Oh deer! We’re also 25% off on Steam right now, so if you’re yet to support us, it’s a great time to jump in!

It’s primarily a content update focused on adding two new animals, stabilizing parts of the game’s balance and including quality of life improvements such as a redesigned building toolbox. There’ll be a trailer announcing the release date soon! Going into 2025, the team will be focused on completing long awaited updates such as animal socialization, babies and paleobotany. Since these features are so large, we don’t have an ETA for when they’ll be playable. As usual, though, we’ll be releasing Dev Diaries to keep the community informed and show progress as we’re further along.

This massive deer is best recognised by its absurdly large antlers, measuring in with a span of over 3 meters. [img]https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5169d31c810e0faa346016/a48c4606-e433-42e3-a975-808590a8719f/Megaloceros.png[/img] Also known as the Irish Elk, Megaloceros once lived across Eurasia with the cave bear and woolly mammoth. Despite the nickname, Megaloceros is more closely related to a living species, the fallow deer. Our scientists have noted the two animals making very similar calls, highlighting their common ancestry!

These include the Coastal Manroot, False Lily of the Valley, Maidenhair Fern and improved Scots Pines. There are 13 individual plants between them.

This update adds beech trees, daisy grass, dandelion grass, field grass, eared willows and flame azaleas (flowered and unflowered versions!) for a whopping 29 new foliage pieces. These plants have quite a bit of color, making them particularly great for more diverse habitats or within decorative planters.

There are quite a lot of these coming in Update 13, so please look forward to discovering them all when it releases in December.
