Repeated intro

Hello folks, it's been about a month since we announced our Development Roadmap and since then we've been working hard on delivering on the promised updates. One of the things that players have been asking for the most is more variety and more content. We are delivering on that today.

addedWhen we started working on a New Scenario, we went a bit beyond the initial scope that we gave ourselves. As such, a potential new Scenario became a fully fledged New Mode that we're calling Forging a Realm.
addedIn this brand new game mode, you're a newly crowned Ruler, attempting to meet the demands of the people or risk being overthrown. We decided to call it a new "Game Mode" to differentiate it from the other scenarios, since it plays in a radically different way, offering a more economic-centric style of gameplay for folks who enjoy that aspect of the game more. We plan to expand this new mode with dedicated and more varied Scenarios and with potential new additions to its gameplay.

Changelog

New Game Mode: Forging a Realm

  • Added a new Game Mode called "Forging a Realm" which unlocks after surviving the first winter (the mode is already unlocked for people who already finished the game at least once).

  • In Forging a Realm, the Player is a newly appointed leader that has to deal with the various Demands from the people.

  • Demands have a timer associated with them. Succeeding in solving the various Demands before their timer expires will build Confidence. Failing will mean getting overthrown.

  • Demands can be completed from a new Demands Panel, available on the top left of the screen.

  • Completing a Demand rapidly will generate more Confidence.

  • The various difficulty levels control how many times the player can fail in meeting Demands, the difficulty of Demands and how much Confidence is needed to win.

  • The map generation algorithm is unique for this map. Opportunities have less durability. The Others are absent. Bandit Encampments offer some resistance.

  • Memories unlock in this mode after completing it at least once.

  • We are considering adding more Demand types for future updates.

  • Only one Scenario is currently available. More Scenarios for "Forging a Realm" will come in a future update.

  • The "previous" Game Mode is now called "Escaping Fate".

  • Anything revolving around the "True Ending" of the game is absent in the Forging a Realm mode.

Camera Improvements

  • Added "Camera Bookmarks" akin to some RTS games.

  • By default you can press CTRL+F1-F5 to save up to 5 camera locations and recall them by pressing F1-F5.

  • Camera Bookmarks are shown on the Minimap and can be removed by right-clicking on them.

  • Added a "Camera Lean" feature which trucks the camera left or right by pressing either A or D.

  • The intensity of the Camera Lean can be controlled in the options.

Dice Shells

  • Construct Dice can now have different kinds of Dice Shells.

  • Each Dice Shell has a requirement to be available for a certain Die.

  • Dice Shells can change in-game as a result of using the Forge or the Laboratory. Each Shell has a different probability of appearing in-game.
