The Kickstarter campaign is now over! Thanks to 1,361 of you wonderful people we were able to raise 285% of our goal!!! Thank you so much!!

When we first started creating this game we were just trying to make a game that we wanted to play ourselves. We are so incredibly happy seeing how much this game also resonated with all of you! We are so proud of the community that is forming around this game. You are so kind and positive in your comments on each Kickstarter update and in our chats on Discord.

Next steps!

We are so happy to start working on this game with you and to embark on this great adventure together! We will be posting new updates as we continue working hard on the game for the October Alpha Access release!

We are also preparing the backer surveys with BackerKit and will be sending those within the next few days!

For those that arrived too late for the campaign, don't worry! You can still be part of the family! We just set up a Pre-order store in Backer Kit!

Lastly, if you haven't already, consider joining our Discord Server! The discord is the main gathering point for our players and we absolutely love hearing from you there! Click the banner to join:

Creative Mode!

Thanks to you amazing backers we reached another stretch goal on our last hours of the campaign! We are going to have a Creative Mode with infinite resources in a whole new island for all your creative endeavors! We are now 250% funded!!!

.

The Fox!

Today we're showcasing a new playable character, one requested by many of our backers, the Fox! We will be adding many more skins to the fox, in the upcoming weeks. And yes the fox WILL be in the Alpha game!

 .

Thanks to a few incredible backers that have backed our designer tiers we will have more playable characters coming in for the full game.

(A little note to the designers, a few days after the end of the Kickstarter, we will invite you to a private chat channel to discuss what would you like to have designed as per your tier.)

.

What is your favourite character to play?

Furniture Sets

Out of the three additional furniture sets, we started working on the cabin and fruit already! Here are a couple photos from the fruit set!

.

Bard

While we are probably not going to reach the Bard stretch Goal, we would like to let you that that is something we would really like to see in the game. Here's a little peak at the guitar!

200%, new stretch goal reached and more Gliders!
over 5 years ago – Sun, Sep 09, 2018 at 01:24:11 AM

 .

With one day to go we reached over 200% funded and reached a new stretch goal! Thank you so much to everyone that supported us so far and spread the word! We are loving the community that is forming around the game here in Kickstarter and in our Discord. We are constantly surprised with great comments, suggestions and fan art, like the one above from TheStarBear.

We reached a new Stretch Goal! We will be creating 3 additional furniture sets for house decoration in the game! These furniture sets will be themed after Candy, Cabin and Zen! We will post more about those in an update tomorrow. What do you think?

.

We are also working on more Glider Skins! We previously posted the Exclusive Kickstarter Glider, which is an entirely different model for the glider. But another of the Kickstarter Exclusives is the Steampunk Glider Skin! The Glider Skins are mainly texture modifications over the original Glider. Check out this concept art by TheStarBear!

 .

Another Glider idea we are working on is a Leaf Glider, like in the concept below by TheStarBear.

Planters and Emotes!

.

Today we're introducing Planter Boxes! With planter boxes you can set up your garden anywhere without the need to keep digging soils.

.

We also had some fun creating emotes for the game. Emotes will be a fun way to communicate online with your friends.

.

We are SO excited to give you this little update that Multiplayer will be in the Alpha! We still have a few small bugs to work out but we are confident it will be ready for the October release! 

We have heard that this is one of the most important aspects that the community wants in as soon as possible.
