Winners, rejoice: the Raccoon is now officially on the farm. It’s hungry, it’s trashy, and it’s got surprises up its furry little sleeves.

What’s it eating? What’s it really up to? We followed the trail of crumbs.

• Added the option to change your email on the Web Portal.
• Drastically improved the ease of use when creating an account and completing your CLM Profile on the Web Portal.
• Fixed a Cancel button not disappearing when selecting the Themes tool.
• Strawberries & other multiple harvest plants: We’ve added the growth time of the plant (in green) to the Shop cards, so it’s easier to understand.

Strawberries times

The times for the new Strawberries are shorter than before, if you consider the full plant cycle. We do plan to reduce their growth time further, but this will take about a week due to the complexity of the game and how this specific case works.

Worst case scenario: you have Greenhouses (-25%), irrigation (-25%), and you’re in Bellflower Meadow (-15%). That makes calculating exact times tricky, especially with all the possible situations (like removing Greenhouses while Strawberries are growing, using Fertilizer, using Rain, plots running out of water, etc.).

So, for now, they aren’t affected by Greenhouses or irrigation.
Here’s how the times compare:

• Before: 9h base time, but with Greenhouses + irrigation: 4h 30m
  Total time for 3 harvests: 13h 30m (since you had to replant twice)
• Now: 5h growth time + 2h + 2h + 2h (for 3 harvests)
  Total time for 3 harvests: 11h
  Plus, you don’t need to replant Strawberries two more times.

New type of Crops: Multiple Harvest Crops – you can now harvest Strawberries and Pineberries multiple times. They behave just as Shrubs, but you plant them on your plots, just as any other Crop.

Bug fixes and improvements:

• Earned Ribbons popups – Tweaked how Ribbon popups work, since at the beginning you’ll earn a lot of the first ones. Now, only the last 3 Ribbons earned will open automatically. The first 4 appear directly in the Achievements window, and you can collect the new extra reward (the tiny gift box) by clicking on them there.
• XP Bar – Increased the size of the wrap-around XP bar from 3 px to 4 px, so it’s more visible.
• XP bar – Added a setting to show the old XP bar, that is the exact same width and height of the old bar, with the XP visible inside it. Settings > Page 4 > Classic XP Bar.
• Reduced motion – At your request, we added a new accessibility setting to reduce motion of UI elements. This affects all popups, not just the new ones, and the buttons, limiting the animations they open and close with, to the point it’s boring (or great, depending on where you stand). Settings > Page 4 > Reduced motion.
• Tooltips (the blue text on white ones) – Increased the contrast, so it’s exactly the same contrast as the old tooltips (brown on cream, or cream on black ones).
• Neighbors Bar – Increased the Neighbors you see in your Bar while on your farm from 5 to 8, just as it was before.
• fixed a bug where the value bars were over the popups.
• fixed a bug where when visiting Neigbors through Market Stand would close the popup to show the Visiting popup, then open the Market stand again. Now it shows that latter over the Market Stand.
• fixed a bug where “Foraging plants growing spree” message delayed other things that needed to appear at your request.
• Tweaked some sounds and graphics for the Baker.

Upcoming tweaks:

• Shorter animations for the Ribbons popups.
• Shorter animations with less motion for the HUD and the Achievements Section.
• All popups will be optimized to open smoothly, using improvements made possible by the recent game engine upgrade.
• Improved HUD button transitions between popups.

We initially estimated this redesign to take 2 weeks, but it took over 2 months. Some modules needed for performance, quality of life, and configurability went much deeper than initially anticipated. The game now loads about 20% faster, and all redesigned popups run smoother, with much less FPS dropping.

In regards to the issues you rightfully mentioned in your feedback about the redesign – what you see on screen is only a small part of it. Most of the work went into rebuilding the UI structure behind the scenes. That’s what now allows us to change and improve things much more easily, based on what we (and you) want, so we’ll continue making tweaks until it’s frictionless. We also can’t wait to show you the new Shop and Barn. They have a flexible layout that works on much more screen sizes, plus some new features we think you’ll really enjoy.

Bug fixes and improvements:

• HUD:
  • Several glitches related to the new HUD are fixed, and we’ll continue to refine the interface in the following days, based on your feedback.
• Quests:
  • Fixed a Quests glitch that didn’t show how many Quests you had from the Main Story. This rightfully made players who like doing Quests believe there is one very long Quest. We designed them so that a Quest is a single page, for simplicity purposes. Since these Quests were made for new players, they unlock gradually as you level up, not all at once. They’re meant to teach how new items work and encourage you to try them. Although these Quests are not mandatory, we felt bad about the glitch that caused frustration for some players who tried to finish all 30 of them in a day (and some did!!). So we gave 5 RC to everyone who started on these Quests. We strive to make CLM a game where you can have fun and relax.
  • Easter Quests
    • For the reasons above, we’ve reorganised the Easter Quests into Chapters, each with up to 7 Quests. We’ve also added titles for upcoming Quests, so it’s clearer what’s ahead without spoiling the content. We hope you’ll like this format, as we think it’s more informative without being too revealing.
    • The Easter Quests have the same length and difficulty as last year’s Event, with a few necessary additions — such as selling an item you make (thanks to your suggestions!). They’re still in the well-known format: plant, harvest, collect, make, just without skipping some of the final steps. This is why this year you have 7 instead of the usual 4.
• Slightly refreshed the look of a few Crops: Carrots, Rice, Green Beans, Onions.

Happy Easter from the CLM Team!

• HUD redesign! For full details, click here: https://clm.beetree.games/help/general-gameplay/hud-redesign-release-notes
  Key features:
  • New Quest System – Quests have been completely redesigned into a Quest Book with filtering options. They’re now much more accessible and easier to manage. We’ve also introduced several new quests available from the very beginning of the game, so everyone can experience the updated system.
  • New Achievements Popups – All ribbons have been updated with a fresh look and a new animation when you earn one. Plus, each ribbon popup now includes an extra reward. There’s also a new Achievement for candles: Let There Be Light.
  • Simplified Neighbors Visiting – Clicking on a Neighbor now takes you straight to their Farm. If you’d like to pick a location instead, just hover over their card to choose where to go. You can also switch locations while already visiting. The Neighbors bar enters “visiting mode”, showing up to 20 Neighbors while you’re exploring.
  • Improved Value Bars – Value bars (coins, RC, etc.) are now larger and easier to read at a glance. Plus, their width is dynamic, so billionaires don’t feel their cash balance squeezed.
  • New XP Progress Bar – The XP bar has been extended and now wraps around the star icon for better visibility. Hover over it to see your exact XP. There’s also a rain cloud warning that appears when you’re close to leveling up—don’t miss the chance to plant before the rain!
  • Popup Queue System – When multiple events happen at once, they’re now queued instead of popping up all together. This helps you keep track of what’s going on without missing anything. Popups only clear from the queue when you close them (either by claiming the reward or clicking the close button).
  • HUD Themes – you can customize the look of the HUD to your liking from Settings. You can also add or remove some buttons.
• game improvements and optimizations:
  • The Settings, Quests, Achievements, and World Map popups have been optimized for better performance. All other popups will receive the same treatment soon.
  • Several optimizations have been made to reduce video memory consumption, with more improvements on the way.

If you think we missed a value bar appearing when you have a certain popup open, or if you have suggestions regarding this HUD redesign, feel free to message us! Also, please keep in mind the HUD is in beta, so small glitches may appear in the first hours, until we fix them all.

• Bug fixes and improvements:

• Fixed 5105 when placing crops in Cypress Grove in Maritime Forest Land.
• Fixed 5112 when selecting gear products from Gear Remote Management.
• Fixed Cypress Grove Blue Dot not working.
• Fixed double Joe when leaving Bellflower Meadow.
• Fixed Train Barn quantities not reset after reopening.
• Fixed a bug that affected 2 players where Network Delay popup was not appearing, causing the game to play for several minutes without saving.
• Fixed Jam’r stuck on old Honey instead of using Sugar Portions.
• Updated Speedy Farmer badge to check current day XP also.
• Updated Chicken Coop speed-up nesting button position.
• NEW! Can watch ads to speed up Orders’ waiting time.

• Upcoming changes:
  Due to an upgrade in the game’s engine, we are now able to optimize the user interface for smoother performance on your computer. Over the next few weeks, we will gradually update the user interface to help you get familiar with the changes.

  We plan to start with the game’s HUD (Heads-Up Display), followed by the Shop and Barn. This update is also necessary to better accommodate today’s variety of screen sizes—both small and large—by introducing a more adaptable, fluid layout with larger text and images where possible. This, along with the performance upgrades that should use less memory, will allow the game to be played on more tablets and even phones (depending on the device’s RAM).

• Baby Chicks and Chicken Coop can now be claimed, for players who completed the Event.
  – we added an extra nest inside it, that appears only when you have a Broody Hen.
  – there’s no need of collecting other eggs in order to place the Hen inside it. The 2 areas are separate inside the coop.
  – requirement for a Rooster on the farm, or Leghorn Eggs from the Market/Tyrone from players that have a Rooster will be implemented very soon. At the moment, all Leghorn Eggs are OK.
  – more refinements will follow in the following days to the behavior of the Hen and Baby Chicks.

• The Grand Prize of the Event—Baby Chicks—also comes with a brand-new Chicken Coop! We forgot to mention this. The Event was designed with a new Coop in mind, so you won’t have to move your Chickens around.
• The Beehive Customizer is now available! Produce Honey in style and impress your Neighbors with your unique designs.
