Morels: The Hunt – Update and New Trailers

[We are excited to announce that we have just made an update to Morels: The Hunt and it is live now. The new Speed Hunt Mode was not quite ready for release yet so that is not in this update. However, since there were a couple of important bug fixes we wanted to go ahead and get this update out now. We know the Single Season Achievement bug has been an annoying one. We believe this should now be fixed. We hope to release the new Speed Hunt Mode in the next update.

You can view everything about the update Morels Update Information.

To go along with the update we have uploaded some new trailers for the game. You can view the trailers below.

A big thank you to everyone who has played the game. We just released our Creator Mode update for Morels: Homestead on the Quest 2.
 
CREATOR MODE: In this mode you will start out your game with $1,000,000. This will allow you to completely focus on building your homestead right away. This mode is for anyone who would like to just focus on building their homestead without having to do things in the game to earn money like forage, harvest crops, metal detect, and take on quests.
 
ACTIVATING CREATOR MODE: You can active Creator Mode by starting a new game and then right after the beginning homestead previews it will ask you if you would like to start your game in Normal Mode or Creator Mode.
TIME CHANGE ITEM: We have a new item that can be purchased at the Misc Vendor under the Misc category. This new Time Change item will allow you to change from Day/Night in an instant. This will be helpful for anyone doing quests or looking for items or creatures that can only be found or completed at certain times of the day.
 
TUTORIAL SKIP BUTTON: We have added a Skip button to the beginning tutorial panels. If you have already played the game and done the tutorials and are just wanting to start a new game, you can now skip through the tutorials if you like.
 
OTHER SMALL FIXES: There are a handful of other small fixes as well like the Grizzly Bear Quest and the Walking Skeleton Quest.
 
We hope you enjoy the update! Please reach out to us at support@morelshomestead.com if you have any issues, questions, or suggestions. Be sure to check your junk mail for replies.
