Hello Islanders, how are you today? 🏝️
It's been a while since we talked about the diary! 📖
Transparency and communication are our daily dev diary and blog post goals.
We redact some stuff because we didn't want to spoil too much for players, as the game is still in development.
And aside from giving a peek at our progress, we also don't want to give false hope.
As some Alpha players know firsthand, sometimes stuff gets reworked or eradicated.
On top of what is shown in diary, we work on many other things that often don't make the cut.
So we want to avoid claiming it and getting the players excited for it to fail the balance test or whatever implementation process we have.

Some of you may wonder why the devs are no longer on the member list.
We purposely hid it because irresponsible people harassed some of them by DM regarding the game. 😮‍💨
That's why you don't need to worry, as the devs are still here watching all the bugs & crash reports, also your excitement while playing the game. We're just better at hiding ourselves in the shadows. 👀

Hello Islanders 🏝️
Update for Early Access Testing branch save file issue.
To clarify, the save file you opened in the Early Access Testing branch is the same version as the main 1.0 branch, which is why the save reset (New Game Plus) didn't trigger.
Unfortunately, we never meant for the Early Access Testing branch to be maintained, and the purpose is only for players to check in on the farms they created during Early Access thus, we cannot support this issue 🙏
Thank you for your understanding.

Good timezone, Islanders! How are you today? 🏝️
We’ve got a long list of bug fixings for you, hip hip, hurray! 🎉
We know you might find some old bugs, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t fix them. Sometimes, when we add new lines of code, it can unexpectedly break old code and bring back old bugs, even though we try to prevent it. But that’s coding for you! We’re still doing our best. Just report any bugs you find as usual.

Hello Islanders! 🏝️
Been seeing some of you asking how to catch certain bugs or fish here in the Discord. Legend has it that this Discord holds a special power for granting those wishes, especially when it comes to bug and fish encounters! We’re thinking the Goddess’s Blessing extends into this server too, lol 🧚‍♀️✨
What’s your most memorable catch or discovery in Coral Island?
Mine has to be the Luna Moth. The first time I caught it, the name just stuck in my head!

G'day, Islanders! 🏝️
This morning I was trying to remember the exact moment I first fell head over heels for Leah. I remember, I was just running around town introducing myself to everyone, then I saw her, reading. She looked up and called me cute in my little farming outfit… sarcastically, of course. But I was like, yup, you’re my girl 😂

How about you? Was there a special moment that made you fall for one of our romanceable characters and never look back? I’m a sucker for love stories, so tell me all about it in #🐔coral-general ! 💞

Hi hi, Islanders!
Question for all of you when you’re designing your farm, what’s the first thing you always do? Do you start with a theme or aesthetic in mind? Plot out which area goes where? Or do you just go full improv and vibe it out?
I’ve been trying to redesign my farm lately and let me tell you… my brain’s just going bzzzzzz with all the possibilities 😵‍💫
Would love your advice!

P.S. Take your time designing, farmer! There’s no rush on the island 💚

Hello Islandeeers!
More exciting redacteds are sighted! But most importantly, we managed to convince Wakuu not to wander to the Giants village at night agaiin!🥹 🙌
Have you encountered Wakuu wandering around at night before? What will you say to him to convince him to stay home at night?🤔

PS: We got some question about the trailer yesterday, Yes! It does say it is available now when it isn't. It's because the trailer we submitted for the Southeast Asian Games Showcase was actually a shortened version of Coral Island’s release trailer!
We originally prepared the full trailer to go live with the 1.2 update, but we forgot to adjust the script for the event version. Sorry about the confusion and stay tuned!

Hi Islanders!
I saw this discussion and now I'm curious too!
How do you divide your farm for crops, ranch animals, artisan machines, cute and cool decor spots?
Do you prefer smaller crops field and the rest is just beautifully decorated area?
Or are you a farmer through and through, crops is love crops is life?
