Please note that this update breaks savegames, please read to the end to see how to still use old versions' savegames.


Based on the reliable feedback and suggestions of the community, I've made a large number of balancing updates and bug fixes to Creo God Simulator. With the large number of players we now have experiencing the world of Creo, I've received a large number of insightful and helpful suggestions and bug reporting - I've done my best to address them, which I believe will improve your gaming experience dramatically!


A major facet of creating a resource-management game is nailing the balance between challenge and playability, which I admit needed a lot of work. Based on your feedback, I've made several balance changes that I hope will improve your next playthrough in your quest for the first 300-villager city.

Some of these updates include:

• Reduced the cost of all structures by around 15-25% depending on the structure.
  
• Reduced the cost of all willpower inspiration unlocks.
  
• Increased the building resource refund amount when demolished to 1/4 rather than 1/6.
  
• Many more balancing updates (can be read below).

That's right! After seeing the large demand for a solution to deposits/resources running out too quickly and being left with no resources other than trade, I've added in the ability to spawn forests and stone deposits! (To help improve resource balancing, I've also increased the number of resources stored in each forest/stone deposit/ore deposit, you can read more below).

I hope that you all make sure to use these new powers extensively, as they allow you to create new resources from Willpower itself. I've also got in mind several other randomized events that should help improve your access to resources.




I also saw a need to improve the previous versions' trade menu interface, which was not very clear and was at times confusing and unwieldy. I've updated it to allow for push-button amount increasing and decreasing, so you can quickly change the quantities of resources you are transacting, in addition to improving the clarity of the "Buy" and "Sell" icons. I hope that these changes make it easier to take advantage of the trading system!




These are just some of the improvements I've made to Creo, though I'm confident that they will improve your experience overall. Please, let me know in our Steam Community if there's any additional bug or need for improvement - I try my best to respond to any earnest suggestion or report!

Coming up next, I've got in mind adding a few more game elements, especially structures that unlock certain god powers. These structures will be needed to "beat" the game, as I'm currently working on an "end game" of sorts, so that the Creo experience isn't solely a sandbox, though it won't be required to complete the challenges at all!

I'm still hoping to improve the balancing of the game, and adding gameplay elements and systems that make it a fairer, more balanced game, while remaining challenging.

On a personal note, I just finished my first semester back in University for my Electrical Engineering degree after being out of school for years - I was fortunate enough to do well and get good grades! I've got several years left in my degree, and I'm excited for all that the future holds.

Thank you everyone for your support and feedback for our little game. Please, continue to help me improve the game, and send your suggestions my way! And also, if you've been enjoying the game, please leave a positive review on Steam so others are encouraged to try it out as well!

Cheers!

- Esteban

This is a special ship model designed for, and in partnership with, the Path of Exile streamer: ZiggyD. Ziggy is a long time supporter of Star Valor and even has the game on his personal store (on nexus gg). He is also a special crew member in the game.
This video shows the Hephaestus and its weapon loadouts, a close and side view of the 3D model and some Gameplay Action fighting a Venghi fleet.

We received a lot of feedback from users for this situation. We decided to add Turkish language support to the game in line with the high demand. We have started working and Turkish language support will be active with the next update, which will come very soon.
