Updates to the crop system so you can tell when they're ready to harvest. also working on building add-ons for the homestead so now chicken coops are placeable. chickens can be harvested for their meat if you need it more than the eggs

I'm bad at predicting time frames 😆 every time i think we've only got a few weeks left, something pops up to steal my focus lol... we're still making progress though, getting the village updated, combat reworked a bit, and ai improvements.

WIP of the intro cinematic. Still very rough draft... but now we'll be able to add cutscenes and dialogue, to actually let the player communicate with the townsfolk and learn the story.

Exciting :D

random post, but this is where 85% of the game was built lol. my sister is selling it and it'll be gone tomorrow, but i wanted to document and share. a little 'behind the scenes' type thing lol.

We're launching a demo for our game "From the Heartlands" soon, if you'd like to check it out we have a page for it here on gamejolt now 😀. Heal the land, build up your homestead, help your neighbors and fight back the Witherbark.

Dialogue is in, with conditional checks and branching options as well, its feeling more like a game already

The deeper you go, the darker it gets...

digging the title screen, and the music helps make it feel like a real game lol.

what do you think?

if you're interested in learning a bit more about us, we were featured in the february issue of Indie Gamer Magazine. he did an amazing spread for us amd some other awesome looking indie games, check it out!

Finally got some icons for the craftables and decorations, so here's a little video of decorating the homestead.
