It´s Wednesday again and status update time!

First of all we´re really happy about the latest patch and the response to the Muzzleloader. We do hope all of you who didn’t comment on it is also enjoying it! We really feel like we managed to add something a little different to the game this time, and we’ve had some fun hunting with it here at the studio as well.

Nordic retail
theHunter will be out in Nordic retail stores around the 30th of September. Yesterday Robert and Peter had lunch with the guys at Wendros who is really happy about the product. The updated box (art) also came out looking really nice in print.

Muzzleloader competitions
New comps have been set up by Björn and the plan is having them up and running by next Monday after running through some testing.

Additional Mule Deer rack
We’ve started work on an additional antler model for the Mule Deer to attempt to satisfy the demand for an even bigger and thicker “world record” type of antler.

Tripod
Not much has happened with this one since last week. As soon as Erik has the time he will make the necessary tweaks to the code to get it working the way we want before we proceed to finalizing!

Parker Bow
Work on the new compound bow that was announced last week has been started, but no preliminary release date had been decided yet as there´s some other things being prioritized.

Other trivia
Yesterday Eriks computer decided it had enough of crunching numbers and gave him the blue screen of death instead of the normal Windows start up screen. A new computer is on its way and in the meantime Erik is working (sort of) on a temporary machine. Also our programmer Andres will have a few days off as he´s getting one of his front teeth fixed after a small biking accident he had a while back. And Peter has bought himself some gear and a fishing permit! A few members of the team was out on a great little fishing trip last weekend, which was all about catching fish, getting half lost and really wet in the woods and finally some beer and a great dinner! The full story will be up here soon!

Happy hunting until next week!
