[h3]0.9.9[/h3]

[h3]Updates[/h3]
  • The UI for Lucas' blueprint shop has been updated to show an icon for each item, giving you a preview of the item you'll be learning.
  • Minor visual tweaks to craft card UI.
  • Moved one of Andrew's Diaries to a more relevant and easier to see location in Act 3.
  • Updated item background of key items.
  • Scrolling the mouse wheel will now snap-rotate objects around 45-degrees in the object-placement mode.

[h3]Bugfixes[/h3]
  • Fixed an issue where the Noneye Desert boss could be encountered sooner than intended.
  • Fixed an issue where the parsnip visual would disappear in the farm plot when it was ready to harvest.
  • Fixed an issue where the player could easily pick up multiple duplicates of a story related note.
  • Fixed a progression issue with the "Diary from a Familiar World" quest.

[h3]New Blueprint Recipes[/h3]

This update starts to introduce more craftable items that you can build around the village.

I am hoping that this is just the beginning of the things I'd like to add to expand the sandbox gameplay!

Only accessible after reaching Act 2, purchased from Lucas' blueprint shop.
  • Hardwood Plank
  • Plant Pot A
  • Plant Pot B
  • Bookshelf A
  • Bookshelf B
  • Bar Counter
  • Bar Counter (Corner)
  • Bar Stool
  • Wooden Cup
  • Metal Cup
  • Rug A
  • Rug B
  • Stone Wall

One stand-out piece of furniture from this list are the bookshelves! You can specifically store books and diary entries in these special containers.

Here's just a little example of what you can build with the new craftable items!

[h3]0.9.8[/h3]
[h3]Updates[/h3]

The Following updates can be considered spoilers, read with caution:
  • Roz' diary can now be trashed from your inventory, as long as you have read it.

[h3]Bugfixes[/h3]
  • Fixed an issue where the player would enter into a bugged state after talking to Lucas about city-building when there are no available options to build at that given time.
  • Fixed an issue where certain furniture items were giving resources instead of taking them away when crafting them.
