Hello babies, daddies and plastic bags

The April update has been released!

The April Update has just been released 🎉 including a new item and a energy rework. Now you can finally end your days with your head comfortably in your favorite plastic bag.

Read the full Patch notes here:
  • New Item: Plastic Bag - Don’t let babies play with plastic bags!

Energy Rework: Our goal with this update is to make Energy feel more like a “resource”. Players will want to take advantage of energy giving items like soda, fruit and water to allow for maximum energy usage.

  • Energy is now used slower when running & jumping, but also recharges slower

  • 10 energy loss for feeding a healthy item and 30 energy loss for feeding an unhealthy item (the logic here is that it take a lot less energy to feed a baby some fruit, than to feed a baby a handheld vacuum)

  • Health no longer affects energy recharge rate

  • 10 energy lost for stealing an item from baby (they have a stronger grip than you think)

  • Energy recharge at same rate whether walking/standing (so if not running)

Seeding & Tree Daddy

  • Seedling Shout energy cost reduced from 40 to 20

  • Daddy Tree Form energy cost reduced to 50 (from 75)

  • Daddy Tree Form now rapidly recharges energy and heals the daddy

  • The player now receives 10x times energy regen when on a sugar rush

  • If there are multiple sugar rush buffs, The Sugar crash buff is not given until the last one expires

  • Players can now walk in sugar rush, to take advantage of the energy regen

Sugar Crash (Consequence for consuming sugar)

  • Debuff now lasts 30 seconds (previously 10)

  • The player loses 50% of their current energy

Hydrated Buff (Rewarded from drinking a water bottle)
