Are your suitcases packed? Good.

Get in loser, we're going to Chailand.

Chailand is a whole new map for Walk of Life that seeks to go a lot bigger than Calicornia. It features new locations, new game mechanics, new music, and a whole new vibe. Let's get right into it.

As you can see in the screenshot, a couple of locations from Calicornia have been split up. The first two tiers of aparments now have their own location, as well as a new landlady, which means that the grubby old misers are actually triplets, not twins!

Having the apartments located in separate locations, far away from each other, will give players a better feeling of progressing in life as they move from the slums to the fancier parts of town.

Another location that you might notice is missing is the Mall. Each of the stores has been made into a unique building: the Electronics Store, the Furniture Store, the Clothing Store, and the Pet Store. This allows us to give players jobs within each and every one of them (with new job perks!), as well as enlargen the map to better capture the atmosphere of a city.

But isn't traveling in this map going to take too long? Well, say hello to Chailand's public transportation system: The Metro!

There are two Metro stations in Chailand that players may use to travel quickly from one end of the map to the other. These aren't free, however, and you'll have to pick up passes from various locations in order to use the Metro.

Finally, there seems to be another new location on the map, which we'll get into in the next blog. Can you spot it?

We're super thankful for the reviews we have gotten from our community and would really appreciate one if you haven't given us one already - it really helps smaller developers like us!

That's it for now, see you next week!

Hello!

We see you've noticed the updates to our Steam Page. Here's the wonderful artwork that will serve as the new key art for the game, featuring all the roles that will be playable on launch:

Isn't it lovely?

Now, on to what we're working on. Fishing has been in a pretty sorry state for a while, mostly being picked up for the fishing frenzy event, or by people who just really want to go fishing. We want the system to have a bit more depth to it, so we'll be adding some fun new toys.

With the next update, you'll find two new fishing rods available next to the regular one at Moo Moo Mart: The Master Fishing Rod and the Magnet Rod. How exciting! These rods are not only more expensive than the regular fishing rod, but are also not available at the beginning of the game, as they require education to use!

But that's not all, the education isn't available from the get-go either! To access the education, you'll have to do a little bit of fishing to acquire the necessary credentials, as both education paths will require you to fish up specific items before you can start studying.

So is it worth going through all these hoops to get these improved fishing rods? We'd like to think so! The Master Fishing Rod will allow you to fish up Fishing Frenzy fish at any point in the game, even outside the Fishing Frenzy event!

The Magnet Rod, however, won't land you any fish, but will dredge up metals and other junk of varying rarity, allowing anybody to become a pseudo-scavenger!

Finally, you'll also be able to buy Fish Bait at Moo Moo Mart that consumes after the next fishing action, but will increase your chances of landing rare fish!

We added scoring to Fishing in a recent update, so hopefully all these new toys might open up fun new strategies for you to explore!

While we're on the topic of fishing, we'd reel-y appreciate it if you could drop us a Steam review, as it's super important for smaller developers like us! Thanks, and happy fishing!
