Hello, Merchants!
We’re pleased to announce the release of the new Update #03! This time we bring some juicy improvements aimed to polish the game flow, the world balance and the UI.
This update is a bit smaller than usual because we are working on some big new content behind the scenes, we are a very small team but we still wanted to introduce some community-inspired changes in the meantime, we really hope you’ll enjoy them!
Here’s a list of the features that you’ll find in the latest update, which is out today!
💎 Community Feedback: We highlight improvements that are based on community feedback or suggestions. We look forward to your feedback in our Steam Community Hub or Discord server.
Quality of Life
- Companion Hiring improved flow: the Diary’s Companions section now automatically opens when you hire a Companion to allow you to craft new potions right away!
- World generation balance: we improved the game world generation algorithm in order to guarantee more special buildings variation between cities at the same distance to the Capital (row). Your choices now differ a lot more in terms of special buildings when you have to choose where to travel next, which allows for different strategies and play styles. Please note that this improvement can only take place with a new world generation, so it’s not applied in your current game but it will be applied starting from your next game.
- 💎 Item’s rarity & condition colors: we added color coding for item rarity and item condition in order to let you recognize immediately these details.
Fixes
- 💎 Quest flow: you can now see Quest details in the Tavern even if you don’t have a Companion.
- 💎 Quest success probability: we tweaked the Companion success dials in the Quest screen to better estimate Peril and Opportunity success rate. Now if you see a full green dial, you can be sure your Companion will succeed in every single check, without needing a potion! This also means that you should be really careful when you see yellow and red dials… or bring a lot of Potions for your Companion!
- Steam Deck resolution: we disabled the possibility to choose a windowed resolution in the options menu when playing on Steam Deck. The game works simply great on Steam Deck, you should try it out!
That’s all for today’s update!
