Introducing: Gifting! If you have extra ÆRTHLINGS figs you can now gift them to other players to expand your Lineages and help friends start their ÆRTHLINGS journey. We've also introduced a bonus Quest that lets all players unlock a free digital Lilibud when they scan in a new fig. This update also fixes a controls issue that slowed down harvesting and patched a number of issues for the beta multiplayer feature. Join our Discord for more information on joining a multiplayer playtest!

1.6.0 brings new ways to customize the way you play ÆRTHLINGS! We're introducing profile avatars that unlock when you scan in a new Species, and new options for customizing your controls in Settings. The biggest news is that this version lays the groundwork for ÆRTHLINGS multiplayer! We’ll be rolling out access slowly to make sure it’s working properly. Join us on Discord to hear about the full release! Also, lots of improvements: cleaner controls, new food displays, and better decor loading.

A second attempt at hot fixes on this version. This update will move Aerthlings into available houses as long as they don't already have a quest to build a new one. As ever thank you for your patience as we roll out new features and your help tracking down bugs!

Hotfix time! Characters no longer fall through the ÆRTH, and Requests are once again spawning as usual. 1.5.0 also kicked all ÆRTHLINGS out of their houses, but ÆRTHLINGS will stay put once housed in 1.5.1. We also had reports of worlds disappearing on certain devices; those words should now appear normally. Thank you everyone for your patience as we roll out new features and your help tracking down bugs!

Welcome to 1.5.0 and the introduction of SCAN LOOT! Now every ÆRTHLING you hatch drops a Scan Chest with resources, rare drops, and a chance to earn new Epic Sculptures. If you're lucky you'll find a Legendary Scan Chest with a dazzling HOLO SKIN for your new ÆRTHLING! We've also made a big performance improvement that we're calling CHONK STREAMING. Now larger worlds will hide CHONKS that are far off-screen causing the game to run faster. So get out there and expand your world!

Bug fixes and performance improvements

Your Lineage rewards are now front and center: a new Lineage tab in the Collection screen makes it easy to see which ÆRTHLINGS have Lineage XP and MUTÆTION Points to claim. We've also added some fan-favorite items to the ÆTHER shop…with a limited-time free bundle of them to celebrate! We've also improved performance and fixed a number of bugs including invisible world collisions, stuck NFC scanners and keyboard issues during account creation. Thanks for the reports; keep them coming!

A few small bug fixes and auto-save changes made to the world and inventory every minute to prevent loss of progress and losing items.

Managing your inventory just got a lot less chaotic. You can now sort and search your way to exactly what you need, and character details got a visual glow-up while we were at it. We also snuck your account email into settings. Beyond that, this update is heavy on bug fixes — more biomes can spawn, locked recipes have been unlocked, and that missing quest icon has finally found its way home.

New to ÆRTH? A cinematic intro sets the scene, and NPC-guided quests walk you through your first chonks — the worlds you'll expand, explore, and eventually call home. Your crew also now has a home: the collection screen tracks every character you've found, scanned, or traded for, and rewards you as you go. This latest version has more bug fixes for the above, hoping to fix trade portal shop, broken quest markers for healing scars, and issues causing characters to reset.

And they are absolutely thrilled to get in your way. These crabby little moon mischief makers spin and zip right across your path. Try not to trip over their wild moves. Bug Fixes Added a repulsion volume to the Dance Floor challenge stone so AERTHLINGS can no longer perch on top of it like it is a VIP balcony.

Our Earthlings have been busy! You can now interact with houses freely, no more upgrade requests from your ÆRTHLINGS, and housing levels are fixed. Plus a bundle of bug fixes: requests save and update properly, cubed ÆRTHLINGS return home, and a handful of save glitches are gone!
