==March 26, 2013 - Doorway to Adventure==
New Features
*Adventure mode is now integrated into survival mode. In a survival mode level, you can find a special portal that will take you to the start of adventure mode. If you die in adventure mode, you will wake up back in your survival level, outside of the portal. From there you can try again (restarting at level 1, of course). Dying in survival mode is still perma-death-fatal, and retrying a survival level will always generate a new one for you. Any existing saves that you might have from previous patches will be interpreted as survival levels - you should be able to teleport out of them to get access to the new features.
*New front-end screens for dealing with the save slots and the new game flow.
*The adventure levels have been re-done to better match what their final structure will be. They’re still a bit rough around the edges, but you can start to see the overall sweep of the game now. Please see the detailed descriptions at the end of the change list.
New Craftables

New Level Features

*Pleasingly-arranged mushroom rings
*One-way "Sick" wormhole (only in adventure mode currently)
*Pig-head-on-a-stick - someone’s been busy!

Tuning

Level Descriptions: The adventure levels are still being worked on and refined, but here's an idea of where the are right now and where we want them to be.
Level 1:
Near-constant rain and frequent short winters take a toll on your sanity and your fires. You must survive in these more extreme conditions as you hunt for the teleportato pieces. When complete, this level should feel similar to a survival level, but with increased pressure on all your resources.
Level 2:
This level is smaller and shorter than the previous level, but it is permanently winter! The aim is to survive the cold without any preparation time. When complete, this level should keep you moving quickly.
Level 3:
The level features a resource-rich central island, surrounded by dangerous lands containing each of the teleportato pieces. Right now it's still fairly lush, but eventually the outlying islands should be quite inhospitable!
Level 4:
Use the first land to stock up. Once you pass through the dying wormhole, you'll need everything you've got to survive. We're currently still working on the balance between the two lands.
Level 5:
This level should put your survival skills to the ultimate test, not only will there be harsh weather and tough monsters, but resources will be extremely scarce. Eventually. Right now it's just been roughed in, but it's still got lots of badguys in it!
Level 6:
Maxwell is still devising this level...

==February 26, 2013 - A Winter's Tale==
Winter
Winter comes every 20 days or so, with snow and a new audio landscape. Ambient air temperature is modelled, and your character will get colder the longer he/she stays out in the open. Getting too cold for too long will cause freezing damage. You can extend your time away from the fire by wearing warm clothing. Nights are longer, and vegetation does not replenish. Bees and butterflies don’t leave their houses in the winter.
Improved Mod Support
There is a new mod API that should make mods break less when we update, and allows multiple mods to work at the same time. Here is some documentation on how to create a mod. Language packs are now actually supported. We supply a strings.pot template file with every update, and the game can load .po language files. This should make maintaining translations a lot easier, and you can use industry-standard tools. For more info, see here.
New creatures:
* Mactusk N' Son - Sets up camp in an igloo with his Son, and then hunt you with blowdarts and hounds.
* Deerclops - He’s big, he likes to smash stuff, and he’s really hard to kill. You should probably just run away.
* Winter Koalefant - You can harvest his warm winter trunk.
* Snowbird - A winter bird that drops a new type of feather.
* Mosquito - Spawn from ponds or Maxwell's Mosquito Traps. They eat too much and explode!
* Blue Hound - Assists MacTusk N' Son with fighting and he has chance to drop Blue Gem

* Island chain worlds with lots of Worm Holes
Sandbox Mode (continued) Added a new world creation screen. There are only a couple of options enabled currently, but soon you will be able to unlock more!
Sanity tuning From our testing, we determined that sanity was coming on too early for new players, but was also easily avoidable by established players. The intention is for sanity to be a long-term lurking danger, so this was the complete opposite of what we were going for. Here are some changes to help rectify this:
* Vegetables , Crock Pot foods don’t regen as much sanity
* Monsters cause more sanity drain when near
* Player’s Initial Sanity is higher
* Pure darkness causes a large drop Sanity (instead of a gradient around a light source)
* Shadowbeasts show up later in the Sanity curve, and are unattackable when you are not insane.
* The Crawling Horror is weaker and the Terrorbeak is tougher
* Charlie the invisible monster deals sanity damage when he hits you.
* The sanity effect jiggles more slowly, so as to be less nauseating.
Tuning / Fixes
* Rabbit Traps work again
* Maxwell leaves traps for you in Adventure Mode
* Armor is less effective
* Player attacks are less powerful

* Bees run around between attacks
* Meat healing and health values adjusted
* Dead rabbits respawn slower
* Beefalo drop fewer meats
* Honey doesn't heal as much
* Honey generates more slowly in bee boxes

* Stale food has less of a hunger penalty
* Healing values are a bit lower in general
* Ponds show up in more places
* Eye Bone turns to ash during teleportation even if you hide them in a backpack
* Teleportato pieces are more scattered, and have little setpiece scenes surrounding them
* Pan Flute require a mandrake to craft
* Darts shouldn’t miss targets that are walking away
* More effective Bush Hat
===February 28, 2013 - Hotfix===
Balance:
* Armor durability back to sanity-patch levels
* Player does 34 base damage instead of 33 (so as to not leave creatures with 1 health that requires an extra hit)

* Tent overhaul - acts as a multi-use Straw Roll (restores sanity, costs time and hunger)
* Straw Roll has a normal hunger penalty, not a percentage
Fixes:

* Highest campfire light level circle is larger than the second highest

==February 12, 2013 – Insanity!==
New Character: Wes - Do you think Don’t Starve is too easy? Try playing as Wes, the mime! He’s not good at doing anything!
Sanity - The player character loses sanity when he is left alone in the dark, gets close to scary monsters, or does crazy things like eating monster meat or jumping through a Worm Hole. Sanity can be regained through acts of dapperness, like wearing fancy clothes in the sunshine and eating candy.
Low sanity is not fatal, but strange creatures from another time and place are attracted to madness. There are new, powerful items that can be built from the Nightmare Fuel that they leave behind when killed.
Save Slots - You can have up to four save games at once now. Your existing save will be imported into the first slot when you start the game for the first time.
Sandbox Mode - This is the game as you all know it. There will eventually be a customization screen before you start a level, but you just get the default generation for now.
Experimental Adventure Mode - When you start a new game, you can choose to play in adventure (i.e. story) mode. Currently, there are five levels of difficulty as you progress through the levels. This is an early test, so we have a lot of work to do to make these levels meaningful and fun. We also need to add the story’s ending. This is for experienced DS players who want a taste of the future.
Pathfinding - Monsters and followers can navigate around corners and walls.
Mod Support (steam only)- Modding is now allowed! We’re distributing the source scripts with the game, so have a look in data/scripts, and see what you can do. There is an example (machine-translated) French language pack included with the game to get you started. See the modding forum for more details.
New Craftables:
*Bush Hat - Hide from your enemies in plain sight.
*Night Light - Light your nights with nightmare fuel.
*Night Armour - Protects the flesh, but sacrifices the mind.
*Night Sword - Live by the sword, go crazy by the sword.
*Cobbles - Build your own roads.
*Taffy + Pumpkin Cookies - New recipes! Mmmmmmm!
Tuning:
*The tent is cheaper to make, and doesn’t restore health any more.
*Natural roads are curvy and look better.
*There is a way for non-Wilson characters to find beard hairs in the wild.
*Sometimes, when you find pig villages, they will have carrot and flower farms.
*Lots of small, under-the-hood changes to the world gen.
*Seeds provide less hunger.
*Birds drop a feather -or- a morsel, never both.
*Rabbits take longer to respawn.
*Hounds drop teeth less often.
*Traps and Toothtraps have slightly fewer uses.
*Farms take a bit longer to grow.
*Birds won’t land on seeds if you are standing too close to them.
*Spider dens spit out less creep.
*Creep without a spider den disappears. (As a side-effect, creep can no longer be picked up and placed.)
*Walls have more health.
*Torches cost more to build, but last longer.
*Corpses are back!
Bug Fixes:
*There is much less mist in the graveyards, since it was causing performance and visibility problems.
*Stuff that falls near the ocean shouldn’t disappear.
*Stone walls don’t take fire damage.
*Hounds don’t follow you through the teleportato.
*You can’t be killed while you are using the teleportato.
*Stumps no longer rain from the sky on loading some games.
*Rabbits no longer phase through obstacles.
*Placers for campfires won’t disappear into the night when trying to build them.
*Heated beefalo won’t go out of their way to aggro walls.
*Spider queens no longer give birth to unlimited spiders when they have a combat target.
Deprecations:
The old world gen and the old research system have been removed. If you have an existing save game that was using the old research system, you will have to build some science machines to unlock your recipes.
==January 29, 2013 – Progress!==
You can escape the world by finding Wooden Thing and activating it. You get to keep your inventory, and you cash-out any XP that you have and unlock characters without dying. This is the first step towards story mode. The world that you escape to is no harder than the first, but this will change soon!
New Research Method: Under the new research method, you unlock access to tiers of recipes by building research machines. You can unlock a specific recipe by building it near an active machine, after which point you can build it anywhere. Your known recipes last as long as you do - they will travel with you to new worlds if you escape, but you will lose them if you die. There are no more research points or grinding. The science machine is now a bit cheaper to make, and the alchemy engine is a bit more expensive.
This is a big change, so we've made it optional for the time being. When you start a new world, you will get to choose between the new research method or the old one. Your progress in the old method is not available in the new method, but will be there if you switch back. We will be phasing out the old method soon, but wanted to introduce the new one carefully.
New Character: Wickerbottom The Librarian can be unlocked with XP. She gets a bonus research tier, because she is so smart.
New Creatures:
*There are Baby Beefalo. You can eat them, if you are a terrible person.
*Worm Holes are sprinkled throughout new worlds. I dare you to click on one!
*Koalefant, an elusive herbivore that you can hunt. He is hard to find, and harder to catch. He drops Koalefant Trunk and lots of meat.
New Craftables:
*You can build three types of defensive Walls (Hay Walls, Wood Walls, and Stone Walls). These can be destroyed by monsters, and repaired by you. The AI pathfinding is not done yet but will probably go in the next update, so enjoy confusing the heck out of pigmen while you can.
*You can make wooden floor tiles and place them like turf.
*You can make a Boomerang and throw it at other creatures. Just be careful when it flies back at you!
*You can build a Pitchfork, which takes over turfing duties from the shovel.
*You can craft a nice, comfy Breezy Vest.
New Other Stuff:
*Spider dens produce creep tiles Sticky Webbing that slow down movement. You can dig them up and place them if you like.
*Added a better death effect for creatures.
*Spline-based Roads look better, and make you walk faster.
Balance Changes:
*Every new Meat Effigy that you create takes a chunk of your max health. It gets returned when you die, or when you destroy the effigy.
*Made Monster Lasagna recipe that shows up when you use too much monster meat in the crock pot.
*Cooked / crocked foods inherit spoiledness from their ingredients (with a small bonus).
*The "new world gen" is now the default. The old method will soon be deprecated.
*Added a character quip when Hounds are approaching.
*The Tent no longer swaps characters - it is now acts as a super-powerful bedroll that restores all health and hunger.
*Honey Nuggets and Honey Ham spoil a bit faster.
Misc Bug fixes:
*Birds don't spawn seeds when flying away if there's already seeds nearby.
*Tooth Trap can be reset with Right-click.
*Beard fountain doesn't... fountain.

*Berries won't show up in farm plots.
==January 15, 2013 – Spoiled Rotten==
*Food spoils over long periods of time. Stale and Spoiled foods are less beneficial. Rotten food is practically inedible, but can be used as fuel or fertilizer.
*Health and Hunger values have been re-tuned across the board. Characters have a larger hunger buffer now.
*Crock Pot foods are stackable up to 40.
*You can build an Ice Box to mitigate spoilage.
*New unlockable character: WX-78, a robot who can eat spoiled food with no penalties, and who hates all living things.
*Smallbirds grow up to become angsty Teenbirds (Smallish Tallbirds in-game). Teenbirds grow up to be Tallbirds and leave the player.
*The mysterious Otto Von Chesterfield (an Eye Bone item that spawn a Chester) can be found in some Marshes, and can be befriended (a new world is needed to find the Eye Bone).
*Beefalo travel in proper herds now. Herds regenerate off-screen (currently with adults)
*Beefalo herds become agitated when they go into heat, and will chase away the player if they are not wearing a Beefalo Hat.
*Beefalo sometimes drop a Beefalo Horn, which can be used to move beefalos around.
