Hey Panda Peeps!

Happy homesteader Mallory is teaching herself to knit and couldn’t be more excited to show you her latest creation! As for what she’s made, you’re going to have to wait and see, but we’ll give you a hint: it’s something a bit more risqué than your usual scarf or woolly hat. And don’t worry, there’ll be plenty of flirting and saucy selfies to tide you over before the big reveal!

This cozy Phone Fling unlocks automatically once you get Mallory to Lover level, so if you haven’t had Mallory trip and fall into your game (and your heart) just yet, now’s your chance! Take advantage of our conveniently timed 10% off sale on her DLC Bundle, on now in the Store for a limited time.

We love you so hard,

The Pandas

Hi everyone! This is the last update you will read before you can finally play the new update. A few people have been following the Discord and checking to see when it is releasing. I will be dropping the update Friday as I have just a very small but important few bits I want to to clean up and I have fully ran out of time to do them for today. I know it's only a little over a day to wait extra but again I am sorry. Going forward I am going to be releasing more regular smaller content updates to keep things going smoother regularly as opposed to hard deadlines since as much as I like building excitement for a date, it's very hard to stick to for a solo developer.

What I will say is from my own internal play tests this update feels amazing to play and brings the game ever closer to the vision for it. I can't wait for you all to jump in over the weekend and hopefully the content makes up for the several delays!

Full patch notes will also be coming tomorrow in preparation for the release!

Thanks and see you in the Barrens on Friday!
