For all you sick "I don't play games in early access" psychopaths who haven't been enjoying this gorgeous beaver colony builder since 2021 already, please be aware that Timberborn just dropped 1.0.

Welp, I guess the weekend's starting early, and may possibly extend a fair bit into next week.

@alatiera @bodil I downloaded the 1.0 update yesterday and somehow clock went forward 6 hours.

@bodil I wish I didn't have such an addictive nature. I can't usually play video games since I get obsessed and will then spend every waking moment wanting to play.

Kick some ass for those of us who stay away from games!

[bodil@social.treehouse.systems]

What do you know, the beavers built a dam.

[bodil@social.treehouse.systems]

The devs certainly went all in with the new automation system.

[paddy@mastodon.cloud]

@bodil oh _noooooo_

[bodil@social.treehouse.systems]

So, uh… I could use this to tell my Home Assistant to trigger the fire alarm if the beavers' reservoir dam goes dry.

You may deliver your Jurassic Park quotes now.

[bodil@social.treehouse.systems]

Actually, since Timberborn is moddable with Harmony, I could absolutely write a mod that provides full Home Assistant integration, so Timberborn simply appears as a device in HAss with all the in-game automations automatically registered as sensors.

I'm sure I'll think of a practical use case for it eventually.

[schwa@mastodon.social]

@bodil You're taking this too dam far.

[macbraughton@infosec.exchange]

@bodil okay, you got me. I saw this game a while back, time to give it a whirl

[flq@freiburg.social]

@bodil what..the.. now I‘m curious!

[flq@freiburg.social]

@schwa

I need some strong beaverage now!

[listrophy@ruby.social]

@bodil whoa. I thought that was Terra Nil. Looks exactly the same

[bodil@social.treehouse.systems]

@listrophy If so, only because I've zoomed out so far it may accidentally seem to be isometric.

[xyhhx@social.treehouse.systems]

@bodil what the fuck lmao
