Feature Highlight - Farming
Greetings Shopkeepers!
Today we’d like to go into some more detail on some of the changes we have for you in Faire Trade. Some of you were wondering how much Faire Trade is different from Winkeltje, and we thought it would be nice to lift the veil a little to go over some of the new features we are working on.
Plants. A lot more plants.
In Winkeltje we had 9 farmable plants. In Faire Trade we have, as of writing, 31!
We split up farming in 3 separate categories:
[h3]Regular plants[/h3]
You plant them, you harvest them, and that’s it. This is exactly like what you’re used to.
From left to right: Kale, Corn, Sugarcane, Cauliflower, Asparagus, Artichoke, Potato, Grain, Carrot, Watermelon, Pumpkin
[h3]Perennial plants [/h3]
You plant these once and you can harvest them multiple times, but they will still wither once an unfavorable season sets in.
From left to right: Bean, Strawberry, Tomato, Hop
[h3]Trees! [/h3]
A much requested feature is now here. You plant these once and once they’re fully grown they will continue to provide produce until you decide to remove the tree.
From left to right: Apple, Cacao, Plum, Pear.
Not depicted in the image above (because getting them all on screen was difficult!): Blueberry, Cherry, Lemon, Tea, Guelder Rose, Banana, Peach, Orange, Nut, Gooseberry
Farming is also a little bit more involved this time around, with plants only growing in certain seasons. Beans, for example, will only grow in Spring & Summer, and the plant will wither once Fall sets in.
This means you will need to plan your farming needs more carefully, as prices will also fluctuate based around the seasons. Those beans may be worth more in Winter, but that also means you have to store them for a while before you can turn a profit.
The separate farm plot
Another change is that you’ll have a separate plot to farm on. This allows you to dedicate your shop for actual shopkeeping, and gives you enough space to do some serious farming for those of you that want to. This is also the space where you will be able to hold your future animals. These take up a large amount of space, so make sure to choose wisely!
That’s it for today! We hope to see you next time, where we’ll reveal more about the new Rooms System!
