(Mines and menus preview build)

Available for testing now


It's taken a bit longer, but we have the next test build ready for play. Once more these builds are not intended to represent the finish game, rather they demonstrate mechanics and new features.

Features this update include:

*Many, many bug fixes to previous farm test build

*Save systems have been expanded to three files

*Tools are now part of the players inventory

*Lighting system overhaul

*Demo shop now open for business (outside your house)

*Sell produce and earn money with the export box.

*Example NPC (Very basic and lacking unstable behaviours)

*Mine example added with 30 random floors to explore.

*Improved player physics.

As stated above this build is not representative of the complete game. Anything and everything is subject to change as we go on (especially sprites).

Find any bugs or have suggestions do let us know ;)

Our latest efforts have been rewriting our scene change code and with that comes some lovely transitions made using a greyscale image and a new shader.

Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)

Character bits! We're currently throwing together the character animation pieces for the new customization system :P

Light menu is still undergoing it's refit, some behind the scenes code changes making it easier to edit multiple lights. A light will also toggle on/off depending on its intensity. So custom events don't need to be loaded with two different commands.

Is he a... you know....

Celebrating pride month and all our other brothers and sisters fighting the world over for the personal freedom and rights that are still denied us. Some new menu themes that will crop up on each load up shown.

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.

Asking the big questions today. We won't support changing your characters outfit or gender but you can give our beloved testguy a name. Character customization will come later, as it will take planning to get it as versatile as we want at the moment.

Opinions on a new graphics style?

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.
