Hey everyone!
First of all, thank you so much for playing the game and for taking the time to report bugs and share your feedback. I read everything, even if I can't reply to every message.
I know about the current issues, including the farming station not working properly, collision problems, loot spawning bugs, balance issues, and a few other things you've reported. These are already on my list, and I'm actively working on fixes. You can expect them to be addressed in the next updates.
I've also been working on expanding the variety of enemies.
My goal is to make combat feel much more interesting by introducing enemies with different behaviors and roles. I want to have melee enemies, ranged attackers, fast and aggressive enemies, slow but powerful ones, poisonous creatures, robotic enemies, and many more.
In the nearest update, I'm planning to add 1–2 completely new enemy types. By the time the full game releases, I'd love to have at least 10 unique enemy types, plus several boss fights.
Work on the new part of the map is going really well!
The new island is planned to be roughly the same size as the current playable area and will include lots of new places to explore.
Here's what you can expect:
15+ story quests
Side quests
Notes and lore
New NPCs
Hidden locations
And plenty more surprises
The map itself is almost finished. Right now I'm focusing on filling it with quests, characters, rewards, and all the fun content that makes exploration worthwhile.
The new island will also introduce new crafting mechanics.
You'll be able to explore a huge crater to mine a new type of ore. After collecting it, you'll process it through two brand-new crafting stations:
Extractor – extracts valuable crystals from the ore.
Grinder – turns those crystals into a special crafting material.
These new resources will be required for crafting some of the new equipment and items available later in the game.
I also wanted to briefly address the recent negative reviews regarding AI usage.
Following community feedback (and Steam's requirements), I've added an AI disclosure to the Steam page.
Please, if possible, don't send reports or leave negative reviews solely because of the disclosure. They genuinely hurt the game's visibility, and I've already received strikes from Steam because of the situation.
I'm developing this game completely on my own, and I'm doing my best to make it the best game I can.
The AI tools I use are primarily development assistants—for things like debugging, syntax checking, and code optimization. If AI-generated placeholder content is ever used during development, I replace it with handmade assets, original art, sounds, or other custom content as soon as I can. My goal has always been to create a game with its own identity, and I continue improving it with every update.
Thank you all for your patience, bug reports, suggestions, and support. Every update gets the game closer to the experience I originally envisioned, and I couldn't do it without this amazing community.
See you in the next update!
