The Last Plague: Blight News

Going to be streaming the game and answering any questions on October 2nd!

All changes:

• New default control style where player character faces towards movement direction rather than the mouse cursor. Can be changed back to the old way in the settings
  
• Completely reworked new game experience that starts earlier in the day, reworks a bunch of the starting tasks, and introduces more things before the first night for a more varied gameplay introduction
  
• Slightly more water left after boiling
  
• A few minor bugfixes here and there
  

Small balance update

All changes:

• Balance wolf strength, move their first appearance to be later in the game
  
• Fix bug where creatures were accidentally spawned outside loaded chunks
  
• Fill & Equip item actions now work properly from other inventories like the fire pit
  
• Properly despawn creatures during day/night transition when player is asleep, preventing last-minute rabbit chases that wake you up
  
• Proper energy decrease rate to make sure you are tired enough for the 2nd night
  
• Warning color indicator in bedroll UI when sunrise will be more than an hour after waking up
  

All changes:

• Crafting menu now sorts so that things that can be created are always at the top, followed by things with ingredients missing below
  
• Fix bug where dragging heavily stacked fuel items out of the fire pit and dropping them would end up losing some amount of items
  
• Shift and Control keys to split items when dragging now respected by double click movement as well
  
• Add new alpha feedback survey link
  
• Change energy depletion rate so that you should be tired enough to sleep the full 8 hours when the next night comes
  
• Coyotes now run away more
  
• Hostile creatures spawn further away so they don't all surround you at all times later in the game
  
• Hostile creature spawn rates changed a bit, balancing out difficulty later on
