Don't Starve Update A Little Rain Must Fall

Don't Starve has recently released a new major update.  This update comes to us with a ton of content and a few various bug fixes and changes made to the game.  We get rain and weather effects,  a new adventure mode and new monsters and a bunch of new items.  All around a pretty large update that looks really fun.

--copy and paste--

The latest Don't Starve update is now live and it's one of our largest to date. We hit a few snag today while Steam irons out a few issues. Please make sure to read the two important notes below.
Important Note:
Steam seems to be having some technical difficulties in sending the update to some computers. If you encounter problems, you should be able to fix them by uninstalling Don't Starve and then reinstalling it. You may have to validate files after you do this in order to force the update after that.
This should just be a temporary problem. Valve is usually pretty quick to fix these things!
Second Note:
Settings.ini has moved! If you have made changes to your settings.ini to turn off steam cloud, you will need to move them over to the new location in your mydocuments\klei\donotstarve directory.

Release Note

New features

• Rain comes during the summer to ruin your fires and dampen your spirits. Watch out for lightning strikes!
• Sandbox custom mode sliders are all unlocked. You can make the game really, really hard now.
• Pathfinding works over long distances
• Day length changes throughout seasons
• Modders can bring up an interactive lua console with the ~ key

Adventure mode

• Put in very rough sketches of the actual adventure levels. It’s very rough at this point, and the ‘story’ bits are missing, but the basic structure is in place.
• Added lots of little setpieces using new objects that try to impede your progress.

New monsters

• The Knight
• Merms
• Guardian Pigs

There's also a ton of new items in the world and things to build. Head over to our forum post to see the full release notes.

Don't Starve Insanity Update goes Live!

Don't starve has released their newest update with a ton of new features and additions. It's way to much to talk about and I'm kinda in the middle of something so I"m going to post this fast! This update looks awesome

http://www.dontstarvegame.com/blog/update-insanity

--copy and paste---

This Update: Sanity

New Character: Wes - Do you think Don’t Starve is too easy? Try playing as Wes, the mime! He’s not good at doing anything!
Sanity - The player character loses sanity when he is left alone in the dark, gets close to scary monsters, or does crazy things like eating monster meat or jumping through a wormhole. Sanity can be regained through acts of dapperness, like wearing fancy clothes in the sunshine and eating candy.
Low sanity is not fatal, but strange creatures from another time and place are attracted to madness. There are new, powerful items that can be built from the nightmare fuel that they leave behind when killed.now
Save Slots - You can have up to four save games at once now. Your existing save will be imported into the first slot when you start the game for the first time.
Sandbox Mode - This is the game as you all know it. There will eventually be a customization screen before you start a level, but you just get the default generation for now.
Experimental Adventure Mode - When you start a new game, you can choose to play in adventure (ie story) mode. Currently, there are five levels of difficulty as you progress through the levels. This is an early test, so we have a lot of work to do to make these levels meaningful and fun. We also need to add the story’s ending. This is for experienced DS players who want a taste of the future.
Pathfinding - Monsters and followers can navigate around corners and walls.
Mod Support (steam only)- Modding is now allowed! We’re distributing the the source scripts with the game, so have a look in data/scripts, and see what you can do. There is an example (machine-translated) French language pack included with the game to get you started. See the modding forum for more details.

New Craftables:

Bush Hat - Hide from your enemies in plain sight.

Night light - Light your nights with nightmare fuel.

Night Armour - Protects the flesh, but sacrifices the mind.

Night Sword - Live by the sword, go crazy by the sword.

Cobbles - Build your own roads.

Taffy + Pumpkin Cookies - New recipes! Mmmmmmm!

Jan 29th Update: Progress!

Escaping:
You can escape the world by finding... things... and doing... stuff with them. You get to keep your inventory, and you cash-out any XP that you have and unlock characters without dying. This is the first step towards story mode. The world that you escape to is no harder than the first, but this will change soon!


New Research Method:
Under the new research method, you unlock access to tiers of recipes by building research machines. You can unlock a specific recipe by building it near an active machine, after which point you can build it anywhere. Your known recipes last as long as you do - they will travel with you to new worlds if you escape, but you will lose them if you die. There are no more research points or grinding. The science machine is now a bit cheaper to make, and the alchemy engine is a bit more expensive.

This is a big change, so we’ve made it optional for the time being. When you start a new world, you will get to choose between the new research method or the old one. Your progress in the old method is not available in the new method, but will be there if you switch back. We will be phasing out the old method soon, but wanted to introduce the new one carefully.


New Character:
Wickerbottom the librarian can be unlocked with XP. She gets a bonus research tier, because she is so smart.


New Creatures:
There are baby beefalo. You can eat them, if you are a terrible person.
Disgusting worm mouths are sprinkled throughout new worlds. I dare you to click on one!
There is a new, elusive herbivore that you can hunt. He is hard to find, and harder to catch. He drops some unique loot and lots of meat.


New Craftables:
You can build three types of defensive walls (straw, wood, and stone). These can be destroyed by monsters, and repaired by you. The AI pathfinding is not done yet but will probably go in the next update, so enjoy confusing the heck out of pigmen while you can.
You can make wooden floor tiles and place them like turf.
You can make a boomerang and throw it at other creatures. Just be careful when it flies back at you!
You can build a pitchfork, which takes over turfing duties from the shovel.
You can craft a nice, comfy summer vest.


New Other Stuff:
Spider dens produce creep tiles that slow down movement. You can dig them up and place them if you like.
Added a better death effect for creatures.
Spline-based roads look better, and make you walk faster.


Balance Changes:
Every new meat effigy that you create takes a chunk of your max health. It gets returned when you die, or when you destroy the effigy.
Made “monster lasagna” recipe that shows up when you use too much monster meat in the crock pot.
Cooked / crocked foods inherit spoiledness from their ingredients (with a small bonus).
The “new world gen” is now the default. The old method will soon be deprecated.
Added a character quip when hounds are approaching.
The tent no longer swaps characters - it is now acts as a super-powerful bedroll that restores all health and hunger.
Honey nuggets and honey ham spoil a bit faster.


Misc Bug fixes:
Birds don't spawn seeds when flying away if there's already seeds nearby.
Teeth trap can be reset with Right-click.
Beard fountain doesn’t... fountain.
Teenbird and Tallbird aggression fixes.
If you die with something in your hand it will drop on the ground instead of disappearing.
Fix for missing Pig King in new world generation.
Fix for hangs in new world generation.
Massive speed up for new world generation.
Fixed bird/wilson animation freak-outs on slower machines.
Darts and poop won't magically accumulate at the world origin.
Berries won't show up in farm plots.





...And a quick, same-day stability hotfix!

• clicking retry on death doesn't crash
• maxwell pieces shouldn't get stuck on ponds
• catching a boomerang in the face won't put your followers into a rage
• fix for a crash if you have a weird settings.ini
• adjusted wall loot / stack amount so that you can't invent matter
• fixed chrome deploy. Chrome should also not download as much when we update.

...And a small day-after hotfix:

• wormholes won't show up in the ocean any more
• fixed crash when walking across long bridges
• killed some spider-related lag

New features:

• Spider dens have a full life cycle. Tiers are more meaningful, and higher tiered dens will require strategy to overcome.
• Spider queens come out of the highest-tier nests to wreak havoc and spread spideryness.
• A new type of warrior spider protects high-level dens and the queen. They are resistant to kiting, so a frontal assault is not recommended.
• Wilson can build fire darts, and light pretty much every creature on fire.
• Wilson can build a spider hat from egg sacks that lets him control spiders. Just be careful when you take it off!
• Wilson can build tooth traps and use them for defense or for guilt-free rabbit hunting.
• There is a new, experimental map gen algorithm that you can use. It is a work in progress and is largely untested and unbalanced, so you may not live for very long! (Don’t worry, though - the old map gen is still the default!)
• Pet Smallbirds will demand food when hungry, and can starve to death.
• Wilson can build a warm hat. It... makes something happen.
• New “epic fight” and “dawn” music.

Tuning:

• High-level hound attacks are more intense.
• Krampus is silent until you reach a certain threshold of naughtiness.
• Farming takes longer.
• Some fruits and cooked foods are a bit less potent.
• Seeds drop less frequently.
• The birdcage seed sorter is less reliable.
• Pig houses wear out after a certain number of its pigs are killed.
• Werepig monster meat threshold increased to 4, werepigs drop normal meat.

Fixes:

• Stuff that falls out of bounds will disappear after a bit.
• Most monsters will ignore things that are out of bounds.
• Gobblers and Krampusses try to avoid getting caught against the edge of the world.
• Fireflies drop individually.
• Mobs shouldn’t get stuck in sliding animations.
