Tooltips update
Hope everyone is safe and at home during this pandemic. My city and country are in lockdown as well and that is why I was not able to post announcements or updates. As the lockdown was extending I went out one night to my office and got my PC at home so I can start working again.
I've put up a new update day before yesterday.
It adds tooltips for new players and fixes a couple of small bugs.
I'm going to be uploading another update tomorrow or day after
That will have
- New notifiers
- When overlapping stuff it will highlight and will inform the things player can do with that item
- fixed smell bugs
- Added new water sources.
Next update will have a new main menu. Like you can see in the images and in this brief video below:

New Scent system
A lot of games do scent only by highlighting stuff.
I wanted to make a more realistic scenario where the scent is in the air and the player needs to find the item by themselves.
As the player progresses the player will be able to scent more accurately and not so much deviations when finding items.
This is who the progress will work.
Beginning the scent will wade too far away and fade too often and quickly.
Player animal will be able to remember fewer scents.
Expert the scent will not wade and will be much more clearer towards the end goal.
Player animal will be able to remember much more scents.
New Landscape, UI, Steal held items from other players
Hope you all had a good weekend and great holidays.
I didnt take off and instead was fixing my game.
Where the game is at first week of Jan ?
- Completely new 8km^2 landscape with 2 different forest eco systems.

- New UI system, still rudimentary but gets the job done.
- New animation system for deers.
[previewyoutube="k-b-q4P83kQ;full"]
- Herbivores can eat normal grass and not just specific plants.
- If you are holding an item, it is essential you take it to a safe place and stash it or other player s can steal it from you, as seen here :

What's happening right now ?
It has been quite some time since my last announcement, so here is an update.
The previous game was majorly in Blueprints so it was laggy and buggy. I'm changing all of the behavior and scripts of the Player into C++, that is going to take some time but it is going to be smooth and bug free.
I hope I finish up with that by September so expect an update then, basically I'm making the game again :/ *sigh* only if I did it right in the first time.
I hope once that is done I can pick up the pace and do weekly updates.
For those who haven't been able to join the Discord.
Here it is : https://discord.gg/Qt42v8p
I get 10-15 up votes and 3-5 comments and honestly that has made me so happy.
I'm super excited and happy to get this game up to standard and reach its potential.
Please let me know if there is a need for any other social media like:

Thanks for all the support.
