Devlog:

A lesson I've learned recently is that always read changelogs. I usually keep the game's libraries up-to-date. However, during an update, the library (Electron) dropped support for Windows 7/8/8.1. It broke several players who are still using older Windows versions. I've downgraded to the last version that supports Windows 7/8/8.1.

Industry Idle is in a good state - most bugs have been ironed out and the game is quite balanced - I feel it's time to leave early access and call it 1.0 - this should be just a matter of changing the version number and I plan to do it in the next update.

Regarding CivIdle, I am doing final testing myself before the next playtest: fixing game-breaking bugs, and soft locks, and balancing the game a bit. If you are interested in joining the playtest, head over to our Discord and join #cividle-general channel, leave a message saying that you are interested and I will start distributing keys once the game is ready.

Meanwhile, I've recorded a CivIdle overview video, enjoy!
