This page displays the five most recent dates with updates to the game. A full archive can be found here.
13 December 2024 - Unlisted update
No patch notes were published, but the build string was incremented to 0.16.3-40c346118c50fda5. The previous patch made the default action of banks to open the menu, but this update reverted the default action to open the bank and added a "deposit all" button to bank interfaces.
Patch notes for 13 Dec 2024
Quality of life improvements
- Add 'drop all' action to backpack item menu.
- Add checkbox to select/deselect all items in the sell-all tab of the shop interface.
- Allow ventures to be aborted directly from the venture interface. I.e you no longer need to walk back to the venture spot, if all you want to do is abort.
- Make it so the 'default action' for some specific blocks/npcs is to open the menu rather than do the first action on the menu. This is used if there is more than 1 action you are likely to want. For example on banks you often want 'Open', but also often want 'Deposit all'.
Bug fixes
- Improve layout of transmog interface.
- Change the facial hair clues in detective investigations to be more distinct.
- Fix bug where leaderboards did not update your score unless your rank changed!
- Fix bug where new characters could not chat during their first session (i.e. until they logged out and logged back in).
- Fix bug where occasionally rooms lost most of their textures until they were reloaded.
- Fix various typos.
10 December 2024 - Unlisted update #2
No patch notes were published, but the build string was incremented to 0.15.4-11902665e8a1fed6. This update fixed a bug where selecting "Past Actions" would not work and cause an error.
10 December 2024 - Unlisted update
No patch notes were published, but the build string was incremented to 0.15.3-211d14cfd2762e6a. This update fixed a bug where Christmas hats were not dropping.
Christmas 2024 Event
Christmas has arrived in Brighter Shores! Christmas themed hats in a variety of styles and colors will be given to you randomly as you play the game and earn XP. There are 20 different hats to collect.
To make it a easier to find the hat you want, or complete your collection, you can swap Christmas hats with other players. Click on a player in 'Nearby Players' to offer to swap the hat you are wearing with the hat they are wearing.
This event will end in early January, after which it will never be possible to collect these hats again, so you can use them to prove you were there for the first ever Brighter Shores Christmas.
Patch notes for 10 Dec 2024
Quality of life improvements
- Passive foraging and gathering now give only the item for your level, rather than a mixture of items up to your level.
- Improve routing finding so characters no longer try to route through closed doors such as incomplete crime dens.
Bug fixes
- Fix auto-withdraw quantity for kelp and wallplants.
- Improved the message in the past actions interface when you do not have enough knowledge to perform the action despite drinking a level boost potion.
- Fix bug where the wall puzzle in the "Spirit Essence" quest would disappear at certain window sizes.
- Fix various typos.
Patch notes for 04 Dec 2024
Quality of life improvements
- Knowledge can now go up to 200% before you must spend it.
- The default action on the wall safe in the guard's archive is now 'use item on' instead of 'close'.
Bug fixes
- Fix floor tentacles being able to attack twice rapidly if you open combat with a melee attack.
Patch notes for 03 Dec 2024
Quality of life improvements
- Add 'auto' buttons to the shop and bank interfaces. These automatically buy/withdraw the number of the item we think will be most useful to you. For example if buying bacon this button will say '12' because you will typically want 12 bacon and 12 bread.
- Add 'buy max', and 'sell all' buttons to the shop interface instead of the 'buy 5' and 'sell 5' buttons.
- Show the size of stacks on the storage rift deposit interface.
- Allow high level forensics potions to be purchased in the apothecary shop.
- Change monster loot drops such as 'mandibles' and 'toad's eyes', etc... to draw their name in gray instead of orange so they don't look like an epic item drop.
Balancing
- Slightly adjust the XP calculation for activities which use profession equipment, so that the percentage boost from the profession equipment is more precisely what was advertised.
Bug fixes
- Fix crash that makes it hard to repair the wheel in the quest 'Mantuban's Legacy' if someone else is using the forge.
- Make the automatic movement when auto-retaliating not cancel your existing route.
- Show correct handcuffs when catching thieves.
- Display correct tooltip for acquired discounts.
- Add 'not acquired' icon for discounts which have not yet been acquired.
- Display prices on item cards with the same precision as shops.
- Automatically scroll to the top when viewing the overall leaderboards.
- Allow npcs to attack players who are crouching.
- Close the action menu when the player changes room.
- Fix route finding bug which occurs if you teleport and then click to walk just as the teleport happens.
- Fix bug with chat bubbles jumping position when you change room.
- Fix bug with spottable thief info card breaking if you change room.
- Fix bug with investigation info card breaking if the bounty is cleared.

- Fix to North Walls map.
- Fix various typos.
