Timberborn is a city-builder full of beavers, in a world where humans are long gone. It's properly great, and now it's finally about to hit the big 1.0. I absolutely loved it when I initially covered it here on GamingOnLinux back in July 2023 (wow, time really flies).
Over 4 years in Early Access is about to come to an end, and you can even try the 1.0 yourself as it's available in a Steam Beta. It's not quite finished with only some of the new features for the 1.0 added like multiple new map objects, such as Water Seeps and Unstable Cores, as well as two fresh maps, Spiral Stairs, customizable Banners and duplication tools along with reworking modding to make it easier.
There's even a few visual tweaks and animation upgrades to make the whole game look quite a bit better. On top of that there's even more like improved loading times, improved performance, upgrades to the UI and so on.
Check out the video below on it:

Though, and I know this is silly, them beavers walking on their hind legs when carrying loads is bugging me for some reason. I think I would have preferred some more leaning into quadruped aesthetics.
