FAQ Friday #7
Hey Smallfolk!
We've dived into our 'ask your questions' channel on the Smalland Discord and pulled out some great questions to answer!
How many players can play at the same time in one world, is the game lobby-oriented, or server-oriented? Will I be able to build a common town with my entire group of friends?
Currently, we are looking at both options and weighing them up. The aim is approximately ten players in a game at once for now. We’re making it as flexible as possible for everyone to play solo, with friends or strangers, to play as a group, or just be in the same world occupied by other people that you can bump into occasionally. Everything has been designed around these principles and we’re aiming for as many players as possible per game.
Are there going to be different animals and insects during the day and the night in the game?
Yes, Day and Night will affect things, as well as the weather and the seasons, some of these effects will be very minor, others more important to strategy
How will the weather system work in smalland?
The weather changes per season as does the temperature which also fluctuates. So the chances of rain, snow are all more likely to be heavier and lower or raise the temperature making it too cold or hot. This is set up to be organic and less scripted, so we create the feeling of a living breathing world, rather than being a repeating and totally reliable process.
As always, thanks for the questions!
