As this year comes to a close, it’s a great time to reflect on our past and give thanks. This year was an exciting one for us! We released a major update for our first baby, Roots of Pacha, and also began work on a second game. We’re still early on in this process, but we’ll certainly send a smoke signal when our Idea is ready to share. Thank you all for joining us on this journey. That has been the greatest gift of all. We wish you all a fantastic Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!(Spoiler warning for those that haven’t finished the main story) 👇May this season of giving remind us all to t

This patch addresses a security vulnerability discovered by Unity, our chosen game engine, so we wanted to fix that as soon as possible. We also have a small patch on the horizon that addresses some bugs and QoL things. Thank you, as always, for being such an awesome community. You rock! 🥰

Feats Performance improvements (most noticeable on Switch). Amphitheatre now shows two songs obtained by gifts on the list, so it's clear what's missing for the achievement. Fixes Recipes that used Wild Rice, Wild Lentils, and Wild Rye, now accept their non-wild versions. Light decorations not showing fire inside the house upon loading. Some dialogue and localization errors. Krak sleeping position in Yakuan Islands. Happy playing!

Fixes Cursor gets stuck in the bug catching minigame when going outside bounds using a controller. Seeds in the Sun & Moon caves have max knowledge when they should start at level 3. Steam achievement "Green Hand" triggering after picking up any seed (related to above). Gift dialogue errors. Feats & Changes Expanded seed bag slots to 56 to be able to assign all seeds. Canoes idea now accepts aquatic animal tag instead of only fish. Bug groups will merge if they're visually very close to each other. Dodo rare variants spawn days changed to the same as the Junglefowl. Thank you for playing 🥰

Roots of Pacha is basically like a Stone Age version of Stardew Valley, a co-op farming and life sim from Sofa Den. The Sun and Moon update is a big one and it's out now.

We’ve come a long way since first releasing Roots of Pacha almost exactly two years ago. We are so grateful to have such a positive community that has supported us along the way, so thank you! The 1.3 Update is filled with mid to late game content, so there is no need to start over, that is, unless you want to. So! What’s in the 1.3 update, you might ask? Spoilers beware! After you complete the last challenge in the Forest Caves, Inza and Zeda will invite you to their respective lands, kicking off access to the new content. Then, once you complete the main story, centered around the Jungle Pyr
