Hey there girls and guys.

This update fixes some issues you posted. A great thank you for posting bugs. I really appreciate it.
I know it is not much this time but I am working on the map right now which takes a lot of time so I decided that I will post the next update on the 23th of December where I will have finished the last 2 biomes.

Minor changes in inventory, weapon and tool management will be made in the next update and some item additions as well as new armor and weapons.

When the biomes are finished I will work on the sky castle which will finish the map in it's first form (I will polish a lot of areas after that and implement the story to the game)

I know a lot of you want to have pvp content but this will be more expanded as soon as the story is completely included into the game.

Have a nice weekend.
