[p]Hello everyone!
This is the FromDawn Games team coming at you with Volume 11 of the Aeruta developer’s log!
One blazing hot afternoon in August, while our studio was as busy as ever, suddenly—an emergency alarm rang out from our phones.
Moments later, the ground shook violently, breaking the peaceful routine of our day...
Thankfully, nothing major happened, but it definitely added an unexpected thrill to our summer! 😅
(In fact, while writing this diary, we’ve already felt two more earthquakes!)
So between the scorching sun, the temptations of afternoon tea, the refreshing chill of cooling sprays, and surprise tremors, this summer has been full of unexpected twists.
And in the middle of all that, we’ve been working hard on the game—here’s the latest update![/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h3]
Enter the Underground Arena – Only the Strongest Survive! 🥊[/h3][p]Cracked stone walls, heavy suffocating air, and the roar of the crowd echoing across the ruins—
In the heart of this chaos, the Underground Arena finally opens its gates!
Here, Chaya will face none other than the monster who reigns as the absolute champion of this deadly coliseum.
With fists like steel, a storm of relentless combos, and the power to crush anyone who dares to challenge him...
Yes—it’s him.
Steel Fist Zoro! [/p][p]

Discover the Truth About Patti – Befriend Them With Bread! 🍞[/h3][p]After years of research, we’ve finally uncovered more about the mysterious Patti!
They’re naturally social creatures who live in herds.
But once they grow up, they leave the group to find a new home and companions of their own.
Unfortunately, reality is harsh...
Over 86% of Patti get lost on their journey.[/p][p]Accustomed to the safety of their herd, they struggle alone, hiding in the grass and enduring hunger in solitude... 😭
Brave adventurers!
This is your chance to lend a helping hand! Approach them with bread, and they’ll happily join you as loyal companions.
(And yes, they’re soft, fluffy, and delightfully squishy!)

A New Home for Patti – The Back Garden Ranch! 🎉[/h3][p]“Chaya! Another Patti snuck in through the back door and ate the bread again!!!”
The once-desolate backyard of the bakery has now been transformed—thanks to Chaya’s efforts—into a Patti paradise!
(Poor Effie was too busy baking bread to take care of the garden 💦)
Raise your Patti with love, and they’ll slowly grow up, eventually helping you in adventures—or even lending a paw at the bakery!
Look forward to it![/p][p][/p][carousel]

Chaya Reaches New Heights – The Final Skill Awaits! 🦊✨[/h3][p]With all the adventures and bakery experience so far, Chaya’s abilities have grown in every direction.
And now, witnessing her progress, Chiva is ready to teach her the ultimate technique—
a true final skill, the culmination of everything learned so far.
Will you master nimble footwork to become a swift, agile adventurer?
Or unleash crushing strikes to carve new paths with raw power?
Or perhaps become a master of elegant, skillful combos?
The choice is yours.
Forge your path toward becoming the hero of tomorrow!

[/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][p]That’s all for this diary... or is it?
Everything we shared today will be available in the upcoming Steam Playtest—before the official release!
That means:
・ A new map (partially unlocked)
・ A brand-new boss
・ The surprise-packed Patti Farm
・ And the third stage of the skill tree
All ready for you to try out early!
(Please note: This test is only for players who already own the Early Access version.)
This will be the last Playtest before the full release—so every bit of feedback,
no matter how small, will help us polish the final version.
The Playtest is coming very soon, so keep an eye on our announcements on X and Discord!
That’s all for the eleventh development diary.
See you all next month! 🦊💨
