The First Major Update,


Empty your minds and gaze upon this text,

For the upcoming update, two major features are being added, widely requested.

1. THE BUILDING SYSTEM


Place logs anywhere and start building your dream log house, with little to no limitations.

2. THE AXE


Chop down trees and use them to build your fortress.

Also in the same update:

  • Difficulty scaling and World Settings: Change how you want to play., day length, entities' presence and rarity, starting depth, and more.
  • Find highly valuable artifacts, weapons, secrets and horrors inside the catacombs.
  • Plant tree seeds freely anywhere on the soil, and watch them grow into mighty trees.

Coming in the next few updates:

  • Major Night Events: Each with their own unique effect or entities.
  • Large Building Blueprint: Designate an area for construction (e.g., a barn), then bring the necessary resources to build it.
  • Bigger farm variant.

We have a discord with many dreaming of being a wood cutter in the haunted woods
