Build Release 21.02.2025 Announcement and Changelog

The February build release is almost ready!

Coming out of the Christmas vacations we immediately got to work and these are the areas we want to highlight for you:

The Alpha Camp is coming very close to its final state, the living containers’ interior design has made some great visual improvements and now looks very cozy, most of the models for the Alpha Camp are finished or very close to being finished.

The Warrior Village blockout is making some very good progress, as well. In the build, you can see a snapshot of our efforts to populate the village with all sorts of small props and items to make each house have a purpose and feel lived in.

Unfortunately many of the combat improvements we are working on need more time to get to a presentable state so they aren't part of this release.

This build introduces the Max Riv minigame, Riv is a femboy-type character so if that floats your boat, check it out 🙂

On the sandbox side of things, we have added a powerful new tool, the photo mode, and the accompanying camera post process settings and filters. These can be accessed in story mode, too, and in the sandbox in the level settings menu and placed camera settings. We are really looking forward to what you can get out of this.

And now to the changelog.
