We’ve been grinding nonstop on your feedback ever since the Demo dropped, and today we’re rolling out our first major patch. Here’s everything that’s changed.
Quick rundown of what’s inside:
Full quest system overhaul
Tons of new creatures across the world
Art pipeline polish
New chest filtering
Gameplay & control improvements
Miscellaneous QoL tweaks
We heard you loud and clear on the janky tutorial and quest flow. We rebuilt the whole thing from scratch.
Smarter quest detection: No more crafting the same thing twice
If you already have a campfire built at your base when you get the quest? It auto-completes. No redundant crafting required. This works for all material and building-related quests now.
Way better quest guidance: You’ll actually know what to do
1. We added proper location markers for most quest objectives, and fixed the bug where quest markers would vanish out of nowhere.
2. We also added clear hints for key resource spawns. No more spamming global chat asking where to find clay 😭
3. A lot of longer quests have also been split into smaller, bite-sized steps so you always have a clear next goal.
Actual gameplay tutorials: Now you’ll know how features work
We expanded and smoothed out tutorial quests for farming, animal husbandry, fishing, and more.
Also — NPCs will now come visit your camp instead of making you trek all the way back to town every time. No more endless back-and-forth running.
“So many weird little guys running around now”
Goblins in every biome now have their own unique skins.
There’s also an extremely fast goblin hiding underground — rumor has it it drops super rare ore when killed.
The snow biome got a bunch of new creatures, and some of them can even be tamed and brought back to your base!
Oh, and there might be a tough new foe roaming around too.
Pixel sprites and character portraits match way better now. No more jarring visual disconnect.
On top of improvements to quick deposit/withdraw, you can now set each chest to only accept specific items or categories. Finally, NPCs will stop messing up your perfectly sorted chests.

We tightened up a ton of core feel:
Pickaxes and axes now use area-of-effect hits instead of single-target
Monsters take continuous knockback
Balanced tool stats across the board
Longer placement and interaction range
Customizable camera zoom: Zoom in or out however you want
Multiplayer performance improvements
Lower VRAM usage: We swear we’re not mining crypto in the background 😂
We saw a lot of you joking about absurdly high VRAM usage and accusing us of leeching your GPU. We found the issue: with FPS set to Unlimited, rendered frames would stack up nonstop and bloat VRAM to hell. It’s fixed in this build.
That’s the bulk of this update! We hope it makes the game feel way better to play. We’re still working through tons more of your feedback, so we’re heading back to the grind. Catch you in the next patch!
