Word From the Devs: Yeah, That’s A Drawbridge
Hello vikings!We began this month of April, as is customary, with a bit of a laugh. Most of you caught on to the fact that it was an April Fools joke, but we do want to make sure to clarify that there is not going to be an additional game mode in Valheim where you can romance all the bosses, as fun as that might have been. Who had the most charming dialogue options? Who had the most romantic ending? We shall never know.We also want to thank the team behind Val-Con for organising their event for the second time! Thank you for taking the time to bring the community together and celebrating Valheim! Our very own Robin Eyre and Jonathan Smårs featured during the event, as well as some of our friends from other companies who have helped us make the game, so make sure to check out their interviews in the VOD.But now, onto some teasers! Last month we asked if you had any guesses as to what one might be able to cook in the Deep North, and many of you guessed it: Meatballs with lingonberries, of course! They’re just one item on the menu of this biome though, because you’ll need plenty of food to sustain yourselves through adventures out in the cold:We’ve already hinted at some build pieces that will be coming to Valheim, but now we want to reveal perhaps one of the most impressive pieces yet. You have asked for a drawbridge for quite some time, and we are happy to finally be able to offer you one. Let the building commence!Build of the MonthSpeaking of building, this month we would like to shine some light upon this swamp village by RegretfulDesire! So many nice little details!If you want your creation to be featured in this section, use the hashtag #ValheimBotM on social media.
