What's Ahead For 2025!
Howdy Exofarmers! Summer is here, and we're about to take a long-awaited break from our hard work to get a proper farmer's sunburn, but before we crawl out of our little indie studio, we've got some things to share with ya! As the big update is alive and kicking, we know that many of you are having fun figuring out the new world, but some of you are probably wondering - What's coming next?
Grab a cold beverage of choice and get ready to learn some more about our thoughts and more detailed plans for 2025!🍹A bright future☀️This year so far has been a process of exploring and thinking a bit outside the box. The Shifting Gears update was the result of a massive effort to sharpen our focus on what makes the game exciting to play and to live up to the fantasy we're promising players.Since the update, we've done a bunch of hotfixes to solve issues and adjust features based on feedback. Some of these fixes include making the tornado less fond of stalking you, or making the game autosave to keep your hard-farmed progress safe. In July, we will be away for a month to rest and return with full, renewed energy to continue developing, fixing, and improving Lightyear Frontier!Hotfixes are one thing, but when can you expect the next fun update for Lightyear Frontier? We're hoping to drop another 1 to 2 updates for you in 2025! If you're curious, you can already find our updated Roadmap, which reflects some of the exciting new features to come, potential additions, and early concepts we're exploring!Let us know! 📢Some feedback we got from this update is that you felt that the new map felt a bit empty, and we agree! Making the world nine times larger than the original sure was a massive effort in a short amount of time! After the update, we've continued to polish the map in some of our hotfixes so far, and we intend to continue with this to make the world feel more alive and to deepen the planet’s mysterious past.
We're also exploring small ways to strengthen your purpose and adding more depth and meaning around farming when you provide for the neighbouring colonies in need.
As we previously mentioned, we want to involve our players earlier in our game meching process and hear your thoughts and opinions on what is important to you. Therefore, we've prepped a survey for you!👇This 2-minute survey will provide us with invaluable information we want from our community, including those of you who are about to join us!
Let us know what you think! ➡️Lightyear Frontier Roadmap Survey⬅️A Little Teaser 👀Use your powerful mech to pick up, carry, and throw logs, stones, and other big stuff. Carry it home to the farm and process it for lots of extra resources! This is something we're exploring, and we think this could be a fun addition to the gathering aspect of the game! What do you think?Tossing logs like Swedish Kubb? Yes, thank you!Don’t forget to rest your boots and soak up some sun! Have a nice summer! ☀️⛱️// The FRAME BREAK team
