Grounded Reaches 10 Million Players and Goes Into the Wood with New Update

The GroundedThe Backyard has been visited by over 10,000,000 players! It has been great seeing so many players come to find out what it’s like to be shrunk down to the size of an ant. Even better is the excitement of seeing people play before the full game’s release. The game has a small development team that receives feedback constantly from its community. GroundedIt wouldn’t be the same without those who supported it during the Game Preview/Early Access periods. This feedback will enable Groundedto be in a better position when the full release of it later in this year. 

Adam Brennecke (Grounded Game Director) and his team. I have made a quick video thanking everybody for their support.It was an incredible achievement. The team also released a commemorative video to celebrate this milestone.

The team is still working towards that final release but they have more updates to make the yard look better. This latest update, 0.12, has plenty to offer adventurers, as well as new species to see. Players will find the BBQ is now overturned as they make their way to the top yard. The BBQ is now a hot mess, and players must be ready to take on the heat. 

After players clear the ash they’ll be able to enter the woodpile. This is the new lair for a brand new game. The termites are a new species of creature that can be found in your backyard. You can create a new type of axe by using the woodpile, an enormous dungeon that houses a variety of new creatures.  

That’s not all the update brings, though! There are eight other animals that will be entering the yard, along with termites and soldier termites found in the woodpile. You should be on the lookout to see the ladybird larvae and ladybug larvae as well the black ox and soldier termites.
