Pine
Pine - Combat Music Showcase
We haven't done any actual development blog updates in a while, but as we're nearing release in less than a week, we're excited to focus on some awesome features that we've been building.
This time, we check out the combat music - we added an adaptive system of layers that checks what species you're fighting and how many, to then dynamically change the combat music to the situation!

Each species has their own theme that we blend the combat music with. The themes (and styles) can also be heard in their villages. A long time ago already we posted one of those themes on YouTube: March of the Litters!

All of this is done by our amazing friends from Other World Ensemble, who do all the music and sounds for Pine.
Pine is coming out on October 10th, that's only 4 days away!!!
Until next time,
The Pine team

Gamescom 2019
For the past few days we've already been showcasing Pine at Gamescom 2019 in Cologne! It's a blast - we're getting lots of good feedback and seeing lots of improvements for the last few weeks.
Come say hi to us and play Pine in Hall 10.2 at the Indie Arena Booth - there's a bunch of quests playable, or you can just roam around in the world.
Discord
We've heard a lot of people asking about our Discord server and where to find it - we'd be very happy to welcome you there!
Check it out here!
We are always around talking about the game, you can follow announcements, development updates and more. We have nearly 700 people on it so it's getting nicely crowded!
Until next time!
Pine is coming in October - specific date will be announced at the start of September!
We are happy to say that we're not far away from finishing Pine and that we're very confident about an October release date! As some final things are falling into place, we are yet to define the specific date, but we're releasing a brand new trailer to go with that at the start of September!
Gamescom, Switch and polishing
Our main occupation in this last stretch is not only finishing the PC version for Steam, but also aligning the Switch version that will come out at the same time.
Next week you can find us at Gamescom and play a LOT of Pine - we're giving you a bunch of quests to choose from, you have a full inventory of fun stuff and we'll just let you play around with all the systems, exploration and combat Pine has to offer. See you there?
So, how's the game doing?
In the meantime, check out some brand new gameplay footage.
This video shows the use of a Raid Flare, which summons a group of a certain tribe to attack another! If it's successful enough, the attacking tribe will even take over the village.

The Pine team
Pine is coming to Gamescom 2019!
We are excited to announce that we have been selected to showcase Pine at Gamescom 2019 in August this year! You’ll be able to play not one, not two, but 5 different quests at the Indie Arena Booth for the entire duration of the conference!
The whole team is going to be there, so we’d be super excited to see you in Cologne, show you the game in its full glory and have a chat! Will we see you there?
Content, content, content
We are also going lightspeed at finishing the game! Everything is coming together nicely, as we wrap up the final content, tweak and polish existing content and ramp up to release.
