UPDATE 2.3 IS HERE!!!!!!
CHRISTMAS IN APRIL?... nope But I do have a pretty Major Update for everyone today introducing: Timed CosmeticsThat's right have you ever thought to yourself, wow I just love when developers are out of touch and introduce limited time cosmetics to games as a cheap way for me to engage with whatever reused content dropped this month... No well get ready because I added them anyway. thankfully they aren't actually limited time, just based on what day you boot up the game! (go into your system settings and modify the clock if you're impatient I've seen your animal crossing saves) -I added one for my fathers Birthday (this will give you a real way to earn the B day hat) -I added a way to earn my Fathers Hat (Boot up the game anytime in April) -And a way to get those sick Halloween Hats (Boot up the game anytime in October) other than that its mostly bug fixes and some neat new achievements so check out the...

The 2.0 update is almost done, bringing a suite of new features! NEW ADDITIONS COMING SOON!-------------------------------------The bathroom -skins -inventory screen -a whole map screen -quest tracking -and more!!!!! While I don’t have a concrete release day it will be available before Christmas ends so less than a month left!!! While waiting, why not vote for Mort at the STEAM AWARDS! That's right he’s throwing his hat in the ring hoping to claim the coveted "Game of the year" that's right we are going big or going home and the cabin fireplace is looking very toasty. but if we can get over half of all purchases to vote us for game of the year ill add an "almost made it 2 game of the year" trophy in the house (because I know the people that made dispatch and those who made silk song are about to take over so many categories otherwise we would obviously win) so get to voting!!!!! that's all for now but until then here is a sneak peak at the next update... enjoyRead full article on Community Announcements (Tizby)Patch NotesOfficial
