Why not make it heal?
Isn't that just water Mycelium?

Is the update for Polytopia+ (Apple Arcade) being worked on?
Yes
I get your point, so I would really think something like the "Grow Aqua Farm" tech mentioned in the post to keep Aquarion comparable to other tribes.
Thanks for answering, by the way! You devs are truly amazing in keeping this game fun and challenging :D
We'll keep an eye on how people play with them and make changes as necessary.
Polaris freeze water whereas Aquarian flood non-aquarian land with the exception of mountain. So the dynamic is reversed, but fair enough I guess.
I've only had a full game since Aquarion rework flooding tile felt quite the labor for not that much benefit.
For Polaris, ice spread is "their core mechanic and what everything of theirs is built around".
For Aquarion, flooding is "a nifty thing you can do" or "a tool in their arsenal". We want it to be something relatively difficult to do and to get rid of.
How about one atoll per city, when placed it floods the tile it's placed on and/or tiles around depending if you want to keep the water/flooded requirement.
We originally had it as one atoll per city, but it was really restricting, so we don't want to do that again.
Concerning the flooding, we want it to be a relatively difficult thing to do. We're making an active attempt to keep them from becoming "water Polaris".
Wouldn’t coastal cities being easier to upgrade than land cities make more sense for aqua? Though I agree placing 30 atoll’s down wouldn’t be good, but maybe fertilizing shallow water.
Potentially. We'll keep an eye on it
So, not having pop is intentional.
Originally, they did give 1pop, but we didn't like the idea of "place down 30 of them to grow cities".
Ultimately, we wanted most pop generation to come from Aqua Farms and stay true to the fact that we want coastal cities to be harder to upgrade than land cities
So am I
Ah, that's why.
Apple Arcade is coming, but updating it is a little slow.
I don’t have the update as an option. Is it not out on mobile?
It's been out onobile for 2 days now.
Are you on Android or iOS?
Tell me more, i haven’t updated
Please update
I’ve seen them use cloaks. Not necessarily effectively, but they do use them.
A while back, when cloaks were first introduced, they’d use them a LOT. It was annoying. I suspect they toned it down deliberately
We did
Fair point
IMO it’d be stupid to just nickle-and-dime people just so they can TEST a tribe, but as long as it unlocks forever even after beta I don’t see too much of an issue with it.
This isn't our doing, but just how Testflight works.
The Android beta, for instance, makes you buy the thing.
Can’t they just get Aquarion for free? At least in the iOS beta IIRC in app purchases are not actually charged and it’s for testing purposes entirely
They might not have IOS
That's an easy fix - buy Aquarion
Love this rework, only issue i’m facing is the inability to expand water infrastructure besides water temples. In both games I’ve played since, two of my cities are an expansion away from multiple aqua crops but lack any tile but water. Are the atolls supposed to give a population and something’s wrong on my end? This also makes the lost aquarian cities hard to defend only able to support four armies at a time
Nope, the Atolls are working as intended
will this update be coming to the switch?
Yes, at some point
Might be the coldest thing I've ever made
How'd you get my glasses?
Pretty sure that you mean u/zoythrus
I've been summoned!
but it'd be really cool with archers and they're quite underpowered vs riders anyway, could be nice for them
Tbf, Riders are meant to counter Archers
Well, so the game does not have a cannon. Because Midjiwan doesn't want.
Exactly
