing passively if they are starving.

🔹Creatures lose all stacks of the Accelerated Growth buff if they are starving. This is to encourage keeping your creature well-fed.

🔹Creature turning works slightly differently now. Creatures move slower at the beginning of their turn and then speed up the closer they get to their desired direction.

🔹Far off in the distance at unreachable locations, the ocean surface now appears the color of the rest of the ocean.

🔹Underwater caustics are now viewable from much further away.
