Hello everyone, and happy New Year!

First, I want to apologize for not uploading the planned update this week. I broke my shoulder on the icy roads—some of you may have seen my post about that on Discord.

Despite that setback, I want to share some work-in-progress and what’s coming next:

  • Farm animals & chicken coops: You’ll be able to build coops and keep up to 5 chickens. Don’t forget to give them food and water—they’ll produce eggs!

  • New items, recipes & ingredients: I’m adding things like flour, wheat, eggs, and more. Plus, new weapons are coming: sniper, crossbow, and flamethrower.

  • Horse riding & hunting: Horse riding mechanics are nearly done, and I’m working on wild bears and wolves for hunting.

  • New areas: Get ready for a bigger town with shops, houses, and quests. There will also be rock mines, poisoned zones (requiring special gear and filters), and more.

  • Performance & graphics improvements: I’m planning new settings for low-end devices (45–60 FPS, Steam Deck) and enhanced graphics for high-end rigs, including RTX GPUs.

  • Crafting ideas: I’m considering adding something like a sewing or armor table to craft better clothes, backpacks, and more. Not confirmed yet—let me know what you think!

I’m reading all your comments and reviews and continuing to fix bugs. Your feedback really helps shape the game.

Thanks for your patience and support—it means a lot! ❤️
