--Planned features: --processor-friendly animal and plant "ecology" simulation. Deer eat grass, grass regrows. Next, wolves eat deer, deer breed and pass on features to young. Some pretty simple rules could create a lot of fun variety in the game world! --Crafting of all kinds of items in the spirit of Sammi Marannen's Unreal World and Minecraft and Terraria etc. --Agriculture and animal husbandry with a balance of realism and fun playability.

--Current Features: --Game is Pre-Alpha, expect crashes. --Sleepiness, Sickness, Hunger, Thirst up and running! Lamps and torches that work properly at your start location (except for bullseye lantern) --Deer that herd and sometimes individuals become stragglers... --pickup and equip a bow and fire an arrow to kill a deer, use a knife on the corpse to acquire meat. --Due to a new flurry of recent programming, many minor features are being rewritten so expect some new behavior as some code is years+ old.
