Hi there ShantyTowners!
I'm excited to share a new version of the ShantyTown demo available for you to try out right now!
What's Changed?
A lot has been shifted around, changed, improved and updated. With well over 100 changes between now and the last demo, it's hard to choose what to highlight, but I've got a few picked from the pile here that might interest you!
Updated tutorial and onboarding
Added new creatures
Added walking and drone camera modes
New water and atmospheric improvements
Changed playable maps to 3 major points
Updated dossier and welcome texts
Updated all music tracks and added menu music
New UI and gameplay sounds
Saving and loading improvements
Updated menus like settings
Fixed dozens of things, broke others, fixed those too
Added a bunch of QoL features and UI “juice”
