Server Changes:
We had a lot of server issues at the start of early access, de-sync, too many servers and database issues. Since then I decided to get a new server with better hardware. Now we have one extremely powerful international server to host all creatures. All de-sync and server issues are now resolved. If we need to expand in the future we can. This was done for many reasons but you only have one login/account for every server even private ones now. You will have to make a new account but your creatures can go to any server in the future.
I had planned one data wipe before full release in the future. It was mentioned on the Steam store page prior, I also needed to change databases so instead of waiting until everyone is invested a lot of time I decided to do that wipe now on this update. This will be the only reset the game will ever have. It had to be done for many reasons like bugs with the database along with better hardware/software. Plus we needed a fresh start with the new server structure.
All early access players get a Supporter Pack as a reward for playing and helping the game grow. Every new creature during early access will get the pack it's automatically added to your inventory. You keep your creatures and account from the transition in the future to full release.
Supporter pack includes:
