Hey there Hedgehogs,

I am excited to announce version 0.4.0-experimental! This update features new and improved artwork for the Village room and many other additions such as a brand new shop UI and market stalls!

Across from the cafe, there is now a beautiful creek! Yes, we finally have a creek!! The wonderful construction hedgehogs have helped construct a lovely little wooden bridge across the creek, which leads you to a market stall area. This is where you will find Mr Prickles and Hazel selling their wares, such as clothing items and furniture!

In addition to all the improved visuals I've also added a new custom-made soundtrack which hopefully is more fitting with the visuals. Thank you to Oviivo for your help! The new music has a calming, cheerful and upbeat melody which I hope you will like!

Many of you have asked since the festive party about having the ability to locate your friends in the world. Now you can easily find your friends and even who's house they might be in. No more room jumping to find where your friends are! Click the question mark button on the friend list profile to find them.

The day/night cycle also sees some improvements. It will now turn on by default if you are on a desktop device. Mobile and tablet players can toggle it on or off in the settings menu by clicking "Lighting". You will notice smoother transitions with the lights and from day to night. See the animated video below.

For those eagle eyed hedgehogs you will notice that Supporter Tiers now have more vibrant name tags in the world.

Lastly you will notice there is now a chat indicator bubble. This makes typing a little bit more interactive to see who is typing in the world. Let me know what you think!

I hope you enjoy this update! It sure has been fun drawing up the new Village room.

See the full changelog for all the details.

Stay spiky!
