1.16.7 Hotfix Is Available - Please Upgrade!


Dear shipmates,

As some of you might have realized by now, we have released a 1.16.7 "hotfix" on top of the major 1.16.5 update. This new release contains two fixes over 1.16.5:

* It fixes a crash that would occur when Floating Sandbox detects that a new update is available;

* It fixes a graphical issue on some specific graphics cards, whereby the ocean would be rendered as completely white.

Especially the first issue is a bit annoying, as that bug was introduced in 1.16.4 and it is now making it impossible for us to allow Floating Sandbox installations worldwide to detect new updates. For this reason you are *strongly* advised to upgrade to 1.16.7; we will then re-enable automatic updates once enough users have ditched 1.16.4 and have upgraded to 1.16.7.

So, go ahead and upgrade!!! And talk to you soon with news on the next update!!!

Heya there! I really wanted to show you all a little gameplay preview of the first boss fight i'm currently working on i hope you like it ^^

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Finished work on the emotions of a new character for the tank universe
