    Life is nothing without comfort.

  • Enemy Herder
    A dark mage who incessantly summons skeletons.

  • Interaction Icons
    Many interactable objects are now marked with specific icons to make them easier to identify.

Major update5 Sep 2026ArchaeologyArchaeology While testing the game, the archaeology branch was honestly a bit sad to look at. Everything else kept growing, while archaeology literally stayed stuck in the Stone Age. That is why the following adjustments were made to better fit the current state of Onyx. These adjustments also create a nice little loop to finally bring the requested dinos into the game ha. · In larger regions e…In-game event17 Aug 2026GiantsGiants Yeah, that just had to be. The first giant versions of plantable crops have been added. Nobody still knows where Nick gets his weird rarities from, but from time to time (30 %), he may have a bag of these unusual seeds available in his shop. They can also occasionally be found as loot throughout the world. · Giant Carrot (drops a lot of Carrots) · Giant Parsnip (drops a lot of Parsnips)…Game update8 Aug 2026FixesSteamworks integration temporarily disabled due to hiccups. Will be re-enabled in upcoming updates. Many thanks for the reports, Cynthera!
