The test build appears to have gone well with only one major error reported from all over the place so here's the low down on the next update. (Expand) We are also looking for feedback on further additions so do leave us a message should anything appeal.
Next planned additions and fixes include:
Bugs
Pressing the tool use button repeatedly will no longer cause the players animation state to freeze.
Watering animation speed will be slowed
Seeds will be fixed to plant the right crop. only turnips were growing in the last build.
Additions
New crop sprites and types.
New area (Town)

Character bits! We're currently throwing together the character animation pieces for the new customization system :P
Character customization: How and why bother? (expand)
I'm currently working on a new game with a team of people. Here's a mannequin being assaulted for test purposes. Gotta do what you gotta do for your damage systems.
I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.
Opinions on a new graphics style?
Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.
Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.
(Mines and menus preview build)
Available for testing now
Quick update on the project, Dialogue system has been rewritten from the old version of the game, functionally the same but a lot easier to use. The camera has been worked on and the inventory is being expanded with things like drag and drop.
