Not only have we implemented quests, we’ve also added several quality of life improvements and further fleshed out Stonescript, Stone Story’s in-game scripting language. The creative possibilities have continued to expand and become more robust; we can’t wait to see how you play! We are currently in the polishing and bug-fixing phase for both technical and content features. Quest implementation has brought up some interesting challenges; for every 1 issue we address, 8 more pop up! The team has been dutifully plugging away at cleanup to ensure that your playtime will be as smooth as possible. Take a look below at some of the things we’ve got planned for the Quest Update: [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//30519309/063afbed9227f9afd1af92405036654e429b23e3.gif[/img] [h3][i]A former member of the Council of Five, Uulaa now spends her days lounging and looking after her children.
