We’ve added organic districts to Thveit 🏡 As your town grows, districts naturally emerge and divide your settlement into distinct areas, making it easier to understand your town’s layout at a glance. More ways to shape and control your districts are coming later. #gamedev #indiedev

See how your settlement flows 👀 New supply lines let you plan production buildings with more precision, identify bottlenecks, and optimize your layout. Optional in build mode. #gamedev #indiedev

We're happy to finally share our in-game Bestiary! 📖 Handcrafted and animated, with information on the creatures, animals, spirits and Gods you'll encounter throughout Thveit. There's a lot more to discover! #gamedev #indiedev

Added Depth of Field and gave Thveit another lighting pass ✨ We wanted to push the storybook feeling even further, with the goal that no matter where you point the camera, the world feels like a painting. #gamedev #indiedev

Farms are now easier to plan and manage ✨ We added a new grid overlay shader with a subtle pulse effect and Norse-inspired details, making it feel more organic while helping you line up farms, gardens, beehives and more. #gamedev #indiedev

Shipbuilding is coming to Thveit! ⚓ Before setting out on long voyages, you'll need to build your own ships. Customize them with different sails, figureheads, tails and emblems, while choosing variants with different capacities and storage. #gamedev #indiedev

Inside the lives of Thveit's settlers and animals 🧑‍🌾🐑 You can follow individual settlers around, inspect their cards, see their needs and preferences, and learn how to accommodate them. Keeping everyone happy is a job itself. #gamedev #indiedev

A glimpse into autumn in Thveit 🍂 Prepare for winter by growing rye, building your farms and windmills, and turning your harvest into flour and bread. Also featuring settler stats, UI, and the little details that bring Thveit to life. #gamedev #indiedev

Iterating on our graveyard system 🪦 We replaced the wooden fences with low stone walls and added dynamic flowers that bloom as graves are cared for. Thanks to your feedback, too! #gamedev #indiedev

Once again; when your settlers pass away, they'll be buried here, and the living will visit and tend to their graves. Some of the deceased may return as peaceful spirits, while others could come back as malevolent ghosts 👻 This is the idea we are going with as we don't want it to be simply "yet another system" :) Wishlist Thveit on Steam!

Early showcase of our graveyard system 🪦 Whether your settlers meet a noble end or a tragic one, they'll be buried here. Other settlers will visit and tend to their graves. Some may even return as ghosts or wandering spirits. #gamedev #indiedev

Next up we're thinking of replacing the wooden fences with low stone walls and adding dynamic flowers that appear as graves are tended by your settlers.
