Demo Update! What's new in the demo?
Demo Update Hello Cozy Miners! So, what's new in the demo?We rebalanced the economy to make it smoother and to make the upgrade choices more meaningful.We added new weather, "the rain", for those cozy afternoons working from home with a hot cup of coffee. :) We replaced the Sunset Sky with the Night Sky so you can try both day and night aesthetics.We reduced the costs of all the environments.Also, we made some quality-of-life updates, like fixing the double outlines of some animals, reducing the alpha of the tooltip so you can see what is behind them, and adding a few new animations.We hope you keep enjoying our demo! Thank you very much to the hundreds who have already tried it. ^^We are going to announce the release date very soon, so stay tuned and remember to follow us and wishlist the game! Best regards, Anton & Dave ^^Read full article on Community Announcements (Anton Indie Dev)AnnouncementsOfficial

Introducing the New "Library" Room! How Does Monty's House Work?
Hello little miners! ^^ Mmm... where can we start? Well, maybe we can start with how you can access Monty's House. While we were testing our demo build, we realized it would be nice to have direct access to the house. That way, it's easier to check on your progress or simply watch as you unlock new little treasures.Whether you're zoomed in or zoomed out, just click the House Icon and you'll be taken straight to Monty's House. To switch between rooms, you just need to hit the "Next Room" arrows.The sign above the door shows which room comes next, either to the right or to the left, depending on where you are.Monty loves hanging out in taverns and alehouses, so he asked us to add something that reminds him of his adventures outside the game. Pretty neat, right? Right? :sweat-smile:Inside each room, every unlockable little treasure has its own fixed spot and can't be moved. Monty is a little bit obsessive about how things are arranged in his house, so bear with us. We want to make our little buddy happy... :DFinally, here is what we've all been waiting for... TA DA! The new Library Room!Isn't it cozy? Look at Grey, one of Monty's cats. He loves sleeping next to the chimney after enjoying a nice bowl of food. ^^We've already placed a few little treasures around the room to give you a little sneaky peek.We plan to add several more items to the library, and even a whole new room!What do you think is a must-have in a library? And if you had to choose, which room excites you the most: a mysterious crafting room or another regular room for the house?Let us know in the comments below! We'd love to hear your thoughts.Have a great day,Anton & Dave ^^ PS: Demo will be out soon! The moment to wishlist the game is now! Don't miss out ^^Read full article on Community Announcements (Anton Indie Dev)AnnouncementsOfficial
