First off a HUGE Thank You from the team (Dan, Kristina and Thiago) for all your wonderful support, kind words, reviews (good or constructive) and hanging out with us in discord or on stream. We appreciate this community so darn much! A shout out to our beta testers and everyone that has given advice, suggestions and let us know about any bugs they've found.

There's WAY too much in this update, but it's definitely one of our favourites so far! We've got tons of photos for you, and if you've caught any of our recent streams (Twitch.tv/BittenToastGames) we've been sharing lots and lots.



If you've already loaded up the game and you noticed a ton of shaking, don't worry, it's not a bug! That's the earthquake that hits (or will hit) middle of year 2. When the earthquake hits you'll be able to help out the townsfolk, (with over 50 quests!), and even help repair the tunnels to open up the Fast Travel between the Town and the Campgrounds.



Tired of getting around on your glider or a mount? With this update you'll be able to work with the miners and repair the mining tracks to open up a fast travel between the town and the campgrounds!



Bzzzzzz we've got some news! We have implemented catching bugs (and butterflies with bottles) and you can even have your very own Apiary! Once you get some honey you'll be able to make some cookies and more items in the future! This is the first step towards taming bears, which will be implemented in the coming patches.



Let's start with paintbrushes! There are 9 Paintbrushes each with 3-6 colours/patterns to paint your walls, floors and ramps with. These are craft-able at the Paint Station which you can unlock after you purchase it from Roman the Blueprint Vendor.

There are also 9 Furniture Paintbrushes, these are used to paint almost all the furniture, planters and workstations in the game. With this brush you can even paint the Crystal Furniture and the Glass Walls and Floors!



We didn't stop there though! We've also implemented the Dyeing Station where you can dye Clothing Items and Gliders!Once you've purchased the Dyeing Station blueprint from Roman you can dye anything and everything!

What paint brushes would you like to suggest to add?



You asked for it and we delivered! This is something that wasn't on our radar until the community brought it up and wow do we love it! The Seedmaker is a game changer in Garden Paws, with it you can turn one mature plant into 1-2 seeds!

Sammy will deliver the Seedmaker blueprint to you in the mail on the first day of your first winter. (Don't worry if you've passed the day, you'll still receive the mail.)



There are two new caves in this update, one that you have to find and one that you can open up with the help of the Mayor and the Miners.



After the earthquake has triggered you'll be able to work with the Miners to open up a new cave that will hold a precious new item, the Crystal Geodes!

Crystal Geodes are very similar to the Geodes, but drop Quartz and other crystals.



Another huge thing we've been hearing from the community is to increase the inventory size. In this update Boris has 2 new inventory upgrades available to increase your max inventory by 11 slots!!

Another Inventory related feature we just added is the Craft All button!





There are a whopping 10 New Gliders! Some are patterns on the original, others are more unique including the Flower Glider, Butterfly Glider, Angel Glider and more! All of these gliders can also be dyed to suit your character best! Each Glider can be purchased from Alberto's Shop, the Angel and Butterfly can be unlocked through Alberto's new quest line.



Without writing a book on this update, we'll quickly sum up some of the other features and items you'll find in this update.



Item Shifter: With the item shifter you will be able to shift placed items left/right, up/down, back/forwards just a little bit. This is to aid in lining up building pieces.


Town Hall: The interior of the town hall has been added!!

New Recipes: Popcorn, Honey Oat Cookie and Strawberry Ice cream!



Guitar! There's a fully playable guitar! Clovis has it in their shop!



Names above people in Multiplayer! Tired of mixing up your friend? Their names will show up above them in multiplayer now!

Flower Planter: Purchase-able at Sierra's Shop after a short quest line.



Roof Building Pieces: There are two new roof pieces that are corner building pieces to create that perfect roof. (Yup there is a new paintbrush to give you a variety of shingle roofs too!)



Paintings! There are 9 Paintings, one is a Sad Cat painting by Daniel Snd, and 8 are screenshots taken in game. The paintings can be crafted at the Paint Workstation.

Are there any paintings you'd like to see in Garden Paws?

Abby now sells Vegetable seeds!

The window building piece has been adjusted to better suit our characters.

Patch Notes have been added in game on the main menu (bottom left).



Seeing as this update is so huge we may have missed some things in the update. We definitely get lost in our work but we are working on recording more of what we're updating in Garden Paws.

Our next step is the Creative Mode as we've got it almost done, you'll probably see that come out early June. Our main focus for June is the Dungeon though!

We have almost everything ready for the dungeon, just need to tie it all together with a nice bow, add some more weapons, monsters and a little bit of everything.



The dungeon levels will be 100% procedural with lots of loot to find and sell in your shop. If you don't want to garden at all you should still find enough loot to progress at a steady pace through the game. If you don't want to go near the dungeon or fight anything you're not going to miss out on any of the main content.



Dan, Kristina and Thiago started developing Garden Paws June 12th last year (2018). For this very important anniversary we wanted to host a community event on one of our servers for up to 32 people!

The event will go live June 12th at 12PM PST for a minimum of 6 hours. We have a maze, a jump puzzle, and will be doing races to earn prizes! This server is being built by Kristina and the beta testers and will have tons of goodies, we hope to see you there!

If you don't want to or can't join the server we will be streaming it on twitch as well.
