Patch 28 adds Storage Piers to Whiskerwood, so you can park any unused ships. And if you truly don't want to keep a ship, you can use the new Scuttle Ship mechanic! ⛵ The update also includes crash fixes & other optimizations. store.steampowered.com/news/app/248…

When we arrived on this island, we had only ourselves and a dream. Together, we built a great kingdom. A little slice of paradise where self-determined Whiskers can reap the fruits of their collective labor... #ScreenshotSaturday

Rally Point: Whiskerwood suggests that, even without the violence, colonialism is a scam
Rabbit-person warren builder Whiskerwood is surprisingly skillful at dealing with issues of taxation, diplomacy, and subservience to a foreign power.
