Hello!
Development on Zoo Life Simulator is moving full speed ahead. In this first devlog, we’d like to share the main areas we’ve been working on recently to improve the overall quality of the game and lay the groundwork for future content.
Shader and mesh optimizations have been implemented.
Landscape and environmental materials were created and improved with performance in mind.
Overall scene optimizations were made to deliver a more stable gameplay experience.
Small issues identified in the map design have been fixed.
Terrain grass has been refreshed in certain areas, resulting in a more natural and lively look.
Work on vegetation and environment design is ongoing.
The number of zones for Area-1 cages and service areas has been rebalanced.
This improves space efficiency and makes the gameplay flow clearer.
A radio tower has been added to the map and positioned to better fit the environment.
Issues with the driving mechanics have been resolved, improving overall control and responsiveness.
Balance adjustments were made to the in-game economy.
Co-op gameplay improvements were made to enhance synchronization and overall multiplayer stability, resulting in a smoother and more consistent cooperative experience.
We’ve started developing new gameplay ideas that will further enrich Zoo Life Simulator. We’ll share more details about these ideas in upcoming devlogs.
We’re excited to announce that Elephants will be joining Zoo Life Simulator soon.
With their unique space requirements, behaviors, and management dynamics, elephants will play an important role in the later stages of the game.
We’re also working on an Off-Road Track system to make exploring the zoo more engaging.
This feature will introduce:
Terrain-based driving mechanics
Nature-focused exploration routes
More dynamic transportation between management areas
This is just the beginning. We’ll continue to share regular updates as development progresses, and your feedback means a lot to us.
