We're happy to announce Verdant Skies 1.2: The Storage Update! This new content update focuses on several different storage related improvements (plus some other goodies, of course!). A new storage box can be constructed very cheaply, and you can place as many as you need to store your goodies. But that's not all; a new collection shop contains all the cosmetic items you've ever unlocked. So you can repurchase items you've lost, sold, or been unable to store. Or maybe you just really want 15 mannequins for your house.

To help with seed and animal DNA storage, the transgenic splicer upgrade allows you to combine different species of crops and animal samples. If you're trying to upgrade multiple seeds, this really reduces the number of seeds you need to keep in storage. We've also added seed labels, which let you keep track of your favorite combinations at a glance! The labels show up on the crops grown with the seeds too!

Finally, now that we've been our for three months, we're starting our first sale! We're participating in a weeklong deal, and Verdant Skies will be 33% off for a week- starting now.

New in version 1.2.0:
