Pumpkin Patch 0.2.18

Pumpkin Patch 0.2.18 is Out!

Here is a list of some major things that we worked on since the last patch.

NEW

  • Giving NPCs gifts on festival days gives bonus friendship points.
  • Festival days with new merchant shops (In progress)
  • Cutscenes added for 4 characters. (New cutscenes will be added moving forward)
  • Wild animals in the forests (They currently don't do anything at this time)
  • Giving NPCs gifts on festival days gives bonus friendship points.
  • Hats added to the clothing shops.

FIXED

  • Balanced learning cooking recipes which are based on ingredients shipped.
  • Fixed Npc heads turning when they are asleep.
  • Players can hold and run around with chickens again
  • Fixed items disappearing in storage
  • Fixed shop keepers not being at their shops sometimes (again)
  • Fixed friendship points exploitation.
  • Fixed bug where dirt farm plots were invisible in multiplayer games.
  • Significantly improved performance for non-host players connected to a multiplayer server, when playing at night.

Some of the new features like festivals and cutscenes will need weeks of work to be finished, but there will be new cutscenes and festival items added with the pumpkin patches moving forward. We're also anticipating some bugs we missed, so if you discover anything amiss let us know and we'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

Since it's the holidays we'll be taking it easy this month. So there will be no major new features until next year. In the meanwhile, we will be working on bug fixes, and small patches throughout the rest of the month.
