Update 0.6 (The Nutrition Update) is now Live!

Howdy fellow farmers! Enter Update 0.6.

The Nutrition Update , as i’ve been teasing these past days, introduces a food system that allows you to grow Vegetables, Fruits and Grains and mix them up to make food for your chickens.
The two most noticeable changes will be that both the Barn Tab in the Corral Tabs section of the screen and the Nutrition Tab inside the Farmer’s Digest are now accessible to you.

-The Barn Tab is basically your inventory, where you will stash all Fruits, Veggies and Grains that grow in your corral.

-The Nutrition Tab will allow you to buy all you need to manufacture food: plants, seeded pots, paddies, vines, extra nutrients and vitamins. You name it.

-Food Processors are available in the Farmer’s Digest Construction Tab, these will allow you to mix all your crops into nutritious pellets.

Right now I’m introducing 2 kinds of crops: Pitaya and Rice, 1 type of food processor: DIY Processor and added the Manual Water Extractor to the Farmer’s Welcome package.

Tomorrow in a follow up patch I’ll be introducing 3 kinds of crops: Tomato, Wheat and Carrot; 3 types of Extra Nutrients: Protein, Vitamin and Zinc, as well as a Small Water Pump which will extract water automatically only using energy. This is order to receive player feedback and make any pertinent changes before delivering the bulk of content. I want to know what you guys and gals think.
