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

took all day but it's all in now. every level gives one point in every stat, and your playstyle will affect your characters stats as well. swinging a sword increases strength, hitting enemies increases sword ability, etc.

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

what do you think?

some of the ledges and torches that help guide the path now. definitely much easier to find the right path/climb the towers now.

I have yet to beat the boss without taking damage, he always gets me at least once lmao. maybe you can do better :D

in case you need the controls layout until we're able to update it. gameplay hint; don't underestimate how useful a well timed dodge roll can be 😉.

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

Reworked some of the farming systems to help a bit with more accurate placement. so now the player can walk when they're tending the garden and the hit locator will change colors depending on if it hits something else or not.

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

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.
