- Future of Heavenly Acres - Stapleton - 4 February 2025
Hey everyone, Stapleton here. Recently all the De'Vine games came under a new publisher called DPSII. This includes a team of a few individuals that really want to see small games succeed. This little venture has really sparked a fire under my *** Therefore, I am here to say - Heavenly Acres is not dead! I know it has been a long time since I have updated any of the De'Vine games. But upon further investigation, I have come to the conclusion it would be worth it to give each game a solid update. Especially Heavenly Acres. It has great potential, just an outdated UI system. Thus. I have been working on the UI system quite extensively. It will be sometime until I have an update ready, but it will come. Priority right now is the time sink I've been tasked to do Called Sit-Back Attack It is turning out awesome, though! You should check it out! So do not lose faith in Heavenly Acres. It will…
- A New Game called Sit-Back Attack! - 21 December 2024
Sit-Back Attack As some of you may have noticed, we have a new game in the works called Sit-Back Attack. It is an Idle RPG that has very deep character customization and challenging fights. This is the first game I have multiple languages that is being translated to. Progress on it is going good. And of course it is becoming deeper and more involved than I originally planned for it to be. I am confident it will satisfy any cravings you have in regards to Idle RPGs. It will be a one time purchase (price AROUND $10) but not settled yet. NO MICRO-TRANSACTIONS. Screw that ****. Imagine fulfilling all your Idle RPG cravings, rising to the top for a ONE TIME purchase of $10 or less! Features and such can be found on the store page. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3092260/SitBack_Attack/ FOLLOW & WISHLIST! More support it gets, the better it will become! -Stapleton

Hey! This patch addresses a few bugs reported through the discussions and discord such as: Renown converting to NaN for a brief time. It shall not do this anymore. Inquistor NPC showing a wrong choice in their social wheel. They now have the correct choice. An issue preventing the player from picking up an item they already have when their inventory slots are full. Thou shall pick up to thy hearts content! Male sheep and rabbit not producing wool. But they should now! Information tooltip bar sometimes not showing. This is addressed. Stapleton (me) is back to working on Heavenly Acres in me spare time.
