Card Survival: Fantasy Forest News

Hello everyone!

We hope you're doing well.

In addition to the usual Patch Notes, we have some news for both our Japanese players and the players that have been waiting for the Research Mode.

As of today, Card Survival: Fantasy Forest should be available in Japanese. We're glad to welcome Japanese players on board, we hope you will enjoy the development of this game!

Regarding Research Mode (CS:TI's Blueprint System), we already have a working version on our side but we still need to test, polish and properly integrate it to Fantasy Forest. We'll be doing this over the weekend.

And now the Patch notes:

Hello again!

Today we have another patch and also a message to tell you what our plan for the first stage of the Early Access is.
You can find the patch at the end of this message. ;)



[h2]The Road Ahead:[/h2]

As you know we are working hard to address the most important issues reported.
Here is a list of them and what we are doing to correct them:


- Quests are too Constraining:
We have added the ability to skip the tutorial quests, added a free mode, and we are now working on implementing the Research System we had in Tropical Island. We believe we should have it up and running a few days from now. :)

- Screen too Dark:
We will be adding a brightness slider to the options as soon as we are done with the Research System.
While we know this will not solve all related issues it should hopefully help make things better.

- Food Rots too fast and Starving all the time:
We have substantially increased the shelf-life of most edibles in the game. We have also reworked satiation so that it now takes 10 additional hours to reach the ravenous (hungriest) state which we believe is more realistic than what we had before and works much better.

- Getting Lost in the Woods:
We're already working on the first update (called the Exploration Update) which should include many new landmarks for the forest, some special things to find while foraging and a way to find your way if you get lost. We believe these things will help enrich the forest and make it more interesting to explore.

- Not Enough Content:
Once the other main issues have been addressed, the plan we have is to keep releasing regular content updates every 1-2 weeks while we work on improving performance.
Here are some of the things you can expect from the next updates;
- Squirrel and Partridge Spirits.
- Archery with different arrow types and enchantable arrows.
- Toxins for weapons and arrows.
- Household Spirits.
- Salves, Soap and Candles.
- Bread Making.
- Beer Brewing.
- Snow Shoes.

Once performance is in a place we are happy with and we feel we have released enough updates we will proceed to release the first big update (the Mountain one), which should increase the map size and add a good amount of additional content, including new animals (normal and legendary), a metallurgy system featuring multiple metals and a lot more.
