Patch Delay
We're a bit behind on the pumpkin patch because we ran into some more game-breaking and annoying bugs right before we were going to patch yesterday. Hopefully, the patch will be out in a few days once we sort them out, sorry again for the delay. A special thanks again for players who have reporting bugs. Thanks to you guys, our patch is full of improvements that we missed.
New Multiplayer Modes
Don't worry we should have fixed a bunch of multiplayer bugs, along with rolling out these new modes. These are the two multiplayer modes.
Farm Together:
All the players share a farm, gold, and can complete each other's quests (except for delivery quests) This multiplayer mode encourages players to work together to build their farm and complete the museum as a team.
Farm As Rivals:
In this mode, players get their own farms and do everything separately. There are points that players gain by doing various things, such as talking to NPCs and shipping items. Players compete for who can rake in the most points before a certain time to be deemed the top farmer. In a future update, we will add bonuses for players who are in 1st place. Until then it's just for bragging rights.
Vague Roadmap
Someone asked us about our roadmap, so here is a vague idea of what we're developing and in what order.
- Bug Catching (Jan)
- Animal and Fish Breeding (Feb)
- Pets (Feb -June??)
- Diamond Falls Town (Mar- July)
- Marriage and Kids (Mar- July)
- Cutscenes & NPC Dialogue (Jan- July)
All of these features listed have already been started on. We already have models for the pets, children, buildings for Diamond Falls etc. It's a matter of just putting all the pieces together.
As promised, we will definitely finish all the features promised. However, due to our tight budget we may need to start cutting smaller features we planned and we may not be able to take up players on suggestions we like.
Thank you so much, everyone, for your support.
