Finally I can tell you what has kept us busy the last couple of months. Because today, the 8th of May, we release the new "Tidy Up - Quality of Life Update" for Winter Burrow! So sorry if we have seemed a bit distant, we hope you will feel that it has been worth the wait!
You are probably thinking "Yeah, yeah, enough talk, let's get on with it, what's in the update?" and that, I will answer now:
📦Separate Burrow Storages: Each storage item you craft will now represent its own storage space. Now you can sort your stuff into whatever system you like using different chests or wardrobes. This also means that the infinite Burrow Storage is now a limited storage space.
🎒Increased Backpack Inventory Space: We heard you! ;) The base amount inventory in the backpack has been increased with 4 slots, hopefully saving you from some trips back and forth.
🛋️Furniture Gives Benefits: Don't underestimate the benefits of a nice and comfortable home. Furnishing your burrow will now increase your maximum stats giving you an added benefit. Different types of furniture affects different stats. The better quality the furniture has, the higher the stat bonus increase.
🪑More Furnishing Options: Furniture rotates in four directions, so now you can finally see what your wardrobe looks like from behind! But not only that, you can now decorate your burrow with an increased level of possibilities. We’ve also added Layered Furnishing, so you can finally place a rug under your favourite dinner table.
🎮Play Modes: You can now play the game in two different modes. Story Mode is for if you just want to relax and enjoy the story, and Challenge Mode is for when you want the game to pose an even harder challenge. You can swap between them while playing.
💾Extra Save Slots: With 3 save slots you can now run several game sessions at the same time, allowing your close ones to embark on their own winter adventure without messing around in your extremely well decorated burrow.
♻️Recycle items: We’ve added recycling! A way to dispose of unneeded items, and (if you are lucky) there will even be some materials left that you can use for another purpose.
⌨️Rebind keys: Despair no more! We’ve heard that many of you have a particularly great way to set up your keybinds. We’re happy to share that you’re now able to rebind keys to your heart’s content. (This is only for the PC version).
🕳️Fast travel: If you want to get home quick, then see if you can find one of the secret mole tunnels to use as a shortcut.
😴Sleeping Animation: Curl up for some mousy dreams with subtle signs of rest and recovery as this cozy new sleeping animation unfolds around you.
Together with the above things, we have also improved the mouse scrolling menus as well as a bunch of other bugs and small improvements.
We’re so grateful for all the love and support you’ve shown our game! 💕
We hope these extra touches make your time in Winter Burrow even more special 🐭
Mousey greeting
Benjamin
