Hi adventurers,

The content for this update was quite easy to select, I just took the three most requested features from your feedback and added them to the game! So let me introduce you the Community Update :

• The most requested feature is definitely the ability to customize your heroes, so it's finally possible! You can now customize your starting crew and your new recruits, and I won't thank you for that, it was really painful to implement! But you were right, I'm really glad it's possible, as now I probably spend more time on the character creation screen than in the game...

• The second request is a major change, I added a combat auto resolve option! It was also tricky to implement, but now I'm using the heroes level, training, equipment and health data to simulate a combat and present you an outcome. And then you can choose to manually do the combat if needed. By default, you have the auto resolve option in the main map, but not in dungeons, and as always I added game options to change this behavior to what you prefer.

• Finally, the last feature added is the minimap! It's the kind of feature that once you tried it, you really start wondering how it was possible to play without it, so thanks a lot for requesting it!

Here's the complete changelog:

• Added a combat auto resolve option.

• Added the ability to enable or disable the auto resolve option for the main map and dungeons in the game settings.

• Added the ability to customize the look of the heroes in the crew creation screen.

• Added the ability to customize the look of the heroes in the recruit screen.

• Added the ability to display a minimap (with fog of war support if enabled).

A final note about reviews, last time I was quite happy that I mostly had positive ones recently, but since the last update I mostly received negative ones... So rest assured that I work hard to improve and solve the issues you report in reviews, but please, before posting a review, don't hesitate to reach out to me on the forums or with the in-game feedback system! Solving crashes or bugs is always my topmost priority, and I'm really sorry that you must face some, but by interacting with you I can actually most of the time easily fix those issues. And if you have balancing issues, it's actually the whole purpose of this early access and community driven development to improve it, so don't hesitate to start discussing it with me.

Hi adventurers,

I'll start this new update with a big thanks to all of you, I've been getting a lot of positive feedback lately and you can't imagine how motivating it is. I'm really happy to know that the work I'm putting in the game is being noticed and that you like it. And actually with this update, it's been almost one year since the early access release, and it has been quite busy for me. I've been able to produce 8 major updates (and countless patches), and I'm really proud of the current state of the game. I tend to believe that someone who tried the game at launch and try it again today will be pleasantly surprised by all the changes.

So now, here's some details on this one year anniversary update:

• First of all, I've been very lucky to work with a very talented composer to produce a whole new original soundtrack for the game. I'm so happy with the result as it brings so much to the game, and I really hope you'll enjoy it too.

• I added some colony automation features, you can now build specific golems to perform tasks like hauling, cutting plants, mining, etc... After adding trading expeditions and dungeon expeditions, it now allows you to keep the colony active while your heroes have other duties.

• To allow golems to work, I added a new magic energy system, requiring you to build a whole network to power all your colony. And I added some new furniture using this magic energy.

• And finally I continued to improve the game performances, and it allowed me to add a new very large map size (doubling the size of a large map). And I added teleportation portals (also using magic energy to work) to be able to facilitate navigation in big maps.

Here's the complete changelog:

• Added a new magic field layer produced by specific generators.

• Added magic fields relays to propagate magic fields to greater distances.

• Added teleportation portals only activated if inside a magic field.

• Added new music, and improved the music system to avoid repetitions and provide times without any music.

• Added golems limited to perform specific jobs and only able to walk within magic fields.

• Added very large maps and improved map generation time.

• Added light and heat sources powered by magic fields.

• Various performance optimizations.

As always, please don't hesitate to leave a review for the game if not already done, it helps so much with discoverability on Steam. And I'll probably be back on improving existing systems for the next update instead of adding new ones, so don't hesitate to let me know what you would like to see improved!

Hi adventurers,

• Fixed animation issues with orc and corrupted dwarf raids

Hi adventurers,

I'm glad to start 2026 with a new update: the Forge Update!

With it I'm introducing various improvements:

• A new dungeon, the forge, with new enemies and new loot. To experience it, you'll need to create a new save as spawning it on existing saves could have been a bit risky.

• I also improved the second dungeon, the cave, with new enemies and some balancing.

• And finally I added dungeon automatic expeditions. You can set them up when a curse is lifted on a dungeon, and let your adventurers go into the dungeon alone to bring resources.

I tried to have as little impact as possible on existing saves, but without the third dungeon you'll need to setup trading expeditions to retrieve its new resource (but so far it's not yet very useful).

Here's the complete changelog:

• Added a dungeon automatic expedition system.

• Integrated new enemies in the cave.

• Added Gems as a new resource.

• Now dungeon influence radius is dependant of the map size.

• Added a new dungeon.

• Balanced dungeon level values.

Next update should be in march, it will mark one year in early access and I'll try to make it a bit special! The new resource I introduced with this update should take a major part in it.

Hi adventurers,

No big update to finish the year, but instead I've been busy lately improving many different aspects of the game, so let me introduce you to the Quality of Life Updates!

Here are the main areas I've worked on:

• Chests: I've added quite a few different chest types since the last update, you can store food, potions (and directly equip or consume from the chest), herbs, runes and crafting materials. I also fixed a few issues with them and added some features like the ability to filter what you want to store per chest.

• UI & UX: you can finally reorder your heroes! And I also fixed how the escape key behaves, it will finally close the current action/menu instead of always opening the pause menu.

• Weapons and armors can be destroyed to retrieve runes! So now, you should be able to get rid of all objects by selling them with the trading boat or destroying them for weapons and armors. You're not stuck forever with objects you can't get rid of.

• I also tried to improve various other things, like adding some new traits, adding a harvest area to be more consistent with cut plants areas, replacing placeholder models, adding a heat insulation factor to walls, etc...

• Finally I worked a bit on optimizations, so don't hesitate to let me know if you're getting better performances or not!

Here's the complete changelog:

• Improved units reaction times when working

• Updated ballista arrow and catapult stone quantity per craft

• Raids won't attack walls anymore if other targets are available, they'll also prioritize gates or doors over simple walls

• Number of units needed for an expedition is now dependent of the expedition trading value

• Improved the Feedback menu

• Added a notification message when a resource can't be delivered to its destination

• Integrated a raw food shelf and a cooked food shelf

• Kitchen can now only be built indoor

• Improved Escap key management, it will now close menus or cancel current action before opening the pause menu.

• Added an herborist chest for herbs and mushrooms and a potions shelf

• Added the ability to cancel the direction selection in combat

• Added the ability to forbid some resource types in chests

• Improved skills menu readability

• Balancing on some resources stack sizes

• Added the ability to destroy weapons or armors with chances to retrieve runes from it (chances are based on the weapon/armor craft skill value)

• Added the ability to reorder heroes (right click on their portrait)

• Added the ability to set a priority on refill jobs

• Added tooltips with job stats descriptions

• Added traits modifying the initial inventory size for heroes

• Added traits influencing the HP retrieved from health potions

• Added a harvest areas and removed the auto harvest button (on existing saves, harvest areas will be automatically created when auto harvest was enabled on a plant)

• Added chests for looted materials and runes

• Integrated new statues and fountains models

• Walls now have a heat insulation factor

• Balanced mood values caused by cold

• Improved fortress walls corner management

• Blueprints can now be destroyed

• Various optimizations

• Fixed weapons trails not being displayed

• Fixed a potential crash with chests when saving

• Fixed an issue with gold chest quantity not properly updated when using gold to recruit new heroes (for existing saves, you'll need to rebuild or move the chest to fix the displayed quantity)

• Fixed an issue with units stopping to work because resources are impossible to deliver to their destination

• Fixed an issue preventing to open the expedition board

• Fixed an issue with the season time marker not being properly scaled

• Fixed an issue causing chests to be ignored if a save is done while they're empty

• Fixed an issue with plants not properly detected as destroyed during the winter

• Fixed an issue allowing to use armor runes as combat active abilities

• Fixed a potential crash when saving from a new game after loading a previous game with groups set.

• Fixed a potential crash when loading a game.

• Fixed an issue preventing heroes to rearm some siege weapons.

• Fixed an issue with combat traps being activated on allies if starting the turn on them

• Fixed the issue with dungeon loot spawning under the dungeon and not being accessible by heroes without reloading a game

• Fixed an issue with logs potentially blocking the UI

• Fixed a potential crash when trying to build on top of another construction

• Fixed a crash in combat when a taunted opponent has no possibility to approach the target

• Fixed a potential crash when moving a chest

• Fixed a potential crash when recruiting a new hero

In the process, I also added a few bugs and instabilities, I'm really sorry for that! But thanks to your continuous feedback I think it's quite stable and usable now. Don't hesitate to report anything you may still encounter and I should be able to fix it in the coming days.

I'll then take a break for the holidays, and I should be back next year with new content updates! Hopefully in the meantime I hope you'll enjoy the game, and please be sure to leave a review, it really helps a lot and it can make a big difference if I manage to reach 100 of them!

Thank you all and I wish you happy holidays!
