Another major update in just a couple of months? Yes, that is correct! And it brings you new buildings, more underground gameplay, epic optimization round and so much more:
v0.16.105 Released
- New Building: a Fishing Spot is a smaller version of Fishing Pier, working on shallow water and perfect for placing in the narrow watery spaces, such as rivers
- New Building: Hammock Testing Booth works the same way as Scratch-Testing Booth, allowing to try Hammocks before buying

- Additional art for regular Icebergs
- Terrain visuals slightly improved
