The Demo Is Here!
I'm very thankful for everyone who's experienced the Alpine Lake Demo! Almost 1000 of you have played and I've been listening to all the feedback I've come across! Here are some updates to the demo. Stamina Usage: The stamina system has been rebalanced to provide a less punishing experience. No longer will stamina be used when you miss a tree with your axe, or a stone with your pick axe. (swinging the machete will still consume stamina every time regardless) Pause Menu Map: The map in the pause menu has been updated to indicate your location. This should be help you understand where you are. Future improvements will come including merchant hours, and NPC locations. Photography: The deer and snake are now photographable! Sorry for making them literally impossible :D Bug Fixes & UI Improvements: Various bugs have been squashed, and the UI has received some polish for a smoother experience. Plus more! Important Reminder: Demo save files won’t carry over to the main game. Download the demo and start your adventure today!Read full article on Community Announcements (Andrew Cohen)AnnouncementsOfficial
