Dig or Die news & patch notes

Hi everyone! It has been a long time, but it's finally there: Dig or Die is released today on consoles. The port was made by Blitworks Games (they have previously ported They Are Billions, Spelunky 2, Train Valley... very talented studio !). I hope this port will let new players discover Dig or Die, and propose a new and nice way to play the game. Dig or Die on Playstation Dig or Die on Xbox As for myself, I still work on Plan B: Terraform, currently on Early Access. But I hope to be able to come back on the Dig or Die universe after! Lot of thinking and discussions going on about it. And if enough success, this console port will help me fund it. Here is a new trailer that was made for the occasion:

This minor update just changes some musics to avoid some copyright issues with youtube videos of the game. Detailed explanation: all musics had the appropriate licence to be used in the game, but not to be uploaded and monetized by youtubers playing the game. So I purchased some alternate versions with this specific licence extension. Concerned musics are a few day musics, and the new alternate version is very similar.

The demo will be live until february 13th, and two days later the Early Access will start. I hope you'll enjoy the game :-) More info : https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1894430/view/3677786186794639633

Very small fix to update the broken discord links. As last build was a very long time ago, if you see anything broken, please contact me ! (on the forum or on my discord : https://discord.com/invite/gaddygames , where you can discuss Dig or Die and my new game Plan B: Terraform )

Hello everyone! My new project is finally ready to be presented: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1894430/Plan_B_Terraform/ Plan B: Terraform is about colonizing and terraforming a newly discovered planet. You'll mine resources, process and transport them to the cities to grow your population, but also terraform your planet to make it inhabitable: warm up the atmosphere, form rivers, oceans and grow forests. If you think it's interesting, I hope you'll wishlist it as it would help a lot! Now about the Dig or Die future, I keep noting ideas and thinking about what would be interesting to explore. I'll continue to do that while i'm 100% focused on Plan B, and we'll what comes after :-)

Hello everyone! First, about Dig or Die discounts: I'll try to increase the discount by 5% every six months (-30% at last winter sales, 35% for next summer sales, etc). And so I just set up week long discount at -32%. Now, what about Dig or Die future? Thousands of things could be improved and added to the game, but I cannot seriously work on two games at the same time. So after working for 5 years on this game (and 4 years since early access), I have chosen to work on my new project. If you know of a company that would like to take over Dig or Die and continue its updates, and/or port it to console, please let me know. I might make a mistake... but I think that I really have to develop this new game, that its concept is worth it. It's too early to present it, except to say that it will be very different from Dig or Die (another game genre). But if you like innovative and unique games I think that when I explain its concept you'll agree with me that it's worth it. Now my task is to manage to make it, and make it fun and nice to play! And this time I'll not be alone, as I've hired an artist that will work full time with me on the project! And there will also be an original sountrack for the game. Now I go back to work... I'm so eager to progress and present it to you! :-)

Here is a small update I just released, mostly to fix a few issues. Thanks again to all of you for your support and appreciation of my game :-) Now I go back to work on my new project!

v1.11 (Build 858)

General - Added recipes for crafting Stone, Granite and Lightweight Rock - Changed ingame discord links to the language-specific discord channels when appropriate Bug Fix - Fixed bug that prevented client to place a backwall over an item - Fixed bug that paused the organic rock during 10s after a reload - Fixed "/find" to avoid returning positions outside of the visible world - Fixed <1% lava quantity that didn't burnt wall (but damaged player) - Fixed lava plants that could burn when in fire - /killme now works on clients - Explosive screen shaking now on clients too Balance - Added flashlight in creative/epilogue mode Minor - Updated "/clearkills" help

This update brings new arts and animations for all monsters, new items, various tools and commands for map edition, and a lot of bug fixes and improvements. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/770d1f3417cf1c00d98145589f961604e4d27872.png New edition tools are detailed in this wiki page: https://digordie.gamepedia.com/Modding_and_Mapping. Don't hesitate to complete it, or post a link to your own custom maps. I'll now start working on a new game, and stop updating Dig or Die but for bug fixes or minor improvements. I'm not sure yet what I'll do next with Dig or Die as there are so much to do... hire a developer to work on it? find a partnership with another studio to continue it and port it to consoles (if you are one, contact me!)? Wait for some hypothetical Dig or Die 2 in order to change the game features in depth? I don't know yet. As for my next game, it will be totally different from Dig or Die. I can't be sure if I'll manage to do something great, but I do think you'll find it very interesting, and really worth to work on it! I'll post something about it when it's time, but if you want to be sure not to miss it, register to my little mailing list (no spam, something like 1 mail per year): http://eepurl.com/cIQ0VD Thanks again to all of you for your support during those last few years!

Major v1.1 update will soon be ready! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/c1f52b35303864b924e35e87d6e79f5cd1d81e2c.gif Today I uploaded on the beta branch a version with two of the major v1.1 features: - New arts and animations for all monsters and bosses! You can already see most of them in the beta version (still work in progress however) - Tools to help players to create or customize a map: a "dev mode" param to get full invincibility, fast travel and no collision ; a param to make monsters spawn dynamically depending of the surrounding mineral backgrounds ; and various other commands and params (Here is the wiki page to explain them: https://digordie.gamepedia.com/Modding_and_Mapping ). V1.1 will also have a lot of balance, some new items (not yet done), a minimap zoom, and various bug fixes It will probably be the last major update of the game for some time, as after this one i'll start working on a new game. I'll see if I can find some partnership, or hire a developer to continue major updates for Dig or Die. If not, I'll work only on bug fixes and minor improvements for Dig or Die, and focus mostly on my next game (which will not be Dig or Die 2, at all)

This update should improve your experience in multiplayer: for late-joining clients (they will get same weapons & devices than host) and for better managing bad behaviors (easy kick & ban, and if banned host get its inventory). It should also improve low-framerate experience with the volcano lava cycle & eruption and jumping down platforms bug fix. Also, Base Defense mode is now really (really) challenging in late game. I'll now start working on the v1.1 update. More news about it soon. And remember about the Eiffel Tower Building Contest, it ends tomorrow!

v1.03 (Build 814)

General - Joining clients (first-time) automatically get the host devices & weapons (param m_clientGetHostItems) - Banned players give all their item to host (param m_banGiveLootToHost) - Kick & Ban buttons in the players list window, for host. Add a "players" button to open this window (Tab key shortcut). - Volcano: skip a lava up/down cycle if lava didn't have time to go away when cycle should start. An "*" is then written next to the lava pressure in the F4 debug. - Dynamic balance of the volcan eruption "lava volume", in order to avoid mass lava flooding & ocean drying, and lava not coming out: * reduce the eruption duration (600s=>500s) * extends its duration dynamically if lava didn't rich the top (up to 800s). Add two params for that. * modification of the layout of the bottom-side chimneys, to make the lava coming out slowlier (on new worlds) * modification of the layout of the top-side chimneys, to make less rain entering the boss lair (on new worlds) Bug Fix - Fix bug with teleporter UI (when removing an active teleporter) - Fix "load" button in main menu locked in some situation (if no multi (or custom) save, and quitting a multi (or custom) game) - Fixed bug that prevented to jump down from a platform when very low framerate Balance - Base Defense mode: after 33 nights, when there is no more monsters to spawn, monsters gain 10% of HP & damage every night - particle turrets projectiles don't go through (that was never intended) - Balance: Flame-thrower turrets more resistant (400 hp instead of 250) - Plasma Sniper Rifle damage increased from 35 to 45 - ZF-0 gun unlocks target if fired with shift key pressed Minor - Update items description and help (no need for devices to be placed in the items bar) - Add params m_speedSimu and m_speedSimuWorld to modify the simulation & world (liquids) simulation speeds - Improve/fix fps debug: show framerate, then the ratio between the game time speed and the real time speed, and then the ratio between the world simulation (especially liquids) time speed and the game time speed. Add a param to lock the game/world ratio (if low framerate, the framerate will be even lower, but liquids will run at the normal speed compared to the player movement and day duration).

Here is a little building contest for fun! You have one month, until September 26th, to build the highest possible tower. Winner will get 3 keys of the game as a little reward, 2nd and 3rd one key, that you can offer to family or friends https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/e9464a2fd1811632da94a7675264182164aaff41.png Really bad example of a tower Here are the rules: - Use this map: http://gaddygames.com/games/DigOrDie/divers/Eiffel%20Tower%20Contest%20v4.save download it and copy it into your Dig or Die save directory, which should be something like that: C:\Users\\Documents\Dig or Die\\Saves\Solo ). - Use only the blocks you have in your inventory. Of course don't change the params or anything like that - You can anchor your tower only to the 4 rock anchor poitns on each side, as you can see in my example above. Do not anchor on the 10/20/etc. marks in the sky! - Post the screenshot of the top of your tower in the forum ( https://steamcommunity.com/app/315460/discussions/0/1734336452590368352/ ), and at the end the best one will send me their map so I can check it works well. I'll then put them public for everyone to download them and admire the Master Builder :-)

*** EDIT on 2018/08/27 ***

As you might have seen, I've modified the contest (the file changed): the walls to use are now low-tech walls (the concrete ones, iron support and wood walls). The previous hi-tech contest is still valid, winners will get keys if they wish ; but the results were already far, far too high (130+), that wasn't very fun to build anymore. That's why I changed to low-tech walls, it will give much smaller towers but more fun and easy to build. I'm very sorry for this change but I don't think it's really fun to play with the very special game physics that happens when you build at those huge heights Good luck! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/413ec071e9e6ebd92f347b21f52f8d66ad4ad522.jpg

This update is now live! Most interesting change is the hydroelectric generators: their power limit has been increased from 5kw to 50kw! If you can manage to get enough water pressure, you'll be able to produce much more electricity than before with one single generator. Another thing is the Sun Lamp, which has a far greater range than before. So don't hesitate to use it to create large plants farms! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/d75254475c4b2bd92c733e741a30fb80cf4eeae6.pngHere you an do a generator producing 14kW I also did a lot of balancing. Most important is the weapon heating: your firerate will drop more now if you heat your weapons too much ; by firing constantly. The heating feedback on cursor is more visible now. This way player should be able to better understand the system and actually improve their DPS Also some changes on Metal Detector (range x2 !), zf-0 (use it!), flamethrower (burn them all!), plasma gatling, and on various recipes. If you like the building physics, be sure to check the next announcement (probably tomorrow) as I'll launch a little Eiffel Tower building contest :-)

v1.02 (Build 803)

General - Hydroelectricity Generators: generate up to 50kW (with very high pressure of water). Generators start working with a lower delta pressure (2) - Sun lamps: far, far greater range (1 lamp every 22 horizontal spaces if lamp is at a height of 5) - Add traditional Chinese localization Bug Fix - Fixed respawn position bug - Fixed pumps & generator, they don't transform lava into water anymore - Fix non-go-through bullets that were hitting several monsters (if hit in same frame) - Fixed passive items that were all toggle on at player respawn - Fixed cheat on multiplayer with clients recipes - Fixed chat that opened when pressing enter from pause menus Balance - Increase max heating of weapons from 1.2 to 2 (less efficient if player never let them cool off). Heating more visible in cursor (1 circle from 0 to 1 heating, 2nd circle from 1 to 2) - Change Heating for weapons (no more maximum, but prevent shooting if heating > 1.6). Heating cursor reskin - Metal detector: detector at a distance of 100 instead of 50 - ZF0: don't hit other monsters when a target is locked (don't change target) - Plasma Machine Gun cooldown reduced from 1.2 to 1.1, priced reduced (3 => 2 light gems) - Increase flame damages to monsters (10 instead of 6, every 0.7s). Lava damages too (30 if little lava, 50 if a lot) - flamethrower damage from 10 to 12 - Death Pulse Turret range area narrower - Electrified Spiked price reduced: Radioactive Blood x20 => x10 - Lighting mine price reduced: Aluminum x3 => x2, Coal x8 => x5, Radioactive Blood x20 => x10 - Effeil Glasses cost reduced: 3 aluminum and 3 light gems => 3 iron and 2 bat sonars, and in Tier 2 instead of Tier 3 (so it can be used to build the bridge) - Minimapper cost slightly modified: Bat Sonar x3 and Rad. Blood x10 => Bat sonar x2 and Light Gem x1 Minor - Mineral recipes : add Iron & Gas Rock ; all plants now used in recipes - F4 now display the framerate, and a debug value about the world (liquids) simulation speed ratio - Coral plant a bit more visible in water - Show game visibility (public, friends, private) in F4 debug

Here is a first minor update for the game since its launch. The most useful change is the toggeable items now active from inventory - it should give you a lot more useful space in the items bar. The vegetation process update should also help the plants to grow back easier and faster, and avoid getting the world slowly becoming all dead in the areas that were digged a lot. Finally, a few weapons balance change should make the ZF-0 (and the Sniper & Storm guns) much more efficient.

v1.01 (Build 793)

General - Toggeable items (armor, light, etc.) are active from the inventory, no need to put them in the items bar anymore. Green/red indicator visible in inventory ; right-click to activate/deactivate them. - Add Italian localization - Vegetation more dynamic and alive: dirt tiles infiltrated with water keep some of it. Plants drink less water. Dead plants & trees fall faster (so new plants can grow) - Improve checks for missing minerals at map loading (some minerals are added if they are missing from the map, or have been all mined). Bug Fix - Fix random generator number in multiplayer (each player will get regular monster drops, instead of a regular average of drops for all players) - Fix Delay Gate - Fix Rare Metal Detector, doesn't detect metal just outside the word boundaries anymore - Fix Storm Gun stopping making water in some situations - Fix the post "Lucky Day" drop rate - Fix crash if we load a solo game in multiplayer (by moving the save file - now ok) - Fix freeze as multiplayer client if joining a game when the rocket countdown is alredy on ; or if client is far away from the rocket when built - Fix water/lava huge pressure sync in multiplayer (when params are changed) - Fix a water sync issue (especially when host remove water by placing/removing a wall) Balance - Sniper Rifle does more damage (30=>35), ZF-0 heats much more slowly (0.02=>0.01), Storm Gun does more damage (55=>65) Minor - 5 auto-save files in loop instead of 3 - Steam notification moved in the bottom left corner - Update Fr, En localization

The game was released yesterday, and it got an amazing reception! Even better than the Early Access launch, all records have been broken :-) I'll try to be worthy of your trust, and to offer you someday something even better, a completely new experience - and that will be entirely thanks to all of you. About the future of Dig or Die, as I explained in the forum I don't know yet how things will go. There is so much to add (modding !), and I have also this new game concept I really want to develop. So best solutions could be to hire someone to continue update the game (I work alone for now), or find a partnership with another studio... That might be also a way to port the game to console. I'll keep you updated! But first step is to fix the game issues, so here is a first little hot fix about issues some people got with the the volcano eruption from the Hazardous Events. I've removed it temporary from those events, until I fix it properly - but the normal eruption you discover later in the game is still there! I'll update this post if/when I have to do other hot fixes. So of course don't hesitate to give feedback on the forum if you see any problem!

v1.0 (Build 785) HOT FIX

- Temporary remove the Volcano Eruption from the Hazardous Events in Solo/Multiplayer game modes - Deactivate the volcano eruption (triggered by basalt destruction) in Base Defense mode that was destroying everything - Reduce the Meteor Shower damages (but still high enough!)

After 3 years of Early Access, the game is finally complete! To all of the Early Access supporters, I'll never thank you enough. You made my Indie Dev dream come true ; thanks to you I was able to work full time on the game for those last years and to develop much more content than initially planned. To all future players, I hope you'll enjoy the game and what I tried to do with it. Too much emotion for me, so let's go straight to the v1.0 feature list:

v1.0 (Build 784):

3 new game modes: - Under the Sea: Players start in a cave located under a huge ocean of 300 blocks high, with a huge water pressure. Ideal for exploring a new world full of surprises, and / or having fun with the water physics engine. - Sky World: A world composed of hundreds of flying islands, procedurally generated, offering high replayability value. - Base Defense: This is a tower defense inspired mode. No exploration here, players only build a base and defend it against the successive waves of attacks. Creative Mode option with: - All items free, cheated weapons and armour (those ones were already in "post game" mode). - Dimensional Brush: to modify terrain & minerals as you wish (press shift for bigger area) - Water / Lava / Sponge Pistol: to generate (or absorb) water and lava. Be careful! (press shift for more!) - Monster Gun: spawn monsters and boss at will (press shift for them being aggressive) - Plan Gun (that I like to call "Totoro gun"): anything that could grow in certain conditions will grow instantly (press shift for bigger area) Hazardous Events option, to trigger random events about 1 time a day: - Heat Wave: no rain, fast evaporation, some plants spontaneously burn. - Rain Flood: massive rain flood. - Meteor Shower: meteor falling from the sky and destroying everything... have fun! - Volcano eruptions. - Earthquake: increases all structures' weight. - Restless Night: more monsters (occurs only at night). - Quiet Night: no monsters (occurs only at night). - Gravitational Waves: a very rare stars alignment lowers the gravity (jump higher, buildings stronger). - Acidic Water: water and rain turns into acid (green color, and damage to players). - Drowsiness: all monsters move slowly. - Mating Season: monsters aggro distance is increased a lot, and they move fast. - Lucky Day: monsters drop every time. Crital hit for players at every shot. - Sun Eclipse: instant night during the day (with monsters attacks). - Mist: lights range are reduced, day darker, screen is grayed out. - Electromagnetic disturbances: electric system shuts down. - Sharkstorm: combination of Flood + raining sharks :-) Soundtrack: 9 new tracks ______________________________________________________________ All previous saved games (since v0.3) are compatible. You can also activate Hazardous Events on a previous save by using console commands. If you wish to discuss about those new features, best is to use this forum topic: https://steamcommunity.com/app/315460/discussions/0/1727575977597731961/ In addition to those major v1.0 features, there is also the v0.99 pre-release I published about a month ago in order to be tested as best as possible before release.

v0.99 most important features:

- New music dynamic system: musics change depending of the "tension" of the current situation and other various specificities - New console commands: /event (to launch an event), /find (to find an item on the map), /music - Picked up items displayed in console. Bosses loot now auto-picked. - Players now respawn near the autobuilder (and never inside a block) - Improved pathfinding for monsters and drone - Heavy changes in plants life conditions - Various balance on drone, shield, crush damage, water evaporation, etc. - Various bug fixes and minor improvements The full change log is in this announcement: https://steamcommunity.com/games/315460/announcements/detail/1653264230330850584 ______________________________________________________________ And here are the change that were released those last few weeks, since this v0.99:

Changes since v0.99 release:

General - Full localization in: English, Dutch, French, German, Korean, Polish, Portuguese-Brazil, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Japanese - New achievments (auto-builder progress) - Drag & Drop items from your inventory directly to another player or its name (even if he is far away) - Add a proximity sensor (detect monster or players in the cell) - F4 mode to show a lot of information in creative mode: quantity of water, exact light, forces, content HP, achievement infos (and a few infos in normal mode) - Improve & optimize the spawning repartition of monsters: better take into account stucked monsters in order to better spawn monsters (species and position that let monster reach the player) Bug Fix - Fixed various bugs within the Hazardous Events and the Creative Mode tools - Hide UI fix: reactivate menu buttons, hide console texts - Fix language of system texts, if the host/client has a different language than your one - Fix bug that prevented monsters to go through platforms in some situations - No Peaceful difficulty in Base Defense mode - Fixed Fire & Miniaturizor input option modification (now works) - Fix issues with AI sentences Balance - Rocket Launcher: reduced push force, increased cooldown and damage - ZF-0: additional damages on time when locked on an ennemy (from 7 to 12, +1 every 5 hits) - Drone: goes faster, do not attack species that player didn't kill yet, reduced cost (10=>2 gold for drone, 10=>6 gold for combat drone, 10=>6 gold and 5->4 thorium for war drone) - Meteors do much more damage, less in water - Water pump modification (no more Perpetual Motion) - Sun lamps, teleport and Storm gun light emission slightly modified to prevent self-generating sun lamp + solar panel - Base defense balance: start game earlier in the day, prices of MK2+ much higher (even more for repair turret, no increase for electricity items). More water, hydroelectric generation should be easier.

Here is the new trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmYM2GWENAU The game will be released on July 10, and as said previously it will contain 3 new custom modes, the hazardous environment option, new musics and a creative mode. You might have noticed some updates for the game: that's because until release I'll regularly publish updates so the main and beta versions are as close as possible, to avoid unexpected launch bugs. I've updated the change log at the end of the previous announcement here : https://steamcommunity.com/games/315460/announcements/detail/1653264230330850584 And I've still a few things to add before release. If you wish to play the v1.0 feature already, simply activate the beta branch

(EDIT: Until the release on July 10th, I'll release several minor updates so they are tested as best as possible before release. I'll update the change log below) This update is a "pre-release" one, with a lot of minor/medium changes (see the list below), but without the main new content that will stay locked until the v1.0 release on July 10th: - Custom modes (Under the Sea, Sky World, Base Defense) - Hazardous Environments option - 9 new musics - Creative mode option, with a new brush tool If you wish to play those features right now, simply activate the public "beta" branch! And as I said, the price is now set to $/€ 12. So if you wish to buy the game, it may be better to wait for the -10% launch sale launch sale (but don't forget, ok? :D). Here are the changes. All v0.35 saves games are compatible. The main objective of this update is to help me fix as many problems as possile before the final release, so please if you see any bugs, please tell me in the forum!

Finally - and after far too much time in Early Access - the game will be released on July 10th! It has been a long journey, but thanks to your incredible support it was a dream come true for me as an indie developer. In order to test the game as best as possible before the release date, I'll push next week a v0.99 version. This version will be the same as the one currently in the beta branch, but without the big new v1.0 content (3 new game modes, hazardous environment option, and new musics) that I'll keep for the official release date. But it will have all the little improvements and bug fixes done since the v0.35 (and there are a lot!), and technically it will be the same code as the beta, which will help me a lot to fix any big issue before the release, and do the remaining improvements to the game. As planned since the v0.06, the final price will be increased to $12 (now $10). But in order to be able to create a launch sale of -10% (as Steam requires at least one month between a price increase and a sale), I'll set this final price before the release, when I release this v0.99 next week. This will also help me to avoid confusion while communicating about the release, as the final price will be already set.

In short: around May 24th, the price will be increased to $12. So, if you think about buying the game, I suggest you to either buy it now, or to wait for the v1.0 release on July 10th to enjoy the launch sale.

Of course during that time you'll still be able to play the full v1.0 current content by activating the public beta branch.

Sky World being finished, i'm now working on the Under The Sea mode: http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/a964fbec11160c57984139619bf28a7820bfc03a.png http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/d35ab5491d7ad67a0384c72ca5212c880f0f4c93.png You'll start in a cavern located under a huge ocean. As you can see in the second picture, the ocean will be ~330 block deep! If you like playing with water physics, I think you should enjoy this one. Contrary to the Sky World mode, this mode doesn't have too much randomness, I tried to design an interesting progression and discovering of the world. So in order to preserve the gaming experience, i'll wait for it to be complete before adding it to the beta branch. That shouldn't be long now, as the world is almost complete. I just have to define the monsters/bosses locations and add a few surprises...

A first version of the Sky World mode is now playable on the Beta branch. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/43398f1b8c57756984048db7fc4d337046e48c3d.png (As a reminder, the Sky World mode is a world with various floating islands, with a lot of randomness. Each world will be very different, you won't have any idea of which direction is best to explore) It's still very early, the game cannot yet be finished with it (missing bosses and ores, etc.), but don't hesitate to try it if you whish to help me build it. I'm especially interested by suggestions about some new zone layouts (shape of islands + ore placement + monsters). And also by a question about the plants life conditions (especially the altitude one) ; should I keep the default game ones or modify them? Here is the best place to discuss about it: http://steamcommunity.com/app/315460/discussions/0/1489987634005238608 Also, I realized there was a setup isssue with the cloud - it's now properly activated (on defaut branch too).

I've just finished a big part of the v1.0 release version: the hazardous environment option. http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/7977609/114205d8b78d9d053fb4c3c77f14210b80bf01cf.png"Sharknado" event: not only water falls from the sky! Here is the full list of the events names : Heat Wave, Rain Flood, Meteor Shower, Volcano eruption, Earthquake, Restless Night, Quiet Night, Planetary Alignment, Aciditic Water, Drowsiness, Mating Season, Lucky Day, Sun Eclipse, Mist, Electromagnetic disturbances, and Sharknado. Those events are not very well polished, they are not very realistic... but they are fun, and I think that's something that was really missing in the game. To know more about the events, you can follow the v1.0 topic on the forum : http://steamcommunity.com/app/315460/discussions/0/1489987634005238608/ or simply play the game on the beta branch, as I upload versions very regularly. Then you can create a new game with the option activated, and you'll get one random event about every 1 or 2 days. You can activate the option in your old game by modifiying the m_eventsActive custom param. Or you can trigger any event directy with the /event command.

Now my task is to add the real new content of the v1.0, and that's going to be fun! First, there will be a few game modes that have been discussed in the forum. If I have enough time, I hope to do those four ones: "Sky World" (a very random world layout), "Under the sea" (you start in a cavern under a huge ocean), "Tower Defense" (build a base to survive as long as possible, with regular income), and an "Editor Mode" that will give you a little more options than the current post-game mode. But I'll also add another feature that wasn't planned at all, but should add a lot of interest to the game: a "Hazardous Environment" game option! It will be available for every mode (and for existing games too, with the /param command). This option will add some catastrophic events every day: massive flood, meteor shower, water turning acid, etc. I can't wait to do it... and try it! As planned, the final v1.0 will increase the game price to its final $12. And as for the previous major updates, you'll be able to try the changes in the Beta branch while i develop them (and help me find the issues!) About this minor v0.35 update, here is the change log. I'll most probably upload some minor fixes and balance builds, as some changes have not been tested very well. So don't hesitate to give me any feedback about the changes - especially the new Demon attack!
