I am happy to announce a new update - v1.4! This time I focused on making the game more customizable!

From now on - you can enable/disable features that affect the difficulty level of the game based on your personal preferences!

Let's take a look at the changelog:

Major changes

  • NewDifficulty levels added. The difficulty level is calculated based on the game modifiers players can choose when starting a new run (all of them in the next points)
  • NewConfigurable: Clickers - manual click on the production node and the multiclicker can be disabled/enabled now - it makes the game much easier, especially at the beginning.
  • NewConfigurable: Strict Kitchen - this option enables/disables the strict preprocessing requirements for the kitchen. If enabled - you have to provide resources processed in the order specified by the recipe. It makes the recipes more complicated.
  • NewConfigurable: 2x Buff range - if enabled - it will reverse the previous updates that make the buff range 2x smaller. The game is much easier to play this way.
  • NewConfigurable: Money Bags - they can be enabled or disabled now.
  • NewConfigurable: Global multiplier modifiers - I removed them in the previous update, but now they can be enabled or disabled. They are making the game MUCH easier if you have the reroll enabled too.
  • NewConfigurable: Rerolls - similar as above - they can be enabled or disabled now.
  • NewConfigurable: Eternal Hunger - it can be enabled or disabled now (eternal hunger means that the boss is eating provided resources over some time).
  • NewConfigurable: Harder Bosses - something new - bosses are much harder. They require more resources and consume resources faster if the "Eternal Hunger" is enabled. Very Hard - for more advanced players (if the Eternal Hunger is enabled).
  • NewConfigurable: Different Shapes - also something new - standard islands will appear in different shapes and sizes. A little harder game, but more interesting

Minor changes

  • Bugnode connection collision was not inconsistent - fixed
  • Bugoutdated connection colors removed (purple)
  • Bugone-way-road was broken after moving connected nodes in a specific way - fixed
  • ChangeThe number of available islands in the island shop increased to 9
  • Improvementhighlight the side if the neighboring nodes are not connected - can be disabled/enabled in the settings menu (disabled by default)
  • Change: All buffs/logic nodes can be placed on any type of terrain; roads can be placed anywhere but the hole - it was a little annoying in some cases that the player couldn't do it

  • ChangeThe black connections cannot be created anymore - they caused a lot of confusion for new players
  • Bugfixed missing translations

The default difficulty settings are set based on the previous game versions. When you start a new run, you can change whatever you like, so don't worry about broken saves/runs :)

Thank you all for your support and have fun! ByerN
