Farewell North News

Hiya folks! It's been a few days since Farewell North released and I'm still getting used to the idea that it's out there. I've been reading the reviews over and over every day (please keep them coming, it's a huge help) and the response has far exceeded my wildest dreams! But, the feedback on the music in particular has been nothing short of phenomenal, and that's really all thanks to the work of our composer John Konsolakis who brought the soundscape to life.

John has just released the soundtrack on Steam so if you'd like to own your very own copy then you can now do so with a 10% launch discount! Purchasing the soundtrack directly supports John's work and gives you lifetime access to over 90 minutes of original music.

Enjoy!

Hey all! I've just released a patch with a few more fixes based on your feedback:

- fixed a bush on Teaghlach that had a rude habit of trapping sheep and not letting them go
- fixed an issue causing the first "My Heart's in the Highlands" cutscene to re-trigger if you canoe back to the cave
- fixed a missing Simplified Chinese character in the Gaelic Subtitle modal

Hiya folks! Just a few fixes and quality of life improvements based on your feedback. In this patch we have:

- The Gaelic Subtitle modal when starting a new game now shows a preview of the subtitles based on your current On/Off selection
- Fixed a Simplified Chinese translation mistake on the Gaelic Subtitle modal
- Fixed a floating power cable at the Uair farmhouse going to nowhere depending on the time state
- Fixed a strange animation when Cailey gets off her bike while off-screen
- Fixed an issue with Cailey petting the air and not moving after a certain cutscene

Please keep the feedback coming, it's been an absolute joy to read all of the reviews!

Hey everyone, we're absolutely thrilled with the response to Farewell North so far, and hope you're enjoying running around the Scottish isles with Chesley and Cailey!

This first patch addresses some minor issues that have been raised, and we'll continue to keep an eye out for any issues you're facing.

Changelist:

• Adds the Gaelic translations for the "My Heart's in the Highlands" lyrics
  
• Adds a missing collider on the lighthouse doors
  
• Fixes a rare soft-lock issue in the final island
  

Thank you again for the wonderful feedback, your reviews have been a real joy to read! If you haven't left a review yet, please consider writing one as it's a tremendous help for us

For the past four years I've spent every single day working on this game; a deeply personal, atmospheric and emotional adventure about a woman and her dog saying farewell to the place they grew up. I'm so proud of what the team and I have created, and I'm absolutely thrilled to say that it's out now!

The early press reviews have been so heartwarming, but it's your opinion that matters most, and I cannot wait to hear what you think. So, without further ado, I hope you'll join Chesley and Cailey on their adventures through the Scottish isles, and restore colour to their world!

I have one more favour to ask of you though: once you've had a chance to play, please take a moment to leave a review on Steam. Believe it or not, reviews are the best thing you can do to increase the chances that I'll get to do this all over again, and continue to make games.

Thank you for all the support these last four years, and enjoy Farewell North!
