Hi Researchers!
Another month has quickly passed, and here is what I’ve been working on in the month of May:
More shops and building interiors:
For each shop, supporting mechanics have been added:
- Healer’s Hut: Added potions, such as speed (use tools more quickly) and strength potions (takes less energy to use tools).
- Blacksmith: Added upgradable tools. For example, hoes and watering cans can be upgraded to reach more tiles, and upgraded axes takes less time to chop a tree. Along with the upgradable tools, I've also added some metal ores that can be mined for upgrading tools and crafting.
- General Store: Added more food and decor items, along with new farming equipment, Sun Lamps. Sun Lamps prevent crops such as garlic from withering when there is too much rain.

Gold Watering Can watering up to 3 tiles.
Growing garlic around Sun Lamps, which withers if there is insufficient sunlight.
New townsfolk: Ming and Teagan
Two new townsfolk have been added! Ming from the General Store, and Teagan who runs the Healer’s Hut.
Ming came from a neighbouring continent to further his studies in medicine; while Teagan set up shop in Shimmerbrook as they wanted to reside in a small town while helping others with their homebrewed potions.

That’s all for this month! In the meantime, get weekly updates from Twitter, and we also have a Discord if you’d like to come chat! :D
Take care everyone, and thank you for your continued support! <3
