Hello all!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the demo during Steam next fest. The demo will be up until the 20th when the game releases.

I wanted to use this thread to discuss the plan for post-release. I am currently working on adding suggestions and implementing quality of life updates, as well as thinking of new skills and more content!

Release - What to Expect

With the release around the corner, here is what you can expect!

• More sounds
• All skills having a level cap of 50
• More content for each skill. All items past level 30 are now unlocked.
• More workers!
• Achievements

Future Updates

So what is the plan after? I am currently combining a big list of feedback and suggestions. Here's a few things that you can expect to see in Idle Fields

• Better construction. This means the ability to move items, change out wallpaper, floor, more plants, more furniture, skill trophies, and functionality for some placed items!
• New skills! Skills are the core part of Idle Fields and I definitely want to add more. There are 2 skills that are planned for one of the first game updates.
• Cross-skill interactions. I want skills to interact with each other. This could be construction allowing you to build a better cooking range or cooked items giving workers a boost. Any ideas would be great for this!
• Mini-games. This is a core part of the game that I know I want to add. Fishing will be the first skill to have a mini-game added. The idea is to populate the world with more things to do
• Add ways to train skills whilst idle without workers. Fishing is a prime example. You start, go afk, and that's it!
• Offline progression? I am still considering this as I am not sure if this is what people want. If you want this, please let me know! The more answers, the better.
• World improvements. I just want to add more to worlds, even if it is visual additions.
• Skill upgrades. Currently, the only upgrades are workers. I want to introduce more ways to upgrade skills.
• A better tutorial. It's as simple as that. I don't feel like the tutorial covers everything that it should and I plan to revisit it.

If this sounds good to you, great! If you have played the demo are you weren't the biggest fan, that's also okay!



Thank you,
