April 2022 Playtest Update New item and Energy rework!
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)
