Anniversary content update 2017-10-25

We're happy to release this autumn-themed celebration to Meadows' first birthday! (Technically it's tomorrow, October 26th, but we're doing a little head start since it's a wednesday today.)
Whether you were in the beta group, or just picked this up, we hope you'll enjoy the update. See you all in the Meadow!

Content additions

  • New animal: Hedgehog The first animal who never have appeared in another Shelter game, the Hedgehog have now waddled into the Meadow!
  • New collectable category: Mushrooms 24 types of mushrooms are now available to find in the Meadow. Divided up in common, rare, and fabled, these fungal treats should light up quite a few strolls in the woods and caves. A task for Doctor Malcom, or will someone else step up?
  • New pheasant skin A new skin based on the winning entry from the pheasant skin art contest, by SeleneTheWerewolf!
  • New toy: Leaf piles Jump around and rejoice in these poofy piles for some autumn feeling.
