World Generation V-2

[p]We're back from the dead - with a sweet new update! 🤩

We've spent the last month giving the mountain generator in SNØ a bit of an overhaul, based on our own observations and on some of the feedback from you guys!

The main motivation behind this update was to make SNØ feel more varied - for beginners and experts alike. We've added some brand new biomes and tuned parameters to allow for more varied starting scenarios as well as new discoveries to be made further down the mountain.

Here are all the new features included in SNØ 1.0.03.09

Additions[/p]
  • [p]🚠 Biomes - 6 brand new biomes to be discovered[/p]
  • [p]🌤️ Clouds - Slight chance for cloudy skies[/p]
  • [p]❄️ Frost - Slight chance for frosted obstacles (cosmetic effect only)[/p]
  • [p]🌾 Vegetation - Smaller, non-lethal vegetation can grow close to bigger obstacles[/p]
  • [p]👕 Skins - New skin patterns and colors[/p]
  • [p]🪘 UI sounds - Sounds play as you navigate the UI[/p]
  • [p]🔊 Audio Preview - Audio samples play when adjusting the audio sliders[/p]
[p]Changes[/p]
  • [p]🏔️ Extreme terrain - Terrain have a chance to get much more extreme than before[/p]
  • [p]🔀 More variation - New and more balanced selection of starter biomes[/p]
  • [p]🎿 Grinding - Improved steering on grindable objects[/p]
[p]Bugfixes[/p]
  • [p] 🐞 Fog bug - Improved draw distance on some quality settings[/p]
  • [p] 🐛 Lighting bug - Glowing skins and grind sparks will no longer mess up blizzards[/p]
  • [p] 🪰 Photomode cam - The camera will no longer go below ground[/p]
  • [p] 🪲 Selection bug - Exiting wardrobe with gamepad will now highlight play button correctly[/p]
[p][/p][p]🤔 So, what about the old mountains? 🤔 [/p][p]They're safe! Saved mountains and leaderboard mountains can still be played. Notice that the sharable seed of legacy mountains have been appended with "-1" signifying they were made using the V-1 world generator. If you ever feel nostalgic, simply append "-1" to any mountain seed and it will generate a mountain using the old settings.[/p][p][/p][p]As always, if you have any feedback on the new changes or the game in general, let us know here in the Steam forum or on our Discord!

See you in the new mountains! ⛷️
