This is the first update of the final 10 updates leading up to the games V1.0 release on 1 February 2027.
1. Inventory Selling
A much requested feature - being able to sell inventory items at the shops has now been added to the game! Of course, due to the crumbling economy the shopkeeper is not going to be able to offer you full price, or even half price for your goods. But luckily you are also able to sell certain junk items that have no purpose as well allowing you to make a little extra profit from your hoarding habits.
2. New Flying Mini-Game
A new helicopter flying minigame has been opened up, which can be accessed from the tavern.
If you find a drunk helicopter pilot currently inbetween shifts, he will ask you to help him make a delivery
of essential supplies to assist a nearby vetinary operation. This requires you to fly a helicopter from the rooftop of the tavern to a nearby location within a certain amount of time. You will be required to balance speed and fuel consumption while not crashing. The higher you go, the easier it is to avoid obstacles but the more fuel you use and higher risk of running out. The helicopter will need to be flown to the location before the timer runs out.
3. New Contract Job
A new contract side-quest job can be accessed from a notice board in the tavern, this counts as the same type of side quest job as the marigold/gin job from the previous update you do for the groundskeeper and can not be done simultaneously, accepting one of the other jobs while another is active will cancel the current job.
This job tasks you with thinning out local Warthog populations that are destroying the food and water supply on the reserve causing other animals to be in danger due to overpopulation and undersupply of available resources.
These kind of jobs also aim to teach players that conserving nature is not exclusively about "not killing" animals, but about conservation. Preventing illegal hunting and encouraging legal and responsible hunting. Understanding that not everything is black & white.
4. Environment Improvements
Fixed the last few remaining unrealistically steep cliff terrain around the map.
Plugged up a final possible entrance found to squatter camp backdrop that was not supposed to be accessible.
Added physical holders to shotgun found inside grow room for more environmental realism.
Fixed many trees that had exposed roots and blank undersides.
Fixed some floating rocks.
Added more easter eggs.
4. Gameplay Improvements
Final "Finish Line" flags in ostrich racing now have classic checkered flags to differentiate from all the other flags and denote the end of the race.
Made mission 4 backup countdown start a little bit after the second wave begins for better clarity on the situation.
5. Bug Fixes
Fixed weird collision issues with warthog colliders not always enabling after spawn.
Fixed a cliff group with visible undersides near golden frog collectible zone.
Fixed missing "Loot" pickup highlight on a golden warthog.
Fixed bug that would sometimes cause buffalo to run around in circles while playing the walking animation.
6. New Achievements
2 new Steam achievements have been added for completing the new contract job as well as the new helicopter flight job. This brings the total number of achievements to 94. Only 6 more achievements will be added to the game during the final phases of development bringing the total number of achievements to 100.
