Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure recently received a major update that introduced changes to creatures and combat, alongside several in-game fixes.
Creatures
Previously, creatures could only be found in cages, but now, they also populate the entire world. The creatures found in rainy regions are cautious and will attempt to flee when they see players. It should also be noted that creatures can now be tamed by feeding them.
Combat
The latest update features new monster variations in the island. Now, all monsters have sight perception and will proceed to attack players on sight. The new perception mechanic should clue in players when enemy attacks will happen. The developers also reduced the knockback caused by Hammer and Hatchet.
