Hey Guys! New Major Patch is officially here!
Are you ready for new adventures?
New patch is live!
It features New Zone that doubles the size of the game, New Animals, New Crops, New Quests, New Farm Equipement, New NPC and lots of new features such as improved tools, new crafting system, new cooking system, home decorations and much more! \
As some of you know it already went through weekend beta tests and two days of live testing. We have already released two hotfix patches and are working on next ones.
Thank you very much for your feedback and support. We couldn't ask for a better community!
Most of this update is just a recap of a patch preview from weeks ago so if it sounds familiar it is ;)
Early Access
No Place Like Home is actually our first digital project. We just wanted to say that we still have tons to learn and mistakes to avoid in the future and we very sorry about any issues and inconvenience that our game may cause you. We are very dedicated to removing all bugs and issues but it takes some time to fix them all. Thank you for your patience!
Ok so what's new? - New Content Recap
New Recipes and Crafting System
You can now buy all your item recipes from vendors in exchange for specific food and Jar Currency.
Once you buy the recipe for an item you can craft it in your crafting station with Recycled Materials and Resources.
Recipe Vendor and Crafting Station:
Three Simple and Fun Tools
We also redesigned our tool system to three simple and fun tools:
- Drill- Hit or hold Left Mouse Button
- Water hose - Hit or hold Right Mouse Button
- Vacuum - Hit or hold Space
New Kitchen and Jar Maker
Our next introduction is a new kitchen system where you will be able to use your food to cook delicious dishes. Those dishes will be required to domesticate some animals, complete some quests and learning new recipes as well as making new friends. With new patch you will be able find cooking recipes allover the world!
You can now also change all your food into Jars - main trading currency in a very convenient Jar Maker.
New rooms, wallpapers, wall pictures and furniture
With new patch you will be also able to unlock new rooms, setup new wallpapers and hang pictures on the walls! No need to live in dirty house anymore!
Whole new Zone with new quests, enemies, animals, crops and dungeons!
Regarding new content, we have plenty of things for you to find and enjoy together with whole new zone and quests. We don’t want to spoil too much but you can check out below just a few things that we have prepared for you and we are very happy to say that new zone and dungeons increases the game 2x in size!
Old Save games
During development of the game we have encountered many optimization issues which finally forced us to divide whole game world into smaller zones and adding loading screens between them.
Despite our efforts some of the old save games may no longer work at the moment.
We do plan to fix it but it may take up to 2 weeks. If you still want to preserve your old save games that are not working right now please do not save over them otherwise your progress will be lost.
Since we already fixed zones problems this issue should not happen again in the future.
Thank you for your understanding
