tl;dr
- New Far East biome
- Big Foot
- New Costume
Hey there Ylanders!
We are nearing our first update after the release of Ylands out of Early Access and while there will be a lot of fixes and polishing, we also have some cool stuff lined up. Today we’ll have a look at a couple.
First up is probably the biggest change to Exploration in 1.1 and that’s the Far East biome. This biome inspired by the far east of Japan and China will be a great addition to the tried and tested biomes. You’ll be able to find the Far East Yland in nearly every Exploration map and you can also play around with it in Editor. We also prepared a score of new encounters that will populate new Exploration games, so I’m looking forward to your exploration pics of these.
Next up is the dreaded Big Foot! This guy is the distant cousin of our beloved Yeti, but Big Foot isn’t an easy-going lad, but rather a ferocious creature ready to pounce on any survivor, so beware when you explore Ylands not to fall prey to this mythical creature. Creators will also be able to use Big Foot in their creations and this could turn into a fun photographing game for instance, trying to snap the ever elusive Big Foot. Our hairy fella also comes in a variety of colours, so there really is a lot to play around with.
And maybe a few of you have noticed an ominous figure in that last screenshot. Let’s just say, that dressing up has just been made a lot more...automated. You’ll also be able to pick up this costume in the next update so really a lot to look forward to.
We’ll talk about 1.1 even more next week Ylanders, but until then,
Stay classy!
