• Somerholm 1.3.0 Update - 11 January 2025

  This is update 1.3.0 and comes with a good few changes and additions to help fill out our simple world. More Unique Story Islands To kick things off for this update we have expanded upon all of the story islands by adding custom hand placed items and unique environments around where the story marker flags can be found. As a small measure we also added a few custom island names for islands with unique/funny seed numbers. Music To My Ears We also decided to expand upon the music player for this update to make it more versatile. The music player now opens up with the journal as well as on the pause menu, the music volume can be more directly controlled, and custom music can now be imported with a new folder in the game location. Vending Machine Goodies A new shop purchase has been added in the form of a reusable vending machine. This vending machine will be placed near the player spawn on…

• Somerholm 1.2.0 Update - 2 July 2023

  This is update 1.2.0 and we have been at work on some things, kinda, well sort of, definitely not busy playing Zelda. Particle Effects Galore To kick things off with this update we have added/extended a wide number of particle effects in the game, including but not limited to: a player trail (visible both in-game and on the map), extended walking effects, replaced wind effects, new breathing effects when it's cold out, semi-random whirlpools to the water, new water splashes, and last but not least a variety of uncommon insects. Time And Weather Extension More times of day have been added for further variation and time of day colors have been made more consistent. Wind effects have also been changed so that the player is "pushed around" by wind a bit more. To accompany weather, seasons, and times of day we also added a basic temperature system to monitor how hot/cold the player currently…

• Somerholm 1.1.0 Update - 28 March 2023

  This is update 1.1.0 and we have added/changed some pretty large things since launch. Several New Shop Items To kick things off for our first major update, we have expanded the in-game shop with four new items to purchase. These items range from cosmetic additions for the dog, to new modes of travel, to upgrades for the fishing mini-game. We hope these new additions add some extra variety to exploring the isles. Added Anomalies Speaking of more variety, we have also added several anomalies that can be randomly found when exploring. These anomalies will spawn roughly around points of interest or animals and can have a variety of different effects when approached. In addition, these anomalies will become more persistent the further the story has progressed, just like some already existing secrets. Expanded Fishing Mini-Game We have also added to and changed some aspects about the fishing…

• Somerholm Is Out Now! - 25 February 2023

  This is update 1.0.0 and we have added quite a few things since the last update. Added The Story In Full With the past few updates we have been adding support for the story content and with this update all of it is finally implemented. The story is not necessary to go through by any means but can be found along-side randomly exploring islands. In addition to the notes that can be found, there is an additional post-story unlock for completing everything. Added Oddities To expand on the hand-made content a bit in this randomly generated game, we have added new Points Of Interest that are unmarked on the map and much more rare than standard points. There are only a few different types of these for the time being, but they should provide a bit of variety while exploring and taking photos. Added New Points Of Interest In addition to adding oddities, we have also expanded on the amount of mar…

• Somerholm 0.9.5 Update - 16 January 2023

  This one is more of a technical update than anything else, but we still had some additions and changes to show off! Previously Visited Islands Are Now Tracked To kick things off this time, all islands that the player visits are now tracked. When a player re-visits an old island the map information, POI, and animal discoveries will be automatically filled out for them. This does not apply to custom created islands, but we thought it would be a neat mechanic and helps encourage people to visit new islands instead of farming old ones for money or stat improvements. Added Achievements Coming up on release there are a few key things we needed to include and achievements were one of them. There are a total of 20 to be had and they can all be tracked in the journal. Added Key Rebinding Another pretty necessary feature to include before release would be key rebinding. With the last update we na…

• Somerholm 0.9.0 Update - 12 December 2022

  We are still hard at work on our next game and have a new devlog highlighting some of the biggest additions and changes we have included! Added A Seasons System A fairly large visual change we have made is the introduction of seasons to Somerholm. With the turn of different seasons, vegetation, weather, animals, and overall color-tone will change. The "default" look the game had before this addition is marked as Summer. Spring will feature a more blue overall tone, flowers, guaranteed berries in bushes, and less overall wind. Autumn will have slightly less of a grass-line near the water, more of a grey overall tone, orange-brown grass and trees, less smaller vegetation and some dead trees. Winter has the largest amount of changes, with even less of a grass-line neat water, a more grey overall tone, brown grass, more dead trees, the least amount of vegetation, and the least amount of ani…

• Somerholm 0.8.5 Update - 11 November 2022

  We are still hard at work on our next game and have a new devlog highlighting some of the biggest additions and changes we have included! Just like last time, there is no new playable version out, but we still wanted to let everyone know how development is going so far. Going forward there probably won't be a new release of the game until launch date (hopefully early 2023). Replaced And Expanded Vegetation Kicking things off this time, we have replaced all of the previous tree models and added new tree types. The new tree models and variations should add a good amount of variety while exploring different islands. We also added a second type of mushroom that can be found, re-worked the model and variation of reeds, and added fallen over tree logs and barren tree stumps. Added A Shop System We hinted at the stats system and progression with the last update, and we are now happy to show it…

• Somerholm 0.8.0 Update - 11 October 2022

  We have been working on our next game for a bit, and while we don't have a new playable version, we do have an announcement for some features we have been working on! We know that any news could have come a bit sooner, we've just been busy. In any case we hope you enjoy what we have to show off today. Added A New Journal System To start things off for this update we added a new journal system. This journal will incorporate the map, island info, and photos onto the same screen, as well as include the new stats menu. The map is now a bit smaller, but has 3 levels of distance and includes icons for discovered locations. The island info is also changed a bit, now showing a brief description for each of the island modifiers instead of just the raw info. Finally the new stats menu includes a breakdown of various player stats as well as a brief progress stat for each (we will show off more of…
