Greetings and Salutations! Today marks the last of our weekly updates. Mike and I've talked it over, and we think we've got close enough to gold that's it's time to go head down and push for it.

  • Expanded happiness system: now dwarrow can be made unhappy by standing on unpleasant things; things like poop, blood, or Hawthorn Guernseys.

  • Expanded happiness system part deux: your colony's overall happiness can now be affected by public works, not just luxuries in individual homes
