Snow and Rain Forests! (Update 0.5.0.0)

New islands!

We felt there just wasn't enough variety throughout Don't Sink so we went a little crazy with it. You'll find two entirely new regions in the game and a total of four new islands. These islands will be given new quests and cutscenes as we continue to develop the game.

What's next?

Hand-to-hand combat had been put off whilst we added more content but we finally are ready to work on it. The next update might take us anywhere from one to two weeks but it'll likely bring a fully featured hand-to-hand combat system alongside additional content.

New content & features

  • New quest, Bad Soil
  • New region, Caaporan
    • New island, Itaborahy
    • New island, Mairyporan

  • New region, Koldogrado

    • New island, Stalyoshka
    • New island, Frigidov

  • Implemented aspect ratio locking instead of stretching for the game window
  • Window can now be resized freely with the mouse
  • Added 15 new pirate crews

Minor changes

  • Particles can now be toggled on/off in the video settings
  • Night LUT has been modified slightly
  • New mountain assets added to various islands
  • Island particle system implemented

Bug fixes and performance improvements

  • Fleeing from battles now shows escape message

As always... stay salty sea dogs!
