The beta has been online for nearly a month now and a lot of changes have been made already to increase the games experience! For this round a lot of values have been updated again. The changes are mainly devoted towards the cooking mechanics:

  • Recipe Book: There is now a recipe book in the game! It will collect all recipes that you successfully followed. The recipe book can be found under Game -> Cooking -> Recipe Book. A list of all recipes in the game can be found here.

  • Cooking Improvements: The three main cooking types Brewing, Baking and Refining are now visually distincted with colors to avoid confusion. The recipes are also organized in recipe groups now (Stew, Powder etc.).

  • Evobar Requirements: On the pixpet haord page, it is now displayed which evobar is needed to evolve a pixpet. The minimum grade required is also displayed.

  • Pumpkin Growth: The pumpkin growth interval has been reduced from 6 hours to 4 hours. Watering intervals stay the same. This will only affect newly planted pumpkins.

  • Plant Growth: The plant growth interval has been halfed for every potted plant!. Watering intervals stay the same. This will only affect newly planted plants.

  • Rarity Adjustment: The rarity for Seeds, Fertilizers, Special Ingredients and Potion/Evobar Ingredients has been adjusted to match the demand better.

  • Hoard Adjustment: The base probability to find items and pixcoins on hoards has been increased. The chance for higher pixcoin findings (especially on higher pet levels) has been tripled.

  • Plant Pot Limit: The limit on how many plant pots can be placed has been increased by +1 for every type of house. The chance to find plant pots on hoards has been increased likewise.

  • House Prices: The house base prices have been cut in half or decreased drastically for all house types.


Bugfixes:

  • Share Links: A bug with broken egg share links has been fixed with eggs obtained from the market. Share links for new market eggs will work now.

  • Pumpkin Display: A bug with displaying pumpkins on multiple garden slots on the house grid has been fixed.



I hope to increase the games experience with those changes!
Planned/Upcoming Features:

Egg Hatch Helper: Public visitors can help placed eggs hatch faster.
Grade Averager: To match requirements for cooking better, a grade averager will be implemented to average out item grades. (Example: Create 2 grade 50 items out of one grade 0 and one grade 100 item of the same kind)

Have fun playing and thank you for the supports/bug reports!
