Version 1.8 (now on experimental) adds a new Boon choice step, at the start of each village!
This spices up early game, trying to make each village more unique from the start! New boons favour fishing, harvesting, and making many Pips!
Just got sent this by a player, love how the achievements already tell you a lot about the story! Congratulations!
