https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2412960/view/576022713144967358Greetings! Yes, yes, yes — we overslept and forgot to post the news about the news. If you also happened to oversleep (just like us), there’s a handy little link over there to our latest big Breathedge 2 update — with even a few words about Canyons. Lots of words, actually. Complicated ones. So if you’re not afraid of a little challenge — happy reading! And if you are afraid — happy reading anyway.

Hello everyone! This is the Astra Village development team. 👩‍🌾✨

This time, we’d like to share updates related to the fields.

Please note that this content is still in development and may differ in the final release.

This is the first season you’ll encounter in the game.

Cherry trees bloom and small flowers are placed around the area.

It’s a season of lush greenery.

Summer brings even more vivid greens.

Oak trees appear, and you can see long grasses swaying in the wind.

When autumn arrives, the colors shift and the surroundings begin to turn red.

Ginkgo trees start to appear, with autumn leaves scattered all around.

Winter is the season of snowfall.

Pine trees are blanketed with snow, and the landscape turns white.

Our goal is to let players enjoy these seasonal transitions,

and to build a farming simulation where crop varieties also change with the seasons.

Also, Astra Village is now live on Steam and Discord! We’d be thrilled if you could add it to your wishlist and follow us. The Demo version is also available, so please give it a try! ❣

A big congratulations to all the winners! As you can see, Jack has created a floor setting for each level to snap together on the main menu, making your levels a part of a grand exhibition! If all goes to plan, this floor will be tied to the "Hide unused voxels" Setting, so you can choose to play the winners with or without the added floor.

We will also be adding textures and particle effects as requested, such as making any glass transparent and making that jelly wobble! If you are one of the winners and have any bespoke particle effect or material requests, please let us know!

This community-made world will be coming soon to all players as a free update for you all to play! Thank you to everyone who submitted. The results are amazing. Make sure you express your interest about future community worlds if you want the chance to get your own art into Coloring Voxels and we'll be able to plan future, annual competitions!

Thank you once again for taking part, keep an eye out for the update coming soon.tm!

- Stay Toastie, from all of us here at ToastieLabs!

Well, well, well. What can I say? The wait, you’ll find it was definitely worth it. Today I have an absolutely monstrous update for the Samara lovers out there. Wet Nightmares beta version 4.01, this update is the full chapter 3 experience completely blocked out, and this is something you can experience right now on the brand new beta branch for Wet Nightmares! You can enable this via the game properties, it will download a whole new game and will ONLY be Chapter 3. It will not have any nice menus or support your old saves, but you can see everything from the start to the end of the chapter.

Why beta branch? Well simply because this build is a chapter blocking build. Blocking is when the majority of the game is using sketches and basic drawings to “block out” the timing and scene changes needed. It will also give Erkerut a laundry list of art he needs to complete if the blocking build is accepted without any changes.

Take a look at the example of what the blocking art will look like vs. the full complete art. The full Chapter 3 has 285 hand-drawn images with 92 of those images in a “final quality” state (though you won’t see those in the game currently). There is a lot of animations in there as well, new audio effects for Samara, new music tracks, and a boatload of spoops and scares.

Narrative-wise the chapter is completely done—as you’ll experience in the build if you play it—currently it only supports English for now, but the entire chapter is over 24,000 words long. That is the combined size of chapters 1 and 2! Meaning with the addition of chapter 3, we have now doubled the length of the game. There are some spelling, grammar, and formatting issues that need to be addressed as well, but know that we already know about them.

So please, enjoy this look into the development of chapter 3. If you do muster up the courage to play it, which would effectively spoil the chapter for yourself, you’ll have an excellent idea why it has taken us so long to get it all together.

The next steps for the game will be that the programming team will integrate the blocking into the main game, and Erkerut will move onto the task of doing each of the 300ish hand-drawn art panels for the game.
