addedLanguages:We’ve added more languages! Emberlands: Desktop Village now supports: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Traditional and Simplified Chinese!
changedBalancing:The prices for upgrading your village capacity as well as the Knack’s stats now get calculated in a kinder way, allowing you to upgrade them quicker, especially later in the game. We hope that this helps to keep you motivated, even when your village and Knack have already reached a higher level.
changedBalancing:Spawn more wood all over the screen - more to collect for your little Knack!
addedBuilding:Added loadout system. You can now create up to three different Village setups! Your Village level and resources will stay the same - this allows you to have an effective Village with high Ember output AND a pretty village at the same time! :)
changedLottery & Catalog:Slight change to the Village stat window. While pinned, it now stays interactable (previously, you had to hover over your Ember Tower for the Village stat window to activate).

Today’s update addresses some issues and suggestions that we received in the last week:

Languages:

  • We’ve added more languages! Emberlands: Desktop Village now supports:

    English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Traditional and Simplified Chinese!

Balancing:

  • The prices for upgrading your village capacity as well as the Knack’s stats now get calculated in a kinder way, allowing you to upgrade them quicker, especially later in the game. We hope that this helps to keep you motivated, even when your village and Knack have already reached a higher level.

  • Spawn more wood all over the screen - more to collect for your little Knack!

Building:

  • The buildable area is now bigger, giving you more freedom in the creation of your village. Whether you want a condensed tower - like village or spread out little islands - you choose, everything’s possible.

  • Added loadout system. You can now create up to three different Village setups! Your Village level and resources will stay the same - this allows you to have an effective Village with high Ember output AND a pretty village at the same time! :)

Lottery & Catalog:

  • Max Ticket cap at 50 - don’t let them get dusty, use those Tickets!

  • Slight change to the Village stat window. While pinned, it now stays interactable (previously, you had to hover over your Ember Tower for the Village stat window to activate).

  • Tickets can now also be used to upgrade your tiles. To show it while un-pinned, simply hover over your Ember Tower.

User Interface:

  • Fully upgraded tiles are now marked with a star in the Catalog.

  • The Village level is now visible.

  • World scaling allows you to make everything even smaller, for those of you who just want a tiny island at the side of their screen

  • You can now permanently set your favorite weather in the Settings - for those who are into eternal sunshine (or rain).

Hope you enjoy our first little update! 🙏🔥 And please keep the feedback coming! 😊
