Game Development: Merry Hives

Post by jorb »

We've been developing, and here's what's new.

Image

New Implementations
-----------------------
  • Implemented Bee Dungeons. Occasionally, when raiding wild bee hives, a thunderous shock may reveal the tree holding the hive as suffering from a far more severe case of bee infestation than was at first apparent. To delve deep into the sacchariferous depths to find the source of the infestation could be a great adventure indeed, and much could be said of this, but we shall leave the details for you to explore for yourselves.
  • Strange, sugary, icicles now hang from the trees during Christmas.
Key Fixes
-----------------------
  • You may now put hats on Claim Poles.
  • You may now put hats on "Skull Pole"s.
  • You may now put hats on Orcas, thank you stream gang!
  • Log Cabins are now always offeset to the lowest point on their bounding box, which should help with making house placement a li'l more pleasing to the eye.

As always, if you liked what we did here: Support the patch.

Today's Patch Items, for the fair price of $5, $10, and $15, are the "Gingerbread Cavalier", the "Snowman Hat" and the "Yule Jester's Cap".
Store Description wrote:Image$5 A knight of wintery vistas, ready always to draw a candy cane in defense of treats seasonal.
Store Description wrote:Image$10 Cold around the ears, but with a smile on your face, this hat brings the winter to any wonderland.
Store Description wrote:Image$15 Laughing with the joy of a new-born child, and expecting a child foretold, this hat brings the cheer to any gathering!
All Silver subscribers haven been awarded the "Gingerbread Cavalier", and all Gold subscribers have been awarded the "Gingerbread Cavalier", and the "Snowman Hat", free of charge.

In the Pipe
-----------------------
  • With this patch we are signing off for some Christmas r'n'r. We will be back in the New Year with more patches!
  • Again urging any custom client maker who wishes to stay relevant to get with the new rendering times. Support for the old resources will be dropped at some point.
  • Our primary development direction is toward object-controlled-objects.
  • Time to... like us on Facebook?
  • Time to... follow us on Twitter?
From all of us, to all of you, a very, merry, Christmas.

Enjoy!
