Journey of Life
Changelog 8
V0.0.6.2
I've recently announced that will be adding more animals.
Last few days we were working on way to spawn a quite numbers of animals but not affect performance too much.
We basically finished the first island except for new items we will add on new updates.
Items are placed logically now.
- All kind of rocks can be found near cliffs or on gravel
- All kind of sticks can be found around big trees
- Dry parts and fibers can be found around frond-like plants ( Alsophilla )
- Bananas can be found only on part of the island that's receiving a lot of sun over a day
- Pandanus fruit can be found around screw palm
Everything still needs to be tested. We still have the plan to do some optimizations.
We will focus next update more on content and use of items around the island.
Animals are dropping animal lard and meat at this moment.
I have the plan to do item special by the kind of animal.
Currently, this is the base.
Demo is updated.

Announcement
I'm sorry for update delay.
I wrote down on upcoming version but I'm is not sure did everybody saw that.
We encountered a bug with widget interaction we didn't manage to solve it yet.
It's related to a problem with not able to change categories once you enter workstation.
We are working on that problem and it should be fixed in few hours.
We just want to be sure everything works well now for the best gaming experience.
Thanks for understanding.

Announcement
I was so happy because a lot of you gave us support and good comments.
As I was watching all videos and streams that people played I saw which things they were struggling with the most.
So I decided to make a new map and make things more interesting.
The new map is 6x6km
It has 4 big islands and 10 small ones.
(This is an only top-down view, you are the white arrow)
To realize how big is this.
We used a different technique on this map..its split into 50 small parts which will help with game optimization and loading time.
So you won't need to wait 4-5 min until the game loads as it loads only part of the map where you are spawning atm.
Every island is special in some kind of way.
We have an
- active volcano(Sulfur fields nearby),
- underwater caves connected with natural pools
- natural mines with minerals and ores and much more
Keep tuned for more :)
Thanks for support guys, you are awesome!
Let's make this the best game ever!!

Important news
As few YouTubers gave us chance and played our game, we see that there are things that still need to be fixed.
Because of that, I've decided to do delay sale for 2 day's until we fix things mentioned above.
I'm glad that people have given us a chance, especially since we are a small team of 2 people with no budget.
As much as we need money for further development we think its fair to delay as few crucial things in a game doesn't work properly.
Thanks for understanding
