Developer Log - April 17th, 2026
Hi reader,
Thank you for taking the time to read this devlog! As a brief recap, we are the two person dev team building Wild Haven, a nature ecosystem builder. We want to begin by announcing our participation in Earth Appreciation Festival 2026! If you are interested in other nature themed games or dystopian games please check out the festival on Steam! The team at Slug Disco does a great job of curating a great selection of games that are focused on our planet. Additionally this year, they are partnering with Cool Earth a group focused on protecting the rain forest.
For the game, we’ve spent the last month finalizing the build tree with all the wildlife you can grow within the final game and by our count we’ve added over 100 different wildlife that can be grown and nurtured through your run. From a basic shrub to wolves and eagles! We’ve also finalized the talent trees and quests that you’ll discover along your journey.
But there is always stuff to fix, improve and tweak so we hope you all try out the demo and give us your feedback. With the different parts of the game starting to be finalized, we are almost ready to announce the Steam release date for the game. Until then, we want to thank you for trying out our game and we would love any feedback on how to improve, any bugs you find etc.
Sincerely,
-K & R
