5th August – Island in the Sun

Hey everyone! :)

Among the furniture sets implemented by our artists recently is the island-themed set!

I’ve been showing off a lot of purely visual stuff on the blog recently, and there have been a few concerned comments wondering why we’re not working on core features instead. I wanted to take a second to reassure everyone that we absolutely are working on core features!

Towards the end of each day, I ask everyone in the office what they’ve been working on. The programmers do amazing work every day! It’s just not all that exciting to talk about — or even easy to talk about — until it’s finished and there’s something visual to go along with it. Most days, the art team has finished up something cool enough for me to post about immediately, is appealing to most of the audience and isn’t difficult to explain.

At the moment, our coders are working on performance, inventory and quest improvements as well as  balance and polish in preparation for the next stable update.

I hope this has been helpful! Let us know what you think of the island furniture set.

Have a lovely evening! <3

3rd August – Fairytale Cottage!

Hey everyone,

It’s Monday! Wooooo Monday! People seemed to like our concept art posts awhile back, so here’s a quick sneak peek at some concepts for a future furniture set! :D

I’m really looking forward to having more furniture sets to play around with that aren’t biome-specific — this is one of my favorite concepts so far.

P.S- I’m super excited about the contest entries so far! By my last count, we’ve already got 130+ entries. Reminder that you’ve got until 14th August to enter. <3

P.P.S- If you haven’t checked out Wanderlust Adventures by Yeti Trunk, you should! It’s coming out on Steam 13th August. :)

31st July – Toxicity

Happy Friday, everyone! Here’s a snapshot of the new and improved Toxic biome – The last biome we have had to improve for the next upcoming update. These poisonous oceans are all that remains of a vast industrial complex, which lies scattered in pieces across the surface and the ocean floor.

Tell us what you think in the comments. See you all next week!
