• Devblog 17 - Shop content progress! - 1 July 2026

  Hi everybody! Really great progress this month. We are back on shop content, because we got so far with fishing/biomes, the shop part of the game was falling behind - Beta players were running out of space for their fish collections and shelves, so it was a good sign to switch after the swamps biome was finished!I did a community vote on the discord, and it seems like overwhelmingly people were really wanting more upgrades of current mechanics, store expansions and employee systems. There was also a decent amount of votes on making decorating do something for the game.Already got the biggest task done - The second floor to the shop. This was tricky because the original shop was not meant for a floor, but I got it figured out!Huge relief that we got the employee NPC working! NPC coding is really difficult for me, so it's really nice to see it working and relatively bug-free. I hope this…

• 7.3.0 - Freezers & Shop 2nd Floor & Shop Expansions - 25 June 2026

• Community Question - Should I post main game patch notes? (Non-Demo patches) - 25 June 2026

  Hi folks! I just wanted to see what's the best way of keeping people engaged while I work on the game. Now that I'm working on the later game content, the demo won't get patched too often and focusing on the main build of the game. Do you prefer regular patch notes when I update the main build/engine of the game. This way you can see how stuff is coming along more regularly? Or do you prefer a once-a-month post showing you all the stuff that happened during the month? (I'll still do those at the end of the month) Let me know in the comments below, I might try to experiment with posting the patch notes more regularly and see if that's a better way to show people I am actively always working on the game! I've been making really good progress this week especially and think it's a maybe a shame people don't know. But maybe people don't want to be spoiled (Though they can just avoid reading…
