0.8.2: QoL OUT NOW!

Flotsam

The floating garbage town survival game! Scavenge what precious garbage you can from the ocean's surface and grow your city while doing your best to survive in this colorful post-apocalyptic world.

[h1]0.8.3: QoL[/h1] Hey Drifters, Here's a small Quality of Life update that continues on 0.8: Farming and 0.8.2: The Chef. Crops will no longer be temporarily found in supermarkets. Instead, you can now find them at landmarks in rural regions. We've also added a Mill that mills wheat into flour, creating a more streamlined process for producing Yummy food. Bon appetit! [h2]What's next?[/h2] There's still a much-needed update needed to the [b]localization[/b], as some languages have been lagging behind. They will get a welcome refresh soon! However, certain parts, such as the Survival Guide, may still be untranslated as we're planning to expand the tutorial and information sections of the game shortly after. So localization will be updated in chunks over the month of July :) [h2]Early Access 0.8.3: QoL[/h2] 0.8.3 introduces several Quality of Life (QoL) improvements, farming additions, fixes, and miscellaneous changes.
