Weekly Changelog: v0.8.1

Weekly Changelog: v0.8.1

Hey everyone!

We're in the final stretch before the Early Access release!

I've been working a lot this week on new colossal sea creatures, but also on some friendlier ones that may become companions, who knows :)

For this week update, here are a few screenshots of creatures you will encounter in the first few minutes of gameplay.

The Coral Fish:

The School of Fish:

A giant (and anonymous for now) sea creature. You may have to zoom in on the picture, as it's on the faraway island in the middle of the image:

Also, as expected, there will be smaller updates to the demo in the upcoming weeks as I focus 99% of my time on the later in-game content. Here are this week's demo updates (build 0.8.1):

-Added a giant sea creature on top of the first faraway island you see when getting in-game

-Upgraded the Coral Fish model

-Improved the texture of the giant tentacles that are visible on the horizon

-Put most world minerals inside clusters to make it easier to add mineral variety

-Correctly reset new building placement rotation between each build

-Removed a brief underwater sound that was playing on game reload

Have a great week and thanks again for your support!
