Ring Ring Ring! It’s officially school time!

          
While most of us are clambering back to the schoolhouse, the kids of Honeywood go to school every season, including summer. We wanted to add something unique to our game that I think few others do, having their parents / guardians walk them to school!

Of course not everyone has parents that can afford the time to walk them having jobs and all, but some lucky few get an escort. Of course, the school masters daughter, Madeline, helps her father out every morning by arriving a bit early and ringing the school bell to let everyone know school is about to begin.

          


School in our game isn’t just all aesthetics. We have kids go to school for a reason. Since eventually you as the player will die of old age, we know that the kid you raise will be important in skill building. Sending them to school allows them to learn all skills slowly, over time.

While apprenticing focuses on increasing a specific skill set, going to school improves all of them, though slower. The skills they learn are: farming, foraging, fishing, crafting, cooking, and social. All very important skills to learn when developing a future character to play.


          

Kids can be found in school taking notes and listening diligently to the instruction given on the blackboard. The schoolhouse is also one of the interiors you can access in the game, at any time. Also, don’t get attached to any other kid necessarily. Sometimes kids will opt out of school in favor of apprenticing or, once old enough, will simply age out of school and find a profession.

I absolutely love how much work we have put into developing a school system in our game. It truly is heartwarming to see little kids wandering their way to school in the morning, chaperoned or not!
