Hello everyone! The time has come for another update to the best game featuring mining moose on Steam!

Let's start with the main addition in this update, the balance minecart. A way to move around resources to fix imbalances between the amount of sticks and gems in the storage for wand crafting has been requested by a lot of you in different forms, but the idea of having minecarts redistribute sticks I first saw as a suggestion in the Lingon Studios Discord server.



The balance minecart is a train of minecarts that will pickup sticks from crafter areas that have a surplus of sticks and deliver them to crafter areas that have a surplus of gems. It is unlocked as an upgrade in the upgrade window. When unlocked it can be upgraded under its own upgrade tab with the same type of upgrades as the storage minecart, i.e. speed, storage, cart count and load speed. Keep in mind that the balance minecart is not meant to be a complete solution for balancing gems and sticks for crafters. You will still need to somewhat plan where you place your moose on the gem side vs tree side.

This update also comes with some additional upgrades that helps solve bottlenecks you would run into when the base was fully upgraded. There is a new tier of the storage minecart to unlock to further increase its speed and storage capacity since the current one simply can't keep up for a fully upgraded base.



The next is the new upgrade, Grinder slopes, which upgrades how much the slopes just before the grinders can store. This also increases the unload speed of the minecarts as well as increases the maximum available grinder speed. With these new upgrades you should be able to mine and process the gems and trees in the last rows of the current depth limit at much better efficiency.



Please note that some tiers of these upgrades are in preparation for the next update which will increase the depth limit, so you will most likely not be able to max out all these upgrades with the currently available gems and trees.

There are also a few quality of life things in this update. To begin with, the toggle fences buttons have been reworked a bit. Now instead of simply flipping the current state (fence on/ fence off) of the storage areas, they will set all the selected storage areas to the same state. The state they are set to depends on how many of the selected are currently on, but the first press of the button will sync them all up to the same state and then simply pressing it again will flip all of them to the other state if that was not the one you wanted. In addition to this, the buttons now also work with nothing selected and will then act as if all are selected. So now you can turn all the fences for the crafters on or off at the same time. This was a feature requested by many of you.

Two new navigation buttons have been added. One that moves the camera to the storage minecart and one that moves it to the balance minecart. The balance minecart button is unlocked after the balance minecart upgrade has been unlocked.

Then there are also a bunch of bug fixes, you'll find the full list of changes at the bottom of this post.

I hope you all enjoy the update and thanks for all the bug reports and suggestions you are writing on both the Steam discussion forums and on the Discord server. Even though I am not replying to all posts I am reading everything you write on the Steam discussion forums and in the moose-miners-bug-reports and moose-miners-suggestions channels on Discord. I just don't have time to reply to most things unless I need some additional information to figure out a bug or an issue. That's the life of a solo dev, so much more you want to do than there is time in a day.

We have added fireworks! Although we don't have anything to celebrate, fireworks are always fun.


We are implementing more and more stuff, if you follow our devlogs you probably noticed that we have Shopping Carts. These bad boys are the first vehicle that we managed to add to the game and well, those are not perfect.



A tilted camera like that is not what We wanted! But that was just another day in the office, bugs like that will probably haunt us till release day.

The player's office at the back of the Supermarket does not play a significant role right now other than being a spawn point for the player. Nevertheless, you can hold up a bunch of shopping carts there and save them from greedy customers.





The last thing was added way back at the beginning of development but I'm never bored of it - throwing trash in the garbage bins. The twist is, Instead of a direct approach, you can throw from the very end of the store!



You can almost forget that you have work to do! I can’t wait to see all those epic throws and trickshots done by the community.

• Knockdowns and Knockout functions are now implemented in the game. funktioner är nu implementerade i spelet.
  
• Opponent AI is improved and upgraded, so that the opponent is harder to defeat.
  
• Visuel effekcts are added with a new particle system.
  
• Audio effects are improved (not final version. Needs further improvements).
  
• Damages on opponents face and body are now visible.
  
• The Players view is affected depending on how much the Player has been hit.

We are the "Bless Unleashed PC Team" and we wanted to inform you that the server maintenance has been completed. You can now log in to the game as usual. We appreciate your patience during this time.

Here are the details of the maintenance update:

1. Adjusted pet attributes to be bound to account, resolving the issue of inability to transfer to account storage.

Thank you for your understanding and support. If you encounter any issues in the game, please don't hesitate to contact us.
