Ropuka's Idle Island News

Update 1.8

Hello! Patch 1.8 brings some of the highly requested settings for our frog friend:
  • Two slots for Ropuka's accessories
    Ropuka can now wear a hat and glasses, or headphones and the humming notes. You can find the new accessory slots on the new tab in the Frog window.
  • 6 new hats added to the collection
  • Added new tab to control Ropuka's behaviour
    • Cutting mode lets you control if Ropuka cuts the grass evenly, or focuses on the one closest to his home
    • Sleep mode controls how long Ropuka's naps take, Relaxed makes him sleep twice as long and Sleepy four times as long. To make sure you progress at a similar rate, after sleeping in those modes, Ropuka will collect 2 or 4 times as much grass!
    • Talking mode lets you decide if you want Ropuka to greet you and talk to you from time to time or remain silent
    • Running speed allows you to make Ropuka walk a bit slower if you feel like he deserves a break.

We hope you will enjoy those changes, more updates to Ropuka's Idle Island are coming soon!

Update 1.7.0

Hello!

This week's update aims to address a few technical issues that our players encountered this week - primarily the lack of transparency/blackscreen bug. Please check this forum thread for more details:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/3416070/discussions/0/601900462106525443/

For this update to fully take into effect, a reinstallation of the game is required - this won't affect your savefile, but we've also included instructions on how to back it up.

Thank you for your patience!

Update 1.6

Hello! This week's update:

  • New Spring-themed decoration set in two color variants
    12 new items to collect and celebrate the spring!
  • Bug fixes related to achievements (in version 1.6.2)


Enjoy! 🐸🌿🌿🌿

Update 1.5

Hello! This week's update brings Catalogue and Achievements improvements:

  • Collection index page
    We've added a new page at the start of your Collection tab. It has shortcuts to all individual decoration sets. You no longer have to click 10+ times just to find the page you need!
  • '92 Collection
    We've grouped all current decoration sets under '92 Collection and moved all small houses to their respective pages.
  • Achievements changes
    We've changed current achievements to only count '92 Collection (eg. Unlock all house variants -> Unlock all house variants from '92 collection), this way we can keep adding new decorations without impacting anybody's progress. Once new collections are fully released, they will get their separate achievements added to the game.


With those changes out of the way we can continue adding new decoration set, with the first ones coming later this week!

What's next for Ropuka's Idle Island?

Hello!

It's been over a month since Ropuka's Idle Island was released. We are overwhelmed by the number of players, positive reviews, and love our game received so far! Today, we would like to share what we have in plans for Ropuka's future.

[h3]Catalogue Rework[/h3]
We are improving the book to make navigating and equipping your unlocked stickers a bit easier. This will also make it easier for us to add new decoration sets to the game!

[h3]Frog Panel customizations[/h3]
We want you to have more options over how Ropuka looks and behaves. Being able to equip more than one accessory, control Ropuka's pace of work, lower his movement speed, select which grass he cuts next are among the most requested features - we want to add them all!

[h3]New animations and activities[/h3]
Another big suggestion was to add more activities. Drinking a hot beverage, eating a delicious meal, dancing to music, sleeping under a tree - this is what you can look forward to! We want the island to feel more alive and cozier than ever.

[h3]A guest arrives at the island...[/h3]
We've also heard that winter is ending and an old friend of Ropuka's is coming back from a faraway trip, he may even bring him some gifts!

[h3]Other things[/h3]
And what's more? We are designing new decorations, new music and ambients for the island. We are also working on a highly requested Mac port and are actively considering other platforms.

Thank you all for supporting our little game!
