November Dev Update
Hello everyone! We wanted to update you on what we are currently working on. We have nearly completed the AI and hunting systems. There will be a variety of animals to hunt and fish in each biome.
We are also nearing completion of the farming system. There will be 6 different flowers, fruits and vegetables to grow. The flowers can be used to craft different tonics.
This month we will be putting the finishing touches on these systems as well as completing the old growth forest biome. After that we will begin dialing in a long list of secondary mechanics that will add immersion and depth to the overall experience. Next month we will provide a detailed breakdown of some of these mechanics.

October Dev Update
Hello everyone! We just wanted to update you on what we are currently working on.
Biomes
Retreat To Enen features multiple biomes that the player can travel to from the main island of Enen. We are currently working on the huge old growth forest. The biome features dense trees, lakes, open meadows and will be a terrific area to hunt for large game such as deer and elk.
Hunting
Speaking of, we are also in the midst of adding AI and bow hunting to the game. We want the hunting to be challenging but not frustrating. Big game will be fairly common, but the player must be careful not to startle them and it could take some time to find a large animal in the huge forests.
Base Building
We have also implemented the majority of base building. The player will have to level up to unlock all pieces. The building starts with more primitive clay walls and eventaully will advance to concrete and glass.
Thank you all for your support so far throughout development! Definitely wishlist the game if you haven't already. Follow us on socials (Twitter) as well as join our Discord for the latest updates
