We Have a Big Problem 🚨🚨🚨

Hello Collectors,
Playtest was supposed to be this week.
But no matter what we did, we couldn’t convince our NPCs (or our codebase) to put on pants.
They just kept strolling into the shop naked and proud.
So we gave up and added a “No Naked Entry 🚫” sign. Problem solved? We'll see.

Okay, now the serious part (kinda).

Unlike many multiplayer games out there, we wanted to support hotjoin — so your friends can hop into your game while you’re already playing.
That means no more “wait let’s restart” or “bruh, too late.”
More fun, more chaos, more trading — anytime.

But… supporting hotjoin meant a LOT of extra work:

Syncing NPCs, players, items, weather, cat moods, and the price of gum.

Making sure new players don’t break everything when they enter mid-game.

Basically, rewriting half the game just to make joining look like it was always that smooth.

So yes, we delayed the playtest.
But we’re doing it for you. And for our dignity. And for clothes.

And hey... we actually have some really cool plans to give you a true collector experience—
wait, I wasn’t supposed to say that.
Sorry team. Please don’t revoke my card sleeves. 😳

Thanks for being patient — playtest is close (and everyone’s wearing pants this time).
💛
