Aloha, Islanders! ๐
You've been asking for more recipes, more crafts, more buildings, and more permanent content on your islands for a long time. And we've heard you!
Today, we're excited to announce that we're officially kicking off a series of updates focused on expanding and improving the core gameplay of Sunshine Island! ๐
And this is just the beginning!
๐ ๏ธ First Up: 5 Brand-New Recipes!
Our first wave of new content is coming with next week's update, bringing five new products to existing production buildings!
Here's what's coming:
๐ Level 46 โ Bamboo Rice | Food Stand
๐งฅ Level 58 โ Quilt | Tailor
๐ช Level 67 โ Curtain | Garment Maker
๐ฅ Level 72 โ Gong | Instrument Maker
๐ Level 90 โ Hammock | Seamstress
These new recipes will give higher-level players more things to produce and new opportunities to complete valuable orders! ๐ฆโจ
๐ก What Else Are We Working On?
We know that simply adding more recipes isn't enough. We're also working on making everyday gameplay smoother and more enjoyable!
๐งต Making Bolt of Silk Easier to Produce
We know Bolt of Silk has been a frustrating production bottleneck for many players. We're working on improvements, including new, significantly cheaper Production Research levels to help you produce it more efficiently!
๐ฆ More Variety in Orders
New resources mean more variety in Plane and Floating Market orders! This should reduce the chances of getting multiple orders requesting the same specific resource, making order boards easier to complete.
๐ญ Improving Production Capacity
With next week's update, we're also increasing production stack sizes based on building levels, helping you collect more resources from longer production sessions, especially overnight!
๐พ๐ข More Content for Existing Features
Remember the Animal Shelter and Floating Market? We designed these features with future expansions in mind, and we're already working on more content to support them!
๐บ๏ธ What's Next?
This first update focuses primarily on high-level players, giving our most experienced Islanders something new to explore.
But don't worry! The following updates will focus more on mid-level players, while continuing to introduce additional content for higher levels too.
And remember: these five recipes are only the first small step in a much bigger plan! ๐ฑ
We're excited to keep expanding Sunshine Island with more permanent content, new gameplay opportunities, and improvements to existing systems.
๐ฌ Now we want to hear from YOU!
Which of the five new recipes are you most excited to unlock? And what other permanent content would you love to see in future updates?
