DetailsOnly a few new beta updates for A Valley Without Wind this week, but they add and/or improve upon quite a vast amount of stuff. So much in fact, that we’re already gearing up for 1.2 official sometime in the first part of July. If you’re wondering how we got from 1.1 to 1.2 this…

DetailsThis one is pretty much a bugfix and slight polish version. If things look solid here, then we’ll do a hotfix official version tomorrow — so let us know if you see any problems or if everything looks okay! Internally we’ve been mapping out what we’re going to do for 1.2, and work on that…
