• You can now change the day-night cycle speed to slow, normal, and fast. (Normal is slightly faster than what it used to be)
  
  
• Screenshot pose troll holding gnome above campfire has been removed, it wasn't removed after taking screenshots for the Steam page.
  
  
• The game now works fully from third-person! When interacting the camera will no longer zoom in but instead, you'll be able to accurately interact with everything from third-person. The position of the third-person camera has also changed slightly and moves with a small delay, giving a more cinematic effect.
  
  
• Rats no longer spawn in passive mode (Now Cozy Mode)
  
  
• Falsly copyrighted weather music during a storm has been temporarily removed.
  
  
• Crater gnomes no longer refuse to talk to player when player has died dirty.
  
  
• When you die of starvation food and water now refills +15 upon respawn, to prevent endless dying cycle.
  
  
• Extreme dense fog should no longer appear when inside a building or cave, and should generally happen less often.

• The game now has three different game modes which have replaced the previous two modes, passive and normal mode.
  1. Cozy Mode: This mode replaces the previous passive mode. Cozy mode is now fully optimized for exploration and building, the survival aspects of the game are disabled and there is no danger.
  2. Normal Mode: The new normal mode is more balanced than before, slightly less difficult, you'll get hungry and thirsty less quickly, fall damage is slightly less, etc.
  3. Expert Mode: Is quite a bit more difficult than the previous normal mode, it focuses mainly on survival, food and water go down quickly, more fall damage.
  
  
• Intro has been made clearer, it's more apparent that the player needs to go upstairs. And more rope plants and ropes are spread throughout the intro area to prevent the player from staying stuck over there for too long.
  
  

First of all, have you already seen the brand-new trailer!?

Secondly, here is the new plan for 2024!

• March: Translating the game into multiple language options, and a farming mechanic. Getting to the lowlands will also be made easier and faster while keeping the story intact. Fish will spawn more often near player when in the water, especially in the lowlands, incentivizing the clog boat and the newly added goose. An option to speed up the day-night cycle.
  
  
• April: Improving the forest part of the map (Steynwoud), so that every 60 to 120 seconds something new and interesting is discovered. Some parts will be remade to make it less realistic and more optimized for fun, exciting, and meaningful gameplay. Empty areas will be filled up more, further incentivizing exploration.
  
  
• May: Caves will be improved, they will have improved traps, new puzzles, glowing mushrooms, troll houses and villages, more loot, gold, interesting features, and more! Crafting and building will be easier and more fun/rewarding.
  
  
• June: During this month I will test the game and based on feedback from players I will find ways to improve the game. I will do this with the following questions in mind: How can the game loop be better, and how can the game be more meaningful, enjoyable, and fun? So during this month, I might add a whole new mechanic, adjust a lot of things in the game, or both! Be sure to send me your feedback!
  
  
• July: Wandering gnomes, spawning all over the map, sometimes playing music, other times having fun dialogue helpful to the player, and sometimes selling things. Gnomes that make music will be placed in more towns and villages. NPCs will react more to the player's state, for example when the player steals from them they will likely be angry, or if the player is hungry they will offer food.
  
  
• August: Notes with useful information and lore about the world will be added and spread throughout the world.
  
  
• September: Another test and improve month (See description for the month of June)
  
  
• October: Another test and improve month (See description for the month of June)
  
  
• November: More of the story will be added and the magic system will be expanded and put to better use.
  
  
• December: Another test and improve month (See description for the month of June)
