[b][i]Hi everyone! We have an update on the progress and approximate release date for the game![/i] [h3]Innovations:[/h3][/b] [list][*] [u]Map[/u] Many people said it would be handy to add a map. Shinehill Island is not that big, so we originally wanted to limit ourselves to just signposts, but we decided to add a map as well. In addition, it's much more convenient to see if any of the villagers have quests. [*] [u]Added character level[/u] Previously, the player could develop his character and increase his skills only by buying potions to increase parameters. Now the player gets experience for almost all his actions and increasing the level gets a skill point, which can be distributed in any of the parameters. You can do your favorite fishing or farming, but at the same time become very strong! [*] [u]The main plot is finished[/u] The main plot is finally finished! We've been thinking for a long time about exactly how we want this story to end and have finally come to a decision.

[*] New emotions in dialog images of NPCs [*] Farm repair [*] Music and soundtrack for everything [*] Menu refinement [/list] [h3][b]About the release date:[/b][/h3] We were planning to go into early access at the end of July. But at the moment we think we need to refine and finalize everything more thoroughly. And then also to test and make a million more edits :) So we'd like to move the release a few months ahead! We know how much you're looking forward to the release of Shinehill, we're really, really looking forward to it too! And we just have to not let you down and deliver a quality game!
