Patch notes[/p]
What is the new biome?
The new biome is called Luminescent, inspired by Bioluminescence coastlines that light up the night!
In the new Luminescent biome, you can find:
- New trees (giant mushrooms!)
- New flowers that glow (based on real flowers, Firefly Petunias!)
- New blooming trees (giant mushrooms with glowing spots!)
- A beautiful new biome that seems to be in a perpetual night 🌙
- The new biome is available in 4 colour variations, red, blue, green and purple.
Let us know what you think of the Luminescent biome, we hope that you all like it! [/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]Where are the monthly challenges?
We wanted to share a quick and honest update about post-launch content - especially Challenge Mode.[/p][p]As you may have seen, there have been some changes behind the scenes in the wider organisation, which have made things a bit trickier when it comes to planning out content updates. Team structures have shifted a little, and that’s had a knock-on effect on how quickly we can get things out the door.[/p][p]That said, We are still here, still excited, and still fully committed to supporting ISLANDERS: New Shores long-term. We’re doing our best to navigate the changes in a way that keeps the game and the community moving forward.[/p][p]Our hope is to roll out the first version of challenge mode in the next free content update, but we want to take this moment to ask: what kind of challenge experience do you actually want? High-score hunts? Creative goals? We’re all ears. [/p][p]Drop your thoughts in the comments - we’re reading everything, and your input will help us shape what is next. [/p][p]Thank you so much for sticking with us! [/p][p]- ISLANDERS team, and Coatsink 🏝️[/p][p]
