Hey gang!

Progress on the next update is sprinting ahead. I'm working hard to get it out as soon as I can and I'm pleased with where it's going. I'm starting to approach a point where I feel like the game is getting close to its 1.0 content and feature requirement. I want to talk about that towards the end of this post. First, let's take a look at some of the new additions to the game...

Players will have the option to start a kingdom when they begin a new game. After selecting a starting loadout for your game, players will need to select a point ...

No, it's a bug where some events just look for a certain race in your settlement. I'll be addressing these issues for the next expansion. Sorry about that!

That's right, I've got a release date in sight for the Lost Legends update, July 24th. Things are shaping up well, and I'm hoping to release into beta in a couple weeks to get some testing. Let's see what I've been up to since the last dev log.

More UI stuff???

I've been working a lot on trying to make the game easier to use and less frustrating. I've got improvements in this update for AI and gameplay, but UI is a big part of the pain that I see players experiencing. So, I've put tons of time towards making things simpler, clearer, and more intuitive.

Oh, also, you can sometimes find tomes for sale when merchants arrive.

Settlers drop them when they fight or train at barracks/range. Bad guys will attack as you acquire more people and wealth. Alternatively, you can explore underground to find them. The best way is to train, though.

I really appreciate all your kind messages Ace. Thanks for all the support!

Thank you my friend!

Hello friends!

First off, thank you all for being super patient waiting for these updates. I had intended to put the new content out into beta in March, and I was very close to doing this. In my last log, I had said it was two weeks out, and, at the time, that was true. The new Gwdir race was just about there. However, there were some things I needed to address first. While I've been working on these updates, I've received quite a few messages that talk about several issues with the UI. These are issues I've encountered myself, and they were bugging the heck out of me too. The last thing I want is for the core of the game to be worsened by annoying and unpolished UI. I couldn't just ignore the feedback I was getting. Since the last dev log, I've meticulously worked on those issues. Let's take a look!

Window Improvements

Job and Room Toolbar

This one was a huge annoyance for myself, and I'm sure a lot of you found...

Thanks! I appreciate that. I’m not really sure what you’d call it outside low res pixel art. Happy to hear you like it tho!

No need to apologize. I totally understand the frustration here. I'm happy to hear the new version is coming down. Hope you enjoy!

Shoot! Thanks!

Hmmm, I definitely updated them last year, and am downloading the correct version (0.11.0.23) when I download via GoG. I assure you, I am not avoiding updating GoG, and am happy to try and resolve this issue. Are you playing on Win, Mac, or Linux? Maybe there's something funky going on with the installer on those platforms I can look into.

As for playing offline, you don't need an internet connection to play. Whether you got the game from Steam, Itchio, or GoG, you can play by just running the executable from the location you installed it to.

That said, if it continues to have troubles, you should be able to request a refund through GoG. I have zero control over refunds.

Thanks! :)

What a nice thing to read. Thank you for the kind words.

I’m glad to hear you like it. Thanks so much!

Thanks! I appreciate the support

Thanks my friend!
