...Yes. Haha. Did the game boot up with 0 audio? There's SFX and a soundtrack which should play by default...

Very cool! I wasn't able to watch the whole thing but did you manage to figure out fishing? If not, you will need to equip a fishing rod, enable the fishing skill, and then assign a fishing job by the water.

I like the music you had playing in the background! Good fit!

For those of you that prefer GOG over Steam or Itch, you can now find it there! :)

Hey friends!

Quick post to let you know I've put out a hotfix to the game. I noticed some load issues and wanted to put out a small update to address these. Here are the notes for it:

• Enabled additional error printing in the Player.log file.
• Fixed a bug where loading the game could sometimes get stuck in winter.
• Fixed a bug where the resolutions list wasn't showing options lower than 800 width. 768 should now be the lowest option to support the game's lowest resolution of 1200x768.
• Fixed a bug where players weren't able to mine upwards.
• Fixed a bug where certain blocks weren't being deconstructed by the clear/remove job and would then cause the block to not be assigned any clear/remove job again.
• Added additional text for the initial game boot to indicate loading. Some expressed that they thought the game was stuck here because it shows just a black screen.
  

Thanks and have a nice remainder o...

Hey folks!

Hope you are all doing spectacularly!

I'm still trucking along on this update and I'm starting to get close to a beta build candidate.

This month I ...

Thank you my friend! Your support is very much appreciated. :)

No worries! Thanks for the support an interest in the game!

The 0.10.0.0 version isn't out yet! I always release versions to both Steam and Itch at the same time. I'll post an announcement when this version is out. It's not quite ready and I can't give you an exact date. Thanks for your patience!

Amazing! I'm stoked to hear that. :D

Ya, I'd say there's a 25% chance for this to happen while playing as the bone brigade.

Hey Odd Realm crew!

This will be a VERY short dev log as I don't have a ton of new things to show off but I wanted to touch base so you know I'm still working away.

Let me take a sec to thank you all for your patience and trust in me. I know this update is taking a long time to put out there. I'm working on things which are complicated and difficult to wrap up and it feels like cutting one's lawn with scissors. However, I am getting closer each day. Also, I'm in the middle looking for somewhere else to live and that takes up a lot of my attention. But thanks so much for supporting me and the game and being a wonderful community.

As for what I'm working on, I'm still closing out the tasks which I mentioned in the last dev log but I also overhauled a lot of the job systems and world rendering engine. I did this because of some serious behaviour bugs that would appear but also because there was a pretty serious lag when changing layers, panning around the...

I wouldn't worry too much. It won't be something that affects all settlers. The idea is that traits would be unique making some individuals stand out. Whereas, in the current build, they're more like pawns and are rather boring.

In this specific example, *maybe* you have a settler that likes animals a ton and loses some happiness. I'm not saying your whole town goes into meltdown mode because you had to butcher your dog to survive.

Later, when I've added settler personality traits, this could absolutely be something to consider. 'Animal Lover' trait which makes them unhappy to have their pets killed, or something.

I've come to the conclusion that it's better to let players make their own moral decisions rather than me try and handhold based on what I would do as the player.
