G’day everyone!
Did you know that Dinkum was released on July 14th two years ago? Back then, I wasn’t sure if anyone would play my little game. Now, two years later, I cannot express how wonderful it is to have a community that is so involved and enthusiastic, as well as patient, while I’ve continued to work towards version 1.0. So I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has played!
To celebrate the second Dinki-versary, John once again has his anniversary event running full-time. He’ll give you a ticket for every fish sold to him. So try and collect as many tickets as you can to claim some of his rewards. Once the anniversary event has ended, John will return to running this event only during the first week of every summer, starting in year 2. So get out there and do some fishing!
I’ve also heard that Franklyn has invented a handy new tool that might be of interest to any industrious wattle or fruit farmers out there - The Har-Vac.
The Har-Vac can suck fruit and flowers straight off the plant and into your pockets. This item will be available for people who have found a lot of the mysterious ore known as Berkonium. Oh, and Franklyn might need a disc or two to learn how to make it.
Finally, Milburn is selling something in the bank. I’ve heard that it makes banking more convenient on the weekend? That might be something you want to look into as well.
I hope you enjoy hunting down and collecting the new items included in this mini update.
I will be back soon with an updated roadmap, and I’m excited for what's coming next for Dinkum.
Thanks,
James
