The Garden Path has been updated to 0.2 (Holly Berry)
Under the hood...
+ The run should run smoother on more recent hardware, especially in heavy scenes or scenes with multiple light sources.
+ Rebuilt the game's pathfinding system, which allows for faster load times and (eventually) better NPC routes.
Features...
+ Caoimhe the puffin joins the cast of travellers. They only + Malakai arrives in the Garden now too. See what he might have to say...
+ Many more flowers to grow, including Marigold, Chrysanths, Lily of the Valley, Hibiscus (available as seeds from Thom).
+ More furniture, pathing and fencing.
+ New 'Designer' system introduced, pressed the Action button while in Focus mode, then Action again, to draw plots of land. This sytem will be expanded in updated.
+ You will now start the game with a tent (old saves will recieve one free tent.)
+ Certain trees and furniture will allow you to place or hang smaller furniture on them.
+ More acres for starting garden generation.
Tweaks...
+ An item's tags are now listed next to it's type.
+ New appearance for Scots Pines.
