Okay, so let's talk design. The original pitch for Kaiju Fishing was Wind Waker meets Animal Crossing, oh yeah and giant freaking monsters. Well Mutant has shipped games, but nothing that was every really narrative heavy (personally I fall on the mechanics side of the story vs mechanics designer debate). So as we started production the story was always put off to the side and kinda hand waved in a “we’ll get to implementing it later” type way. This isn’t to say that there isn’t/won’t be a story in Kaiju Fishing, just that our approach to building was to put it on the back burner. Well the rubber is meeting the road now as we’ve had to restructure the studio, and well, we’ve got 2+ experienced programmers, but no writers, so obviously something’s gotta give. What we’ve learned so far from attempting a game with a heavy narrative is that it’s much more resource intensive (basically we need more people working on the game, and that’s just not feasible right now). So the narrative has be scaled down.

We’ve got a lot of gameplay systems implemented so far (Small & Med sized fishing, Kaiju Fights, Bait Crafting, Collecting…) but if we were to lose the narrative focus, that means that there really wasn’t a reason for you (our players) to go fishing. Basically the narrative was going to be the glue that binds the game together, and with our new reduced focus on narrative that means something has to take its place. After a bit of brainstorming we think we’ve hit on a system that you’ll like.

Welcome to Upgrade city. Our new direction takes us back towards something Mutant is very familiar with: Upgrading (for you I Can’t Believe It’s Not Gambling fans, how fun was it upgrading your trash can to a shiny trash can! Then you got to put a hat on your shiny trash can!! Then you got to put a shiny hat on your shiny trash can!!!) Except now you’re going to be upgrading something that affects gameplay (sorry I Can’t Believe It’s Not Gambling marketing team): your Boat.

We’ve already whipped up design docs, and even have a prototype done. I would go into specifics about all the cool upgrades we’re working on, but it’s early yet, and I’d hate for anyone to get their heart set on one, only for us to find that it doesn’t work for our design. So I’ll leave that for another day.

So yeah, that’s the news. Kaiju Fishing is going to be much more mechanics based, and you’re going to be choosing to upgrade your boat with a wide variety of cool attachments (maybe even upgrading your boat to hold even more cool attachments).

We have partnered up with the wonderful team behind Don't Starve Together, Klei Entertainment, to celebrate their 10 year anniversary by bringing a new, exciting update to Cult of the Lamb!



Webber has made an appearance in Cult of the Lamb, and would love to join your cult!



Scroll over the text below to find out how to get Webber!
When killing spiders at the base, there is a chance a skull will spawn. Bury this skull in a grave for the Webber Follower to appear! This Follower will have a trail of spidery friends following along behind. This new Follower form includes a sinister selection of variants too!

You will need to unlock this Follower first to access the new Penitence mode, and unlock the new décor!

Some strange technology has appeared from a mysterious land... just what is 'science'?



New decorations include:

• Alchemy Engine
  
• Deerclops Figure
  
• Marble Tree
  
• Pig Head Flag
  
• Science Machine
  
• Potted Treeguard
  
• Hay Wall

Arise, Lamb! Sate your ravenous hunger, and rest your weary eyes.

This is a brand new mode that brings in survival mechanics inspired by Don't Starve - Hunger, and Sleep!



When either bar is too low or empty, a mysterious timer will appear. You will take damage each time it counts down. Be sure to rest and feed your hungry little Lamb or not only will they perish, it will be game over... permanently. To play this new mode, select it when starting a new game (just like the Permadeath mode!).

The key to survival will be to manage both your Hunger and Sleep levels - they will continue to go down, even when on crusades. You will be able to abandon a crusade early, but this will come at a slight cost of some of the resources you gathered.

Our audio director River Boy has been hard at work adding more music to Cult of the Lamb! Check out the new tracks below!

After 5 and a half years of development, as I'm sure you can imagine, it's a difficult thing to find a cut-off point. The game is fully release-ready, but we've already had talks of what's to come next!

1. Localizations - We unfortunately had to remove our Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean localizations for now. They simply needed more work, and we'd rather they not debut in an unpolished state. These will be added back in the moment they're ready. We are also crowdsourcing various other translations. Learn more about that here.

2. Mod Support - We've always known that Paper Planet's simplistic art style would lend itself well to mods. It keeps that artistic barrier nice and low! Work has already begun on crafting proper mod support with the Steam Workshop. We'll announce this as soon as it's ready!

3. Dialogue System - Many who played the demo will remember pre-battle banter with the bosses. This system is currently deactivated. The plan is to further polish and expand on that, while implementing localization support.

As soon as we've tackled some of these additions, we'll head back to the doodling-board, and will attempt to develop a longer term roadmap. There are heaps of ideas already circling!
