Fern 0.12 – every biome at its best

Fern 0.12 – every biome at its best

• Each biome at its finest hour – the biomes ahead are planned from your pace and the time of day, so the cherry valley tends to greet you at dawn, the golden birch slopes in the golden hour, the glowing, mushroom and fern woods at night and the sunset coast at dusk. Never always – every biome keeps coming, in a new order.
• The clock bends a little so the moment lasts: a long golden hour on the golden slopes, a longer night in the glowing woods.
• Weather that fits – the deadwood bog mostly in the rain, the giants' old forest in fog, the golden and night biomes under a clear sky.
• New time setting "Each biome at its best" – no running clock; the hour follows the trail and moves on at every border (golden hour → dusk → night → dawn).
• A cleaner, cuter scout – bigger eyes, a softer shape, less clutter. Its feet now really stay on the ground: a stroll, a brisk trot and a bounding sprint that always match the speed, arms that swing and pump, sneaking on tiptoes, a little "whoa" when stopping, new idle gestures.
• The title screen shows the first biome at its best hour.
