Survival Tips for the Demo
Need help surviving in the Canopy?
We just published a Survival Guide to help those that are having a hard time, are stuck on something, or just want to learn more about the details of the game.
The Survival Guide talks about Oxygen, navigating the Inventory and Containers, and more.
The main Dev will be hosting a Live Q&A while we show the playthrough of the demo!
Join live to check it out and ask any questions you have about the game. He will be going over the history of Project Canopy, where we are at currently and give some sneak peaks at future content.
If you'd like to follow the game, get updates, see the Roadmap and participate in our community with giveaways, make sure to sign up on the website and Wishlist here on Steam! Sign up: https://socksandgoats.com/project-canopy

More announcements to be announced on livestreams with Q&A with the dev.
- This wouldn’t be a survival update without survival stats, right? Oxygen, Hunger, Thirst, and Health have all been added to the game using our new framework. - Take the HoverBike for a spin to zip through the jungle faster than ever before. - Look for the new massive creature roaming the vegetation - New Starter Pod where you can replenish your oxygen, store and retrieve items from your personal container and a Fabricator to craft items hangs on the wall. - Crashed Ships can be found around the map and usually have loot inside them. - Some performance tweaks have been made so vegetation can be seen further.

New Creature in Development - Swamp Bison
The Swamp Bison is so immersed in the thick jungle swamp that the vegetation and ecosystem grow on and around it. It only leaves the safety of the water to munch on nearby foliage.
