Today we're releasing one of the most requested features, the farmhands!
Farmhands are people you can hire to help you with specific areas in your farm. You can customize their working area, and can even ask them to plant specific crops to help you with your quests!
We're also adding a lot of other content, QoL improvements and bugfixes, so check them out!
New content:
- New town building: Farmhands Union, that allows you to place Farmhands on your farm. Also works as a centralized way to pay for their services.
- New crop: Pineapple (+ variants)
- New harvestable building: Silo
- New flag: Checkered flag
- New crop: Peanuts
- New road: Lilypad path
- New decoration: Planter (+ variant), where you can show crops or flowers as decoration.
Gameplay changes:
- Production buildings can now be part of quests.
Improvements:
- Quick travel buttons on the farm borders are now moved towards the inside a bit to prevent being partially hidden.
- The Quest log now shows a list of pending town shop upgrades, so you can easily check which resources are needed etc.
- Far west door now is properly transparent when seen from behind.
- Map: When the center of a group of tiles doesn't belong to that group (for example a O,U, or L shape), their corresponding icon is shown on the nearest valid tile.
- Changed the key used to zoom in / out UI while in splitscreen. The previous bind had some conflicts in specific menus.
- Flipped horseshoe decorations to point upwards. Good luck to you!
- Upgraded networking library to a new version. Should help getting rid of PhotonCloudTimeout errors.
- You can now exit chat mode by pressing the B/Circle button on the controller.

- Fixed unintended icons being shown while hovering over sprinklers.
- Fixed PS4 Touchpad button not being properly detected.
- Fixed Terraforming Drone moving while opening the inventory.
- Fixed Quest log issues.

- Fixed unintended behavior when interacting with an invalid tile while in Planting mode.
- Fixed camera getting inside buildings in photo mode while in Town.Not perfect yet, but better.
- Fixed a lot of UI bugs in Splitscreen mode.
- Fixed problems when opening the menu while teleporting.
