Everafter Falls Monthly dev log – December: New plants, rare animals and more.

You may not remember me but I’m Dog from Everafter Falls. The simulation is almost over. Soon, you’ll be back to the serene and peaceful existence right here in Everafter Falls. The marketing lead of Akupara Games from Earth, Buddy will give you a deeper look into the story of Everafter Falls and what you may expect once the simulation of Earth is over.

 

Everafter Falls is a lifestyle farming sim where you farm, fish, and forage a huge collection of items to make the most efficient yet cozy farm. Features split-screen coop, a pet with useful skills, automated drones, resource-harvesting pixies, a card-eating progression system, and dangerous dungeons to explore!

 

Wishlist Everafter Falls on Steam!

 

I talked with Ou, the developer of Everafter Falls about what they have been working on just to keep all of you in the loop on the biggest and best changes.

 

Dev Log December

What’s New?

Revamped Museum Collection

The Flora section of the museum has been completely revamped to include Tree Saps, Animal Produce, Flowers, and Processed Goods. A new collection book has been added which contains these new collections.

 

Rare animal designs

Available as prizes or end game unlockables, your farm wouldn’t be quite as awesome without these 🙂

 

New items and machines

Below are some new craftable machines that can be unlocked end game to help you build your dream farm, and items that have made it into the game.

 

New Flowers

Flowers are unlocked in the end game and flower farms become a possibility. Or grow a few to brighten up any location.

 

The Zorpian Tree

A rare fruit tree obtainable only through a special visit from some alien friends.

 

The Sacred Tree Area

This area is unlocked after completing the story where you can unlock some end game items and rare animal designs which are not available elsewhere. After bringing light back to the entire area, you’ll be able to decorate the place and make it your own little peaceful getaway!

 

Alien Friends Event

Unlockable after completing Cedrics Rocket Quest, you have a 3 day window to trade with the aliens for some rare items. A habit of hoarding is of much use here.

 

An example of a hoarders inventory:

 

The Infinite Dungeon Challenge

After completing the story, you’ll be able to work towards obtaining your very own simulation chair which will give you access to an infinite dungeon challenge. See how many levels you can reach, and win some exclusive items for hitting level milestones.

 

Looking ahead

The Beta version will probably have been complete by the time you are reading this.

 

I am planning to finish some outstanding additions throughout the Beta that have already been planned such as item augmentation. Along with continuing to implement feedback throughout this important stage as I continue to roll out to more testers. 

 

Implementing translations will also be a main focus in the near future, with Akupara Games helping a lot with that, in addition to the Switch port which is well underway. I’ve also started on Steam Achievements, a preview of some of them can be seen below:

In the works

I’d love to be able to work on the Cooking System, getting recipes and a functional Kitchen in the game. It has been on the cards for a while now but I have not had the chance to start it. If this feature does not make it into the game in the initial release, it is definitely something I will be working on in an update.
