Ha it's no problem at all, I'm just glad to see you're enjoying it. I have some similar plans to your totem idea with the blacksmith shop next to the cave, but no planned date for it. The area around the ruins are definitely going to get some love, not in the form of puzzles, but it should be very fun for people.
Crops are also going to get a huge overhaul. I'd like to redo them in this update, but if I don't have time it will definitely make it into the early access release.
