March Updates - New features!

Greetings Pixelshirians!

It's been a while since our last update. Over the past few months, we have been immersed in various aspects of the game, focusing on enhancing and expanding existing systems, as well as polishing the game.

We would like to update you with just a couple of the features we've been working on!


[h2]Treasure Digging System[/h2]
In the previous month, we introduced a new area, bringing the total to six, including the main town area. Additionally, we implemented a new system called the "Treasure Digging System" and revamped the menu flow to enhance controller friendliness.



[h2]Interior Customisation[/h2]
We've introduced a new feature that enables players to customize their interior spaces by changing floors and walls. Along with more customization items, you can now adorn your walls and floors, adding a whole new dimension to personalization within the game.



[h2]New Tutorial and Progression System
[/h2]
For this month, our main focus is on the progression system and reworking the tutorial at the start of the game.

Additionally, we're actively working on expanding the terraforming system, incorporating new layers and additional mechanics. Our goal is to create a seamless integration between terraforming and other in-game systems, with exciting possibilities such as water farming in ponds. We are also making significant changes to the UI/UX, HUD, and menus.



We have been continuously working on making improvements and adding new features within the game for a better player experience, we can’t wait for you to play it!

An Announcement regarding Pixelshire 💚

Hey everyone,

We have an important announcement about Pixelshire 💚

Dear Pixelshire Community,

We have an important update regarding the release of Pixelshire:

After careful consideration, we've decided not to release Pixelshire in Early Access this year. Instead, the game will launch straight into version 1.0 in 2024!

This decision, made in the best interest of our players and the game's quality, ensures Pixelshire is released in its most polished form. We're actively working on exciting new features to enhance your gaming experience and exceed your expectations.

Your unwavering support means the world to us, and we want you to know that this extra time will be dedicated to making Pixelshire an even more incredible and immersive gaming experience for all players.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Stay tuned for more exciting updates!

Sincerely,

Kappa Bits & Merge Games

Hey everyone!
