Upcoming build! Hooray? HOORAY!
🕑 Added 2019-02-24 00:37:41 +0000 UTCHello, my little big adventurers!
First and foremost; I’m sorry for the radio silence. The past month and half (...or a little bit over? ...or two months?) have been very hectic with both change of the year and Steam Early Access release causing a combined havoc that have pretty much eaten all my time outside of Hunt and Snare’s development.
The next build, what is probably the thing that interest you the most, is NOW in internal testing; So Patreon release is getting VERY close now! ^^
The big feature of r5.23 is the first pass of game saving; Auto-save system. We currently save progression based on a character; This includes time of day, where you are in the game, and what you’ve said and done with the characters in game. We don’t save the captures yet, because they will be based on a different system in the future ^^
We also made a rather large optimization pass, basically redoing the vegetation and post processing setup from ground up. It gives a nice boost on mid tier and higher tier computers, but sadly doesn’t translate to visible difference on lower tier. Once the graphics menu is ready to roll (hopefully build after this one); You should be able to squeeze some extra juice out of lower tiers too!
As you know; r5.22 introduced Davh (doggies), and because of that we had to temporarily disable nearly half of the acts to get the build out. We’ve now effectively fixed every single act (except the longer acts available only in Showroom, but those are fairly temporary to begin with), bringing the act number back to 48 as it was before… AND we’ve upped the amount to 73 with 25 new acts xD
Based on my initial testing, it took me 15 act locations before I got the first “double”, so there’s quite a bit more variation to acts when prowling around with your buddy <3 Obviously, the build also has a huge number of fixes and tweaks, but those are just the bread and butter ^^
I would estimate the build to be out next week! Assuming, of course, nothing critical rises in the internal testing, but thus far looks good :3
Also, we’ll try to keep you more posted after this build! I promise *fingers crossed* ... I mean fingers crossed on properly keeping you up to date as we should, not fingers crossed for the promise!
Yours, truly, very scalely,
~Ruffleneck

So don't do like Bethesda then? But seriously take your time, we would rather wait for it if it won't crash or freak out in some way. So yeah don't be like Bethesda...LOL
Thanks so much for the update! It really helps ease my mind, and no rush on the next build! Take your time with each build please, because I would rather it take 2 months for the next build, and it be a complete build than it be rushed and be full of bugs and glitches that ruin the experience.
