Pushcart

Invented during Bronze Age 1. This carry more weight than a sled and will cost less stamina to run with. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/351f337f5e8f7edfbfba32d6990a28c2c0877d12.png

Pull Cart

Invented during Iron Age 1. Heavier than pushcart, but more efficient for heavy items, and can take 6 items. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/858210c7c19951c2cf6b7daa78417dadf0e4283d.png

Kirisaur

During Iron Age 3, you can find strange egg that has lied buried in the desert sands for millennia. Once hatched you will have a loyal riding pet. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/15479a99f125cec8f624da745afba10399607b23.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/c8c089d206473d1555f9e18ba3ab852170a8639f.png You can ride the Kirisaur once it reaches adulthood and has a saddle. The passenger can hunt from the kirisaur back, and will have higher range compared to when standing on the ground. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/69298f7806198c605a4a9e2490b589f3c1f33fea.png You can also use a Kirisaur as a pack animal, instead of riding it. It can then carry up to 20 items! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/162ecb9131e0109edc3c4cfc3c5548564e1c749c.png Feed your Kirisaur spikefruits to keep it happy (and alive!). It will follow the person who fed it last, but only until it grows hungry again. If you put blinders on a Kirisaur, it will believe that it is night and fall asleep. Once asleep it won't move around. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/4fbfb613450712a10f725caf30fa79610c41dbd0.png You can also get Tomahawk Steaks from dead Kirisaurs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0a8d94ac5602f7c1aad55b104470cfc7fa951c7e.png

New Mechanism:

Running will consume more stamina when you carry heavy items, and less when you do not (both compared to previous release). Use backpacks, sleds and carts to make the stamina use less. Walking is still not costing any stamina, even if you carry heavy items.

Other Updates

Kirisaur Mask {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/4755cbf3d083fd233bb55241bd4fbffc642fd8e9.png New container: Bucket {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f0222af3a6f5aafb32ff516b0a484e6d2b422e5a.png Evo Oil: can be used to revitalize Kirisaur egg. Also now evo oil is required for Spiked Milk. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0114a2e646878ca1f8fb1dda8bf7ae56470173b8.png You can now grow moringa trees. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/c684ecdb3b3e2e55300927a1843a69da67149e96.png

Missions

Missions are no longer mandatory. They give rewards that accelerate your tech research, but you don't have to complete missions to advance {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/12047dd933e9c416c31b11090d97081f6cdd479b.png Some missions have a timer on them now. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/bd1573175c527c8cb3f6ae9c7ee21db612d692e3.png

New Tech Tree System

You show/hide the new tech tree by pressing this button: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/265ddc6805f4563b2b381a5cd05ef00b5388d7b5.png Now each stage has its own tech tree, which must be completed in order to get to the next stage. Every tech discovery unlocks new craftable objects. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/de23790956c88fe32a43b967bd358ef7e507a3a2.png Researching tech is done by earning 3 types of points: Survival, Prosperity, Culture. These are earned by using your skills and by completing missions. You can see in the ICB what type of points are given for each object you can craft. Tribes on Hard and Master difficulties will earn points faster than tribes on Normal difficulty mode. when you fail with a skill, you still gain research points. 3 types of mission points: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2b7b759ccae46c93511470a273285e2fc81a38b9.png -Survival points are earned through Gathering, Firestarting, Hunting, Butchering {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/7e0ab3accf9872754ba2d86422e379ab4909fd2c.png -Prosperity points come from Toolmaking, Bronze Working, Blacksmithing, Farming, Mining, Forestry, Husbandry {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/35a7a24117907b6430bc5e3084296262b84d657f.png -Culture is earned by Building, Cooking, Pottery, Sewing, Weaving, Woodworking Note that when growing food, the digging and planting work is Farming, but picking the grown fruit (etc) is Gathering, so there will be both prosperity and survival points gained. Every player can choose which technology to research next, by just clicking on it {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/82b29a684543ba5ca401122590074ce9b9a1897b.png You can see what everyone is working on here. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0eb60d55ed21e8acd7a9b72fe8a89660691be396.png If a player earns points of a category that is not needed for the research the player is currently focusing on, then the unused points will be kept here. Any player can use these points for other discoveries. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/13c3adf7cdf51d3d35ee9a3a57297b4aa1fcc2ec.png When a tribe has completed Iron Age 2, it will now enter a Bonus Age. If you complete Bonus Age, Stage 1, there will be a Stage 2, and so on. Missions will appear during the Bonus Age as well, so there will always be ways to earn extra points if you like. It also shows in the tribe selection gui. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2fc2d80f45ea8f2335a7162bcc71d8ccaa28749d.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/c5247e519a4d3feaf9182dfac4e53b7e04e5857f.png

New missions

There are more than 100 new missions added in this update.If you want more paralell missions, make sure to have some Elders in your tribe (age 50+), since this will add to the max number of active missions. Remember that you need to eat different foods to increase your lifespan beyond 50 years.

Fewer Predators In Early Stages

Howlers and death-claws will not appear in stone age 1&2, but will appear when those have been completed.

Other Improvements

-Natural anvils can be made by cutting down the rock now (you can choose either making an anvil or getting the loose rocks for ores). Before you had to looks for the specific rock which turns to be an anvil but now it became easier to find a natural anvil. -Vertical and horizontal walls, doors, etc... are now counted together, so you can mix building vertical and horizontal versions when fulfilling mission goals. -Made cut trees heal over time -Made it possible to get tanning bark from the tanning tree, even if there's a cut in tree. -Changed the cooldown time to regain stamina. -Increased the effect of stamina power-ups

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f8903bf1e0eae6f0f24f3efcbc1fa6d20276c0a8.png

God of Wealth

The God of Wealth is like the Santa of Chinese New Years, he brings good wealth to all who welcome him. And now he will visit players to bring wealth to all tribes. The God of Wealth will only visit your tribe in Stone Age 6 or later, And once he visits it will take 60 minutes before he will be ready to come visit again. When it's time for him to visit, a tribe member must use burning bamboo crackers to guide him to the tribe. If no one does this he will think no one lives here and leave. When a bamboo is burning he will appear close to a cairn on the map, looking for players. When you offer him a dumpling, he will bless you with a gift. He will bless each player with one gift per visit only. He will leave after five minutes or once all players have received their gifts. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fb9ef456e2d012968b63ec2f38a58576a0624d4b.png

Dumplings

Dumplings are a new food that can be made starting from Stone Age 6, and there is a special one that can be made in Bronze Age 4. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/40a21cca7695ee3696afb95aaab1fdc7c6033825.png

Fire crackers

Sparklers

A fun and beautiful firecracker to play with at events. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/67a0fccfa5a54158848087989906c35b399d15c1.png

Spring Couplets

A set of spring couplets that has writings about family harmony, and one for good fortune. You can use these to decorate your door and walls. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/140fdbd1961f7158311c3c4e0a9a19752df5d3f9.png

Chinese Knot

A decoration you can Receive from The God of Wealth, you can hang it on the wall. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/11db7f92aaf4d7b209f8c3a01f1d64099bafa8e5.png

Red Envelopes

One of the gifts from the God of Wealth is a red envelope, it contains 10 spirit fragments. The player that opens the envelop gets the 10 spirit fragments. But don't just throw away the empty envelope, because you can also use it to gift 10 spirit fragments to each other. Each envelope can be reused 10 times before it disappears. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/746a54f634dbe5c50b9d644f2ee3297dce840bb3.png

Quality of Life Improvements

-It is possible to use a soup plate instead of leaf bowl for recipes that require a leaf bowl. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/95a21cc02c7e17a9898cb5505f5831cf8d71c29d.png -You can now move a baited fish trap to other locations.

Bug Fixes

-Fixed the error that when you hold a one handed item and pick up four planks they end up held by one hand. -Fixed the bug that you can create walls and tent holes on the same tile that already has a wall object. -Fixed the bug where stones vanish when you disassemble a furnace/ oven structure while holding stones in hand. -Fixed bug that when you hold two logs and pick up another two logs one log will vanish. -Fixed bug where certain items could get stuck on sleds and become impossible to remove. -Remove bugged sleds from the map -Fixed the bug that when removing a wearable item (such as clothes) from an invisible wall results in the item being invisible.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/9c2b75ec337c998eaf7c5f29a432987af457a445.png

Oathbound

If two non-related adults stand close to each other while putting on matching oath arm rings, they will become bonded for life. The bond gives both players increased survival chances. If you try to wear an arm ring without taking the oath with someone, the ring will not stay on. The two rings also have to be a matching pair, or the oath will not happen. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/a81a1213d9ed7cf629f231e7bd4b03bb1519efb9.png

Family relations

You can now see how players are related to you, by right clicking on them. Babies can have both a mother and a father now, so not all mothers have to be single ;) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e8b0158deb72a7ab428a387fca1ff856bd0b3148.png

Construction

You now have the option to install horizontal wood floors, which offers increased diversity for your flooring selection. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/8acdfa726be2933875c15308e14acc884e6684c1.png You can build these tents inside desert areas. Not only are they nice looking, like other buildings they can also protect you from predators. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/df921b0981d240a7dbd10041ea912d87287c435e.png

Cabinet

Introducing a new furniture piece equipped with a door, offering a convenient solution to help maintain a tidy workspace by concealing your belongings. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/75a3508c35d83aef43e00929c9d5a9a1e9b56f03.png

Foraging

There are newly available food sources in the forest for harvesting, including four types of Fungi and a new kind of berry. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/84cae544ee6b997c9e3647ff7d442b4aeda50283.png You can also make mushroom stew with them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/708d1d8ae45751304214a504515ebfa507eda400.png

Fishing update

You may utilize a slice of bread as bait, ensuring a consistently successful catch with this trap. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/b8a8e0592c60827d0eb4b7e25ee140312b3f8658.png Additionally, it is rather peculiar to observe the presence of vibrant, unfamiliar fish in the lakes. One plausible conjecture is that these fish have undergone a mutation of some sort. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fc36e8073c47c1924ad6bcf872d2bf2823f9c102.png

New Cookware

You can now make a cauldron and a griddle for cooking. They enhance heat efficiency, allowing for faster cooking and longer-lasting fires. Additionally, the fire's duration can be further prolonged by introducing larger firewood. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/71db457413d8115a20abdcacf2176bdece877b4e.png

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Santa will appear when your tribe starts a new stage (starting at stone age 4), and stay for 10 minutes. If you feed him a cooked hopper, he will give you something in return. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/9c6e0e6702040f89c217d153b02271af5e9064e4.png

Autumn Forest

There is a newly discovered island adjacent to our main one, allowing easy access by wading. This island features a blend of the recently introduced forest biome and rocky biome enriched with iron ore deposits, although it will have limited food sources and no additional fauna. The island's bountiful resources will greatly support our iron age progression. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/9f95ebc3aa97f43fe09f47d55be89eb5b85e6649.png

Shelving

Open shelving adds both storage and display options to your space, giving your home a nice touch. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/af4aad584414bebf40fb8514ab95d21317eb4453.png

Bamboo flooring

You can now create bamboo flooring, it can be placed on the ground or used for bridges. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/75ca989309c2b98a4c06dc5f7d64f2eb2a738cb5.png

Visual changes

Interestingly, there has been an enhancement in the lushness of the grass, rendering it visually appealing. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/a5f44fc3e5e9810ea913b79705685d87901c3cc3.png The appearance of the clay spots has undergone a transformation to resemble less like mud spots.(You can see the old look vs new look in the screenshot bellow) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/47f1c285e0dd04842c62c6086eed84152e31a943.png

Removing Natural Objects

We have implemented methods to clear out the bushes and hopper holes enabling individuals to construct structures according to their preferences. Berry bushes still cannot be removed. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fe1307d6adbdfae6ea713b931a21b1a0c50d25d8.png

Tribe Owner Powers

We implemented a feature that allows tribe owners to remove or exclude players from their tribes, as per their preferences. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0ab08983d076ba8828293e3e022059a665155d09.png

More ferns for bowls

You can now harvest leaves from this fern to create leaf bowls. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fa6d124eacdc0e60e84e2598fdf59b7a0c9279b6.png

Longer life for Domestic Animals

The life period for domestic animals has been increased from 24 hours to 72 hours. Players can forgo attending to their needs for a day or two without resulting in their demise. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/84b496f20d8a9a497186a78018423d199185121c.png

Desert Fang Nerf

The sand worm (also known as desert fang) will undergo a slight adjustment: its damage delivery will be more gradual, resembling that of a venom. This modification will allow sufficient time to apply a bandage and successfully survive a bite. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/ca4ffe1a2bf7525485c5c8c0812e59d61c474238.png

Pottery Wheel Improvements

Previously, we could disassemble the pottery wheel by hand, and change the size of the clay clumps on the pottery wheel, resulting in the action icons becoming very messy. To improve it we have resorted to using a knife to disassemble the pottery wheel, and cutting the clay clumps in different sizes on the ground. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0a798ddb9d36c96bea6522ebd9db3faa9693fb57.png We have included the size numbers on the clay clump icons for improved recognition. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/458955147b6390830dbb39f0adcaed5f56a626ce.png The clay clumps can also be utilized for filling the wooden casts.

Emptying containers

You are able to pour out water from a container, into a lake, river, or the sea. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/45967504965fb115f5bdfd6f113d551f59a3e205.png

Ocean Life

Life is thriving in the shallow waters at present, potentially making them a viable food source. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/b85d31550c70001dfb4541fad198f880c060ab68.png One can gather a wide array of resources in the shallows of the ocean. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e51b6c3fad91133298c3333256ba91820852febd.png

Bridges

After recognizing the challenges of crossing the river, humans devised a solution to facilitate transportation by constructing bridges. Also for some inexplicable reason, there appears to be a noticeable alteration in the appearance of the lakes, potentially attributable to the phenomenon of climate change? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/91687b8f3a4abcd996f5b5df41d3ddfd5061d5a4.png

Pottery Wheel

The crafting steps for pottery have been changed and a pottery wheel is now required. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/23c3b2dc96988578f0b0e307441df87afabc4af4.png You have the ability to create a versatile Fruit Bowl that can accommodate a variety of items, including meat. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/7cc0df77632f57d7fe493a29944fb78256edc10a.png

Shoes

After recognizing the need for foot protection, humans have honed their skills in crafting shoes, resulting in not only functional footwear but also enhancing the overall aesthetics of outfits. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/6c2ea85949dd5b1b0deda57fcf98a7059003c437.png

Anvil

Some humans have grown weary of the arduous task of searching for stones to shape into anvils, therefore they have acquired the knowledge to manufacture them through casting processes. This particular technique is exclusively acquired during the era of Iron Age 4. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/3b6b6fea92f954047cdcf5d673ff6f200bf94cb6.png

New Foods

Humans have acquired the skill of preparing the recently discovered marine species, and as a result, we now have a few novel culinary options available for experimentation. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e928742c6e57b1677f79c59bff351d1010e9253d.png

Pearls

Pearls are cherished among tribes for their association with affluence and success, making them desirable treasures. These exquisite accessories can be collected and artfully embellished on hats or fashioned into stunning jewelry. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/b22d2572ee71ccc74c8be520ba04ddfb1da214d5.png

Desert Fang

This untamed creature can be detected concealed within the sandy dunes of the desert. Speculation suggests that if it bites its prey, survival seems unlikely. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fb067e301c292fd2ac3b02b9a22fabec8155384d.png

Tribe Chat

We now have the "tribe chat", so you can communicate with your tribe members without being in the same frame. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/bae63f60087b65329507aa38341bda17e12562d4.png

Feathers

Now we can find a feather sometimes in the Chickarex's nest, but the chance is small. If you were lucky and could get one, it would be nice to decorate your hat with the feather and show it off. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/07addebbd7d80c13331448f3461812bb4d95d547.png

Hat Decorations

Hopper bandana, Zezelle hat and Howler hat can have a decoration. These can hold one small item now. Some would look cool, but others can be a bit odd, but enjoy creating your own hat. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e60b264303fc94bf57eb94cf38ad526a9b55d489.png

Burn the Shells and Bones

Making spike juice will produce the remainig shells now. These shells and the bones we get from the zezelle drumsticks can be disposed by burning. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/5071e4e72bc34f5bf1fcc3be62e1b3c4a5f4c322.png

Black Soup

This peculiar soup is very strong because it is made from two kinds of meat and magnetite. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/bbe0fff26750df1c65ca0d10153bee7518ec2f7b.png

Porridge

With milk and bread dough, you can make a porridge. The raw one can be the food for Pale-Zelles, and it needs to be boiled for people to eat. Babies can eat the boiled one too. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/71b8e98975c295f386035a9def729ea54c5748c0.png

Naipon Soup

With naipons and figs, naipon soup can be made. It's also for babies. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2d0cc74f51bcced7ac7ba385894b1198e35db1cc.png

Olicados

We can pick the olicado fruits from the trees in the rockyland. These are not edible as raw, so you need to pickle these. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/60ed97531a3f37e8eefc344daeba853197aecdcb.png

Eggplant Mush

For this dish, eggplant, pepper and pickled olicado are required. It's also for babies. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/19d71f3dc3ff245132e2b24aec42e2c41dd4da1c.png

New Missions

15 new missions are added to different tech ages.

So Many Improvements!

It's too much to write about everything in detail: You can live to 93 years old, you gain spirit fragments just for living long, the system now automatically creates temporary tribes when you need them, it's now free to start your own tribe (you must gain some karma first though), and it goes on...

The Mighty Elders!

Base lifespan will be reduced to 50 years, but you can outlive this by maintaining a healthy diet with a variety of foods.

Food Power-Ups

- Foods can give increased lifespan, so you live past 50 and even past 70. - Foods can also give other power-ups. - Each food type only gives its bonuses once per life, so it's best to eat many different food types every life. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2109e3a13853a132f32a902b90535dc7826905eb.png Longevity Power-Up Eat as many of these foods as you can in order to increase your maximum lifespan.

Some bug fixes and smaller improvements

-Fixed exploit that could duplicate stackable containers. -Moringa pods can be put in container. -Fixed crashes that accrue by creating new tool while having tool durability blessing. -Fixed some translation errors, and overlap in Czech language -Fixed Today's quest not refreshing when one switches regions

Iron Age 1

-Iron Age 1 will follow after Bronze Age 4 has been completed {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/218be558c376b6bd7679c009e3b23db8dc88eabb.png - There is a new biome where one can find rocks that contain magnetite (iron ore) - Magnetite can be extracted using fire setting and pickaxe - You can build a furnace for smelting magnetite into iron bars - You can cast knife blade, spear head and axe head shapes using molten iron - A rock that performs the function of an anvil can be found. The cast iron shapes can be hammered into steel items on this natural anvil. New skill: Blacksmithing.

Daily Quests

- The system for earning spirit fragments will change. There will be daily quests that award you SFs when you complete them. Your quest progress will be visible in new GUI components. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/1f5f152a457dae91b85d16728ac1ef33e78de9f1.png

Blessings

- There will be a system of Blessings that can be invoked for a tribe. A blessing does two things: 1) it prolongs the tribe's life; 2) it bestows a bonus on the players in the tribe, for a limited time. (examples of bonuses: increased max stamina, increased experience gain, increased skill levels, ...) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2314ffba62cadec8d0784b9ed8fe1f84ced7cc68.png

Play Cost Reduction

- Reduced cost for resurrecting or joining a live public tribe. Actually, we will unify the two cases, so you can play for 4SF even if the tribe is dormant (died out) before you start. Remember that you need to activate a blessing quickly if the tribe has no lite time left though! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f3ce67131cb1bb72caaf066501320c5e978ce761.png

New Language : Czech

New fan translation available in this update: Czech. Thanks to player Klauny for doing the translation work!

Other Misc.

- Mushrooms will be more plentiful. They appear in patches now {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/04cbda207112aac8f726e0d1b5adf9657a90442b.png - The fig tree will not appear in desert anymore, but in the new, rocky biome. This tree will appear in the desert instead of fig tree {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/d44adba46ebd8384dc6501dd52cc8f0f1cc8ca27.png - Also plenty of smaller improvements and some bug fixes.

We are working on a couple of big features, but since those take time to get finished, we decided to give you a smaller update while you are waiting for the big stuff:

Containers are Stackable

Many players requested this, so we have now added it in game! New items you can stack in this update: -Leaf Bowls -Clay Bowls -Clay Soup Plates -Clay Pots -Baskets -Soapstones {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/1f600d74022f5c3007f202b7b4c64f30d141b030.png

Natural objects stay removed

Natural objects that you remove from the map after this update, will stay removed even after resurrecting the tribe. (This is not true for objects you removed before the update. Those may have to be removed once again.)

German language

We have included a fan-created translation to German. Shout-out to @Maengish, who single-handedly translated everything. We have the best fans, and you are most likely the best-est ːsteamhappyː ːsteamhappyː ːsteamhappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e09a59ab495aada777ceace260b710accc166000.png

Cairn Improvement

Players will now spawn only around the tallest existing cairns on an island. Smaller cairns will be ignored for this purpose.

Santa has returned home for now

Santa says thank you and goodbye for this season. Don't worry, he will be back some day.

Tribe Ownership and Invitations

1. We removed the system with resurrection points on tribes. There will no longer be a point where the tribe "dies". It can be resurrected as many times as you like, using personal points that you earn by playing on other tribes. More about this a little further down. 2. The founder of a tribe will now be considered the leader/owner of that tribe. The owner gets to invite other players either as members of the tribe, or as temporary guests. Only owners and members will have the power to resurrect a tribe. We don't want an unlimited number of tribes, so there will be a cost of personal points to create a new tribe too. 3. When the change is rolled out we will look at the three adopted tribe slots you have. Those that are tribes you founded, you will be made the leader/owner of, and the others you will be made a tribe member of. Tribes that are not saved by anyone will disappear. 4. The owner can decide that the tribe should be publicly shown, which means that it is shown in the list of public tribes and anyone can join as a temporary guest. Conversely, the tribe can be hidden, so only players will an invitation code can join them. Member invitations will be time-limited and have one single use. These are suitable for giving to friends in personal messages. Guest invitations are multiple use and not time-limited. You can terminate them when you want though. These are suitable for posting in groups, on streams, etc... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2aa78227798e0c23acb65b21856deb13a4479b9b.png This means that you can also have "private" tribes either for solo play or to play on only with some selected friends. However, it will not be free to play on these. It will cost points to resurrect an offline tribe, and also to keep a tribe online. The fewer you are, the more each player has to contribute. This is done so that we can accommodate the request for private tribes without ruining ourselves paying rent for unlimited numbers of servers. More on how these points will be earned in the next part.

Spirit Fragments

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/3d7c6621ac45b7010503de1d13bfc5a30421da4e.png 5. When contributing to another player's tribe, you will earn spirit fragments. These will be issued when you die and depend on how much experience you achieved in the different skills. Why experience? Because it's a measurement of how much you have achieved for the tribe. It's not a linear relationship though. The more experience in the same skill, the harder it will be to gain more points with that skill. This is reset per calendar day though, so it's fine to concentrate on a smaller number of skills in each life, but if you just do the same actions over and over during several lives, you will earn fewer and fewer points that day. 6. A tribe needs "energy" to stay alive and to be resurrected. Your spirit fragments provide this energy. The player who resurrects the tribe has to pay enough points for the tribe to stay online for a full lifespan. When a player joins a live tribe, that player has to contribute enough for the tribe to stay alive until they die of old age. This can be more or less, depending on how much energy the tribe already has when this player joins. There is also a minimum amount that each player has to pay, even if the tribe has enough energy, because this makes it more fair between players over time. This means that if you wish to play alone in one of your tribes, you always have to earn enough spirit fragments to resurrect that tribe yourself, since no-one else is sharing the cost with you. These fragments are earned by helping others.

Potted Plants

You can now have potted plants to decorate your house! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/479fefd02ff7670acfb6544896aae8943853d60a.png

Santa!

For a limited amount of time you can find Santa every time your tribe levels up after stone age 3, if you give him a cooked hopper he will give you a little gift. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/9c6e0e6702040f89c217d153b02271af5e9064e4.png

Small fixes

Bouncing issues of player when moving joystick Rubber banding when Death-claw attacks player Skip rolling our cleaned skins in the leather manufacturing process Gave howlers delay between attacks The half Evo nuts are made by splitting regular Evo nut , but it should be the dry evo nut that should be used (with the water poured out ) Incorrect calculation of how many objects should go into each row of container In the tutorial island, time will pass one year per 60 seconds again. Otherwise it's still 1 year per 42 seconds Howlers are easier to kill on mobile now. They stand in the same place for a little longer, so you can target them before they move again. It's still challenging, but not impossible any more 🙂

UI Improvements

New tab for tribes by invite: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/1a5cb154de6fcedbe7c2bdf436e690f5aee8044a.png We changed the look to organizers (work mat and table) in the instructions . example: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/cd6d797d2e338ea7d0ee3192ab126bd4592b2940.png If there are alternative choices for tools or ingredients, then they should appear as options on the same line, rather than on separate lines. In the example, you can use either flint shard or flint knife to cut the forked branch into a short shaft, and you can use either grass rope or leather string to tie the flint blade to the shaft. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/1fe92dc18be7d16e2776d8060bd3d5d61ae683b2.png The sections for showing the crafting use of an object have been slimmed down to only show the objects you can create (instead of showing the crafting actions with full details). This should give a better overview of what a tool or ingredient can be used for. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/628d4900bd82701bd4913cff6099619a91f4f666.png

Pale-Zelles and milk

The white skin of this Zezelling will scare other Zezelles away, because it can put them in danger. You can adopt it, it can produce milk and meat for your tribe. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f2c6ec533ba2cd4446c09879a56ca42980794d9e.png

Evo Nut

Evo Nut is a mysterious fruit that when consumed it can change the genetic structure in offspring. And when you use the water in it to water plants it may cause genetic changes to the plant. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2f2976fb4cb90bcbdcc3aabd7eee71ee0b74f5bf.png

Choko

Choko is a fruit that is very delicious, can be used to make treats for humans and some animals. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/236ce2354565398a90f1ada9ace2173f46a38e5e.png

Predator prevention

if there is a growing river grass that has at least 3 leaves, a player can hide in it from predators. Unless the predator stands in the same tile as the player, it will stop stalking/attacking the player and the player becomes invisible to predators. Other good use: 1. if you hide in grass and have a spear in hand, you can kill howlers without worrying too much of being attacked by them, provided they are in the shooting range. 2. if a bird nest is next to the grass, you can hide in the grass and steal eggs without being found by the chicken. You can also use torches to prevent predators from attacking you. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f281e68254b4061f20294b89fc5982e93be06e6f.png

Sprite update

Larger awl Flint chip Tomago Naipon Eggplant Eggs and boiled eggs Bell pepper Fig Flint nodule {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/8fe629e3269c8edf9be2e2402ecd06f265581c92.png　{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/858b9404e9f41bfabc1825b9e87e5eca8e828222.png　{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/ce7c8d1742d6e6ddb67b4e89c9bb39cb8d9c3a04.png　{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/274e28e607eea410d2d2285231485d805a719ccc.png　{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/b21ee67c22500d33857d485d507c3e75aa30f10c.png　{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/c3e07b82475f9b02fffaf7631b4baed46d8dc302.png

Other changes

Door frame can be disassembled vertical walls now have previews that are easier to understand {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/cf856cbb5da70ac70a6cf73aa487fdbcacde938f.png

Added "drag sled"

You can transport multiple baskets or single animal body. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/ecd51559ca90dbfbada879abfd159c2db4692c5e.png

Improvements to some aspects of the ICB

* We will stop using composited images to show the ingredients on a table or work mat. The ingredients are too small to recognize, and the image doesn't show the table/work mat, so people have been confused.Instead we will show a generic image of "Table with Ingredients" or "Workmat with Ingredients" {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/01df1bdd35245580966b83ab0ce79ce5e0598ae5.png * The required amounts of each ingredient now show larger and more readable (The brown circles with numbers in them) * We are also separating the "Creation Steps" into two sections instead of one: 1. Ways to Create (shows alternatives for creation, without going into steps) 2. Detailed Creation Steps (this shows the steps, but will only show if there is a single alternative in Ways to Create, so there is no mixing and confusion) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/8b423535686a0902eaf631813c41017c82ac578c.png　 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e2564316b7ef3ba89a9ffe133b22b81371a834c2.png

More resources

Per popular request, the amount of resources you get from a tree has been increased, and the amount of resources you need to build houses has been decreased. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/99fd17c09bb3653aca35408dc9a5b99cbb0eb643.png Together with the transport possibilities with the new sled, the result should be that you can build significantly faster going forward.

Bugfix

Bugfix for the issue of action buttons not always showing. Also some smaller fixes and improvements.

Faster passage of time

Reaching full age will happen quicker than before. Instead of ageing one year per minute, the characters now age one year every 42 seconds.

Heavy Metal!

The processes for turning ore into metals, and melting metals for casting have improved, and several new objects added, like metal bars, ingots, scrap metal... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/a507ad0091607b33f6bac8690520b655de311605.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/69346c1a9107699df57f7c00fd604d602248db4a.png

Have a nice Break

When a bronze tool breaks, it will now turn a broken version of the same object. You can then hack it into pieces of scrap bronze, and melt them into a new bar of bronze. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/ead24cdf8f8094e6b4b1ddf5a94b0e5f1838f088.png

Multiple GUI improvements

1. The settings have been merged into the same window as the encyklopedia and missions. 2. Information about the game controls has been ordered into an index and improved with images. 3. Several smaller improvements sprinkled about. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/b91ea6a16ded7ee49807957310bc803487a7d490.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/29cf8ad53e2da7318fb8f79a2c19d70e14cdd323.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f8e4bd6c494a5ca10256aaef51c9af1d5f0309c9.png

Beta' Friends

We are also launching an open Beta of In Next Life for iOS. It's free to try out during the beta period, but the number of downloads are limited. Tell your friends!

What's new: User experience improvements: - Use mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out smoothly (the near/medium/far setting is removed) - New visual effect for highlighting the selected object. A white outline instead of stripes across the object. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/39ffb0a5be81ea82f913a66f7890a62c951bde39.png - You will be notified every time you increase any skill level - You will now see the "fail frustration" speech bubbles of other players too, making it easier to see if they are working on something or just standing there. - Picking up more objects when your hands are already full works differently now: instead of dropping the item in your front hand, you now drop the item in your back hand, and the item that was in the front hand is moved to the back hand. - Eating soup and stew now also shows the eating animation and plays the eating sound. Content changes: - New and improved process for creating and using the clay molds for bronze casting. Some steps were removed, and some steps and new objects were added, to improve the experience and make mold making more interesting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/5e6eff47e1a6512e7fbb12307a28844202509be5.png - Removed a step in the creation of flint shards and flint blades. Now they are produced directly from flint nodules without the intermediate step of half nodules. - Changed so leaf bowls are made from a single leaf instead of two, and also so you cut one leaf at a time from the ferns. New players had too many difficulties before they got it right, so we hope this change will make it easier for them to get further into the game. - added option to remove a dirt floor. Fixed bugs: - Fixed visual bug for a full clay pot with fruit salad or other food. - Fixed bug that a shovel could dig infinite numbers of stone paths

Now we have a tutorial instead of beginner islands (plus some other small improvements)

In this update we made some big game changing changes. Instead of the play being island based it is now tribe based. You start a new tribe and try to not die out while reaching the technology goals together. If your tribe dies out you can still resurrect it as long as there are any resurrection points left. Beginner tribes work similarly like islands did before: they are not connected to any individual players and once one is started it stays online until it has been finished (meaning end of stone age in this case), no matter how long it takes. New beginner tribes will start automatically, so there will always be one to play on. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/e5a65af9ae702c12202e6d7d3f8393e969a406c8.png Standard tribes will be started and named by you players. They will go online when players are active on them, and will go offline when no-one is playing on them. When a player activates a tribe it will become visible for other players to join also. The tribes can be resurrected from offline (dead) status several times, but not infinitely. Each player can only resurrect a limited number of tribes. You will have three slots for your favorite tribes. It can be both tribes you have started yourself and tribes that you have joined after someone else started them. Creating or adopting a tribe as yours, grants you the power to resurrect it from offline (dead) state. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/81c7750d64326386b4f64160dbe6ea6609bbabff.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/0ae89c02d361ed5eeac0d3ada9a7cd3815733b7c.png Skills will be mapped differently on different difficulty levels, and experience gain will be slower on lower difficulty and faster on higher difficulty. Hunger rate, animal behaviors, and wound seriousness will also change with the difficulty levels. On higher difficulty you won't be able to stand around inactively for as long before you start starving, animals get stronger and less afraid of fire, etc... In this update we also added wooden chests and tables : {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f379167cb4db8d98d12d159261142a52c2d26fda.png And you can mine copper and tin lodes: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/f10a592805dcba1db2f9808edfa6c4dd26987b44.png

The target price for In Next Life on PC/Mac is $20 for the official release version. During the Early Access period, we have three price steps: 1. $11 for the really early adopters 2. $15 for the mid-early adopters 3. $20 for those who join shortly before the official release The change from $11 to $15 will happen on July 1st, so in three days from now. If you have considered to buy the game, but haven't gotten around to it yet, then you may want to consider doing it now. Some info on what's up next, in the early July update: The current gameplay will change and there will be two game modes, "Beginner" and "Normal". Beginner will be fairly similar to today's gameplay, but there will be some modifications. Normal will add some mechanics that make it quite different. A tribe will no longer have unlimited lives to reach the end of the development stages. If you make too many mistakes or die too easily, your tribe will fail. The survival and challenge aspects of the game will play a larger part in the gameplay. It's gonna be a lot of fun, we hope! Cheers, // The INL Team

We have neglected to post notes on our updates on Steam for a while, but we will get back into that habit starting with this update. If you have followed our Discord, you know that there has been a lot of both content, features, and improvements over the last couple of months. This is only a list of the changes in the latest update, but we will try to post a bit of a recap of everything soon too, because we are about to enter a new phase of the early access soon. If you haven't played the game in a while, there is a lot for you to discover. New in the latest update: - Bronze Age III Content - More kinds of trees can be cut and used for building materials {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/9f72f3073ed47b42e764117e43e3908ab77462bd.gif - Several bushes and flowers can be removed, to allow for building space {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fba3440b18f1335362d2a3283d622c3905f2c976.png - The experience view now also shows all items you have not created yet {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/67883b6235f45e628a94312f6919f1a72d301c2d.png - Build log cabins and make wooden floors and doors {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/c272db642b5fed2add650250362cd3395fb4ac4e.png - Build fences using bamboo {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/8358b629b5178116e06a73ad7235d5c27a96d59e.png - Walls can be hidden from view, so you clearly see what's behind them {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/44245639d7079030f202950766a561da6508e25e.gif - Added Chinese as a supported language {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/2728b9963152a82ee943f688b3e3dfe4ef3de74b.png

Hi players, Time for a content and ease-of-use update! Farming {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/25afbfe631c2bf59fbd1904a7bebcda88d4b6aa8.gif Take survival to the next level by starting to grow your own foods and materials. Stone age level farming means digging a hole, inserting seeds or pieces of tubers, cover with soil and adding water. Then you wait... Pottery {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/3be01656fdde65551f506520a860597cafb1c650.png You can now find clay in the jungle. Use it to shape pottery, which you fire in the new fire pit to make it solid. We added a new recipe for soup: gather all ingredients on a work mat, grab a knife and water and mix it all together in the new clay bowl. Then heat it by the fire and share it with your tribe. Improved Crafting Info {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/4b0960de518a1fcafedb5d6cf3e9e49167273081.png The ICB (Item and Crafting Browser) has been overhauled to present the crafting steps in a clearer way, with the most important details showing first. The steps are inverted, so you always see the final steps without scrolling, and steps for making some of the sub-ingredients have been hidden, to improve quick understanding (just click on any item to see the steps for creating it though). Improved Item Selection {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/3fafa8181014c8c83ce8acd6cfc01f9ba1e4562c.png You can now choose exactly which item you want to pick out from a container. Smaller changes: - Nerfed deadly animals, so they are easier to escape from - Dead Howlers and Death-Claws now disappear after 1h - You can now remove wall frames - Nerfed banana trees (now 15 minutes to respawn) - Cutting a fern into leaves is now a harvest action - Removing/putting on clothes are now on different buttons and don't conflict with eating - Fish spawn back more frequently - Un-censored several words that users wanted to be able to say - Fixed several visual bugs - Fixed that Grass Rope was sometimes called by the wrong name in the ICB - Plus other bug fixes and improvements...

Hi players! If you have read through the information under "Early Access" you know that the development is currently focusing on bringing more challenges to the game play. The first instalment is this update with wild animals that can chase you, harm you, and potentially kill you. Bandages for your wounds will follow in a later update, so survival will get tricky in our world for a while. Don't worry though - as long as your tribe builds enough Cairns to show the way, you can always respawn and find your way back to what you were doing before those pesky animals killed you ːsteamhappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/feba6531351bcf6f9896470f64ccafed433ad6bc.gif The Howlers are hunting in packs of 3-4 animals. They chase both Hoppers, Zezelles, and humans. They will prefer slower individuals, like children or elderly players, so the tribe must try and keep these vulnerable people safe! Killing one of the pack will make the others abandon the fight. If you don't have a spear, then RUN! If you run far enough, they will lose interest. Running though jungle is also a good way to confuse them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/fc98273b00dca606a33a0f049c75d597c9daa39c.gif The Death-Claw is usually alone. If you go too close to it, it will start stalking you and will eventually charge. The best you can do when it charges is to run. It will chase you for a while, but will eventually get exhausted. At that point you can escape, but if your goal is to kill the Death-Claw, then your only chance is to succeed with a spear thrust while it is exhausted. If you fail, it will immediately attack you again. We do not recommend anyone taking on a Death-Claw on their own. If you collaborate, then one player can act as a lure, while the other player conserves their stamina and then attack when the Death-Claw is exhausted. Death-Claws will hunt and eat Zezelles, so they can be used to distract it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41375575/390045e226282a010fd965f1479ae7dba8d2cfec.gif The Chickarex is not your pet! If you go too close to its nest while it is close, it will attack. On the other hand, chickarexes will also attack Howlers and Death-Claws, and can be used to distract them. You can get wounded multiple times. Each wound will deal some direct damage and some damage over time. A light wound shows as scratches on your arm, while a medium one shows as claw marks on your thigh. If you get a large wound on your chest and abdomen, then it will be a mortal one. Use the time you have left to say farewell to your fellow tribe members ːsteamsadː You can't generate health while you are still wounded, but as soon as the wounds are healed, you will begin to generate health again (as long as you have eaten enough food) Finally, fire is a good way to keep dangerous animals away. Consider having several fires going at your camp at all times.
