# BY MY SIDE — #1 MAJOR UPDATE - On 10.07🐕✈️
### The wild is about to feel more alive than ever — and this time, you decide who walks into it.
🧍 Choose your survivor
Begin your journey as one of two fully-animated characters. Pick who braves the wilderness — right at the start of a new game. Customize the look of your survivor's parts to make them yours.
🌲 A living forest
Hand-crafted new pine trees, each with its own subtle shade, so no two corners of the woods look the same. Rooted a little deeper into the earth, and dressed in fresh snow when winter comes.
🎬 A cinematic arrival
Stepping into a new world now opens with a sweeping camera that settles you gently behind your survivor — and the interface fades in only once you've landed. Arriving is finally an experience.
✈️ Build your own aircraft — and reach a whole new world
The ultimate goal. Gather rare materials and build a flyable aircraft piece by piece — craft the wings, the propeller, the engine, the wheels. Then take to the skies… but take care: parts can wear and fail mid-flight. And where those skies lead?
✨ Leaner & sharper
Hundreds of megabytes lighter, better-looking characters, and a whole stack of polish under the hood.
