Lou’s Lagoon – Ver. 1.1.0

• Release date: TBA
• Patch notes (highlights):

• 🐝 Shorter crafting and drone delivery times: Crafting times, as well as the drone delivery times have been reduced. We initially imagined crafting to be something that happens in the background while you go on in your adventures and visit other islands. We see now that that’s simply not the way Lou’s Lagoon is being played, and that shorter crafting times enable you to fulfill your current quests more smoothly. We’re very eager to hear from you whether crafting feels better now!
• 🛩️Expanded Plane Storage: The plane storage has been upped from 12 to 20 slots, and it can be accessed from anywhere on the islands. We hope that this is an effective quick fix for your storage concerns. At the same time, as pointed out in our previous post, this might be subject to changes in the future when the silos, the “real” alternative, arrive.
• 🧰Improved guidance towards treasure chests: We improved guidance towards treasure chests on all islands. If you haven’t found all of them yet, maybe now’s the time! This change is less about simply making it “easier” to find the chests, but rather about doing a better job highlighting the special spots where rewards are waiting.
