Cornucopia News

[p]David here 👋[/p][p]We just got back from running our very first big game booth in Canada at Game Con in Edmonton.

We bought her from a Farmer, and he cried when he dropped her off at my house, and gave $100 back to be kind.

[p]Hi, it’s David :)[/p][p][/p][p]Just a quick note to let you know I’ll be at GCC Canada 2025 next weekend — June 13–15 in Edmonton.[/p][p]This is my first big Canadian event, and also the first time I’ve ever done a 10x20 booth for the game.[/p][p]I’ve been so deep in the zone working on the next update that I honestly forgot how fast this show was coming up.[/p][p]And yes—even with the event right around the corner—I’m still obsessively working on the update. So don’t worry, lol.[/p][p][/p][p]🧩 GCC Canada 2025[/p][p]📍 Edmonton, AB, Canada[/p][p]📅 June 13–15, 2025[/p][p]📍 Booth 314 – Edmonton EXPO Centre[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I’ll have the latest build of Cornucopia® playable on Steam Deck and laptop.[/p][p]Whether you’ve already played the game or just want to see what it’s about, I’d love to meet you. Come try farming, smacking villagers with your tools, brushing Roger the lumberjack or just come chill out with us at the booth.[/p][p][/p][p]🎮 I’m also planning a fun mini-game high score challenge on the big screen.[/p][p]I haven’t locked in the game or prizes yet, but I’m leaning toward Chopper for its fast pace. Or maybe Cave Rescue. Either way, it’ll be casual and fun—no pressure.[/p][p][/p][p]🎁 Also—for the first time ever—I’m bringing some small Subconscious Games collectibles to sell in person (Canada-only right now):[/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel][p]• Pickle the Cat Temporary Tattoos – $1.99 CAD (tax included)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]• Collector’s Pins – Series 1 – $7.99 CAD (tax included, 13 designs total)[/p][p]Only 200 card backs were printed for Series 1, and I’m bringing about 170 with me. Each will be hand-numbered. Once the 200 are gone, that’s it for this series.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I’ll be at the booth all weekend. If you stop by, say hi! And tell me what you love and what you’d love to see next.[/p][p]I’ll probably post some behind-the-scenes stuff on Discord too as the weekend unfolds.[/p][p][/p][p]Lots of love, ❤️[/p][p]Byron (Oops, I mean… David, lol).[/p][p]Yes, I do occasionally play video games on the toilet :P[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]💬 Enjoying Cornucopia?[/p][p]Leave or update your Steam review — it helps more than you know.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]

Hi everyone!
While grinding through 16-hour days to build the Chinese Language Improvement Update, I couldn’t help fixing a few other things along the way—some intentional, some accidental, and a few I forgot to even write down. 😅 I didn’t want to wait for the next update, because these fixes felt too important to hold back!



🐛 Fixed a Major Korean Language Bug
When buying items or viewing required materials (like building upgrades or the spider silk bridge), Korean players couldn't see the required money or amounts. This is now fixed.

🇩🇪 Improved the German Font
It’s now larger and clearer—thanks to our Discord community member PrinzPersia for the suggestion and help! A couple other fonts also received small upgrades.

🇨🇳 More Translated Chinese Textures
I've added and improved more translated UI textures that previously had English—like the arcade, granary, and several others. More are on the way, along with fixes for missing translations in item descriptions and other text.

✨ More Language Improvements Coming
As I go deeper into the Chinese update, I keep finding small things across all languages that I want to improve. This is just the beginning—I'll be tackling those too, step by step.

Lots of love,
David

P.S. If you’re enjoying the game, leaving a review really helps—thank you! 💚
