Coding is coming along well, art is one of the big next steps. I'm working hard and researching how each of these crops look and grow.
Here's a peak at the new radish and cabbage crops! The cabbage is still in development but it's going well!
The plan for the mechanics of Cryptid Farm is to have a shop that opens every now and again which sells single use seeds for a whole range of crops. All of the crops are better than the default carrot, but you'll have limited supply. Players will have to quickly run to the shop, choose between 2 crops and then grow their crops fast to avoid them from being stolen by other players or the snatcher. I'm excited to see how players will react to it!
One of the big parts of coding this was the new seed manager system and inventory system. It took a while to figure out but it's on a good path right now.
Thanks for reading this dev update!
