• Increased the number of quick slots, now there are 9 of them instead of 5
  
• Added the ability to split the stack in the container and slots
  
• Now you can move items quickly with Shift + LMB from anywhere, while if only the inventory is open, then items will move between slots and inventory in this way.

Welcome Bounty Hunters!

As the WAHLA Corp HR department noticed, the smell of pumpkin (and pumpkin spice latte) is now in full swing. And that can only mean one thing - it’s Halloween time! To celebrate this year’s Halloween, we’re bringing back (by popular demand) the Hallowide Pumpkins Killsquad Halloween in-game event! What’s that all about you ask? Well, you can read all about it below.

Are you hungry for some spookiness in your life Bounty Hunters? Maybe you’re just hungry in general? Our next Halloween event could fulfill both of those needs quite nicely. For the next 2 weeks (till 8th of November) you can collect the oh-so-spooky and even more oh-so-tasty Hallowtide Pumpkins. If you collect 100 Hallowtide Pumpkins, you will fulfill the Halloween quest and get deliciously-scary Hallowtide Cakes in return! What does the cake do you say? Well, that would be a spoiler, wouldn’t it? But remember, there is a limit to the number of cakes you can get. 13 to be exact - not one cake more. So, do you dare to get them all and see what they do?

All limited Pumpkin Head cosmetics for all your Killsquad characters are back too, along with Halloween Skins and Portraits. Also, all of the Halloween items are available to buy in the shop as well, but only during this event!

Don’t wait for too long Bounty Hunters. Get those cakes and Halloween goodies while the event lasts!

Finally, we can also let you know that a new optimization update is coming to the game real soon. We’re talking a few weeks at most. More details are incoming.


Bounty Hunters, enjoy your Halloween, and speak to you soon,

Your Novarama Team

1、Increase the number of raw materials given to players after the initial upgrade, increasing the number of wood and raw food to a certain extent to reduce the difficulty of the initial stage.
2、Modified the description of research and development, increased the color distinction of different conditions.

Now it’s official! After many discussions, design thoughts, and plans for the future direction of our games studio, we can announce that our company has a new name. We are proudly presenting Rhombico Games – “What’s your strategy?”. Our new name better reflects our commitment to making complex games with unique mechanics that stimulate players’ brains and creativity.



Formerly known as Hermes Interactive, our indie games studio based in Denmark keeps its focus on the resource management genre. In the last few years, we have released the puzzle game “Automachef” (2019, PC & Nintendo Switch) and resource management game “Power to the People” (2022, PC) and are starting to draft ideas for our next project. Stay tuned and learn more by visiting our website and following us on Twitter.

Large:
* Added 'alive' and 'extinct' species filter buttons for the species list view
* Added a GUI scale option (for larger monitors)
* Finally figured out (and fixed) a major reason for corrupt save files: long fur was not fully supported
* Finally figured out (and fixed) a major reason for hanging games: recent changes to extinction notifications did not fully support when plants were outcompeted

Small:
* Finally figured out and fixed what caused instinct mutations like 'if hear the color green, do x', 'if you hear too warm, do y'
* Added an autosave and memory cleanup before the player starts a time jump
* Primitive (aquatic) mouths no longer evolve out of nowhere (in particular, on land animals)
* Fixed smoke particle effect in the disaster scenario
* Fixed the scripted organisms in the ice age scenario

* The alga, plant and season editor music volume now also matches the music volume in the settings
* The water sounds and the animal cries (in the world and the animal editor) now also match the sound effect volume in the settings
* Made all filter buttons and their labels in the species list view larger, and redesigned the 'sort by birth year' icon to better fit the style of the rest of the UI
* Algae are now vertically centered in the species list view
* Increased the hitbox size of 'next/previous page' buttons in the species list view
* Fixed filter button opacity after disabling filter in the species list view
* Fixed sorting by population size when using 'pick color of existing species'
* Improved positioning of the red pulsating warning text in the animal editor
* Fixed rounding error for the 'minimum ocean depth' visualization, shown when placing a new alga
* Made sure soil stats overlays turn off when you open other UI (like the notification list, or the mutation chance view)
* In the planet editor gradient bar legends, fixed incorrect pixels at the beginning and end

This post is for more detailed patch notes.
Please see the event post in the following link for information on the newly released "Nightmare Arena" DLC and the sticker system!
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1577690/view/6319138589400765828

WHAT'S NEW?

• The "Nightmare Arena" DLC is now available! See the post linked above for more information.
  
• You can now collect stickers from enemies! See the post linked above for more information. (Note: You do not need the DLC to use the sticker system. Although there are some stickers that you can only get from the DLC.)
  
• Added a Camera Sensitivity option to the System Options.
  
• [MINOR HOUSE DUNGEON SPOILERS] Added an arrow pointing to the sink to make it more obvious that you're supposed to turn the water on.

WHAT'S BEEN CHANGED?

• Damage over time damage (Burn and Poison) was previously calculated based on the user's Magic stat. Now it will be based on either Strength or Magic, whichever is higher.
  
• Stat buff / debuff potency for the following skills has been increased:
  
  • Sharpen Weapon
    
  • Buy Armor
    
  • Dark Energy
    
  • Aether Vacuum
• The Innkeeper skill will now wake up any other sleeping enemies before putting the target to sleep. Essentially this means you can only have one enemy asleep at a time.
  
• Slightly increased drop rate of all items from monsters. (Pro tip: Don't forget that you can use Tator's Shake Down skill to drastically increase drop rate. Plus there is an accessory that increases drop rate, and you can also get increased drop rate from fighting an orange enemy encounter.)

WHAT'S BEEN FIXED?

• Fixed an issue in which items used in battle would not be refunded if you retried the battle.
  
• Fixed an issue in which the page arrows on the Item Box in the Party Menu would not disappear under certain conditions.
  
• [MINOR FINAL AREA SPOILERS]Fixed an issue in which the energy lasers in the final area would not disappear when they should.
  
• Fixed an issue in which the dialog sound effects were not being affected by the sound effect volume control.
  
• Fixed an issue in which you could fall through the hold in Castleton after a certain cutscene.
  
• Fixed an issue in which the Item Box in the Party Menu would not work properly when selecting shields if you had more than one page of shields in your inventory.

All fear him, yet, all wish to become him, too! And there's only one way to gain his power: to best him in combat!

2. The first team to get a kill will earn the support of the Pumpkin Knight.
