To start with, we’ll be adding two new crafting mechanisms: benches and machines. The benches will require your time for crafting, while the machines will be able to craft in the background as you go about your day.
There will be two initial benches: the cooking bench and the carpentry bench. Right now you can cook food at the cooking bench and process materials and build machines at the carpentry bench.
In each bench you will find recipes according to 5 different badge levels: novice, apprentice, adept, expert, master. The more you craft recipes from a lower level, the more experience you will gain to reach the next badge level. Some recipes will come with the benches themselves, while some will need to be purchased or found.
Default cooking bench recipes will be: Toast (novice), Trail Mix (novice), Peeled Grapes (novice), Boiled Egg (apprentice), Cheese and Crackers (apprentice), and Bread (apprentice).
Default carpentry bench recipes will be: Composter (novice), Carpentry Bench (apprentice), Oak Barrel (apprentice), Mash’n’Heater (adept), Tokenizer (adept), Tumble Temper (adept), Loom’n’Spinner (adept, Smelt’n’Form (adept), Mix’n’Still (adept), Large Oak Barrel (expert), and Giant Oak Barrel (Master).

Happy Halloween everyone! This month I finished the ent quest, although it is missing some VO which I hope to add in a mid-month update. This quest includes new high level druid armor, for people working on the later game content. A few changes were made from feedback I received from Playthrough, including a status effect timer. Detail below:

Ents and Treants have combat animations now!
Updated lanterns to have an alternate "focus" mode
Status effect timer added
Halloween pop up in the hub!

Following last weeks Unity engine update (scroll down to see recent news posts), I wanted to drop a quick note to let you know we have updated our Steam developer profile. This is the hub on Steam that shows what games me and Sarah (SquarePlay Games) have made, but also what games we will be working on in the future.
As a small indie studio its not always the easiest to gain an audience, to put it mildly, and we'd love to take you with us on our gamedev journey. Personally, I tend to enjoy making a variety of game types, but there is always a chance we will return to a genre, or make a spiritual successor or even sequel to one of our games.
So if you're interested to see what's next, click through here and have a look, and consider following us there!
Thanks!

Al and Sarah (SquarePlay Games)
The Bailey Buffet in 1904 will let you play as one of two characters, Sebastian or Victoria. Will you save yourself and your friends as strange things begin to happen on the castle grounds this late summer afternoon?
And what is that shadow that shows up but seems to be visible only to you?
Here's an ingame screenshot to show how this standalone level looks now. Stay tuned for updates! "The Bailey Buffet in 1904" is planned for release in November.



v1.0.0.5
Fixed a bug that caused issues when interacting with objects too close to the player.
