No matter how you repair the Witch's House, it only changes the part above the ground and not the basement. Isn't it a bit disappointing?
Now, you can decorate the basement too. You can relocate the processing tools that you originally couldn't move, and decorate the interior of the basement with tools purchased from the shop.
Besides, you can also ask Diane to expand the basement in whichever direction you want.
Design an efficient route across the basement or decorate it to your liking!








The previous patch added the Tool Selector to the game for easier tool switching.
This time, a "Use Potions" UI is added for you to equip the potions to use.
Now, you just need to open the "Use Potions" UI to check the available potions and select the one you want to use.








Does this sound familiar to you? You go to the shop to buy decoration items, but can't decide on any because you can't preview how they look.
To address such inconvenience, we've added a "Preview" UI to the "Shop" UI.
In the "Preview" UI, you can check "an item's appearance, placement and how many you currently own" before you buy it from the shop.
A more convenient decoration system awaits you.








A small life form that appears in the new region.
It has gorgeous wings and is pleasing to the eye when it flies. But don't be too bewitched by that sight to forget to collect it. Besides, Beemoths only fly at certain locations. Please think carefully before you collect them.








Cable cars are installed everywhere in the new region to assist Ellie's exploration.
You can adjust the speed of the cable car to head to your destination faster or take time to enjoy the scenery of the forest. Are you already itching to go explore new locations by cable car? It will provide an experience different from that of the Green Forest and add more varieties to your apprenticeship.








Added a new processing tool — Mixer, so that you can process your collected items in a new way.
The "Mixer" mixes and compresses collected items, turning them into cubes.
It also has another feature: The longer Ellie holds down the button, the faster the Mixer does its work.








The current crafting is relatively straightforward. You just need to recite the ingredients in the Encyclopedia, and adjust the fire setting and the ladle direction.
However, as the game has a witch as its protagonist, we want potion crafting to play a more important role in the game and be more fun. So we've overhauled the potion crafting mechanism to make it feel more convincing.
Oh, and! Reciting potion recipes was a torture, wasn't it?
After the update, the recipe will be displayed on the top of the screen when you're crafting, saving you the recitation.
At first, the ingredients may occasionally fume or cake and not turn into the potion properly, but your success rate will spike just after a few tries!
You will definitely like this more convincing potion crafting experience!








That concludes today's development log.
The next development log will be posted as scheduled.

A little about my future project:
Project name: "Main Way"
it's something between "minecraft: Industrial Craft" and "kerbal space programs"
this is the project that made me become a programmer and create games. The idea for developing this project came to me back in 2012, but at that time I did not have any programming skills, but I was very impressed by minecraft, I think you understand what I mean. ^_^
At the moment, the game's development is approximately 20% complete.

Block editor created
Biome editor created
Planet editor is currently being developed

Will need to create:
A creature editor
Buildings editor
crafting system editor
Multiplayer

After the events of 2022, I was depressed and it took me quite a long time to come to my senses. I decided that I wanted to continue developing games and giving people joy, although now I have a job that takes up most of my time, in my free time I continue to develop. Therefore, I ask you to listen to the tracks, this will help Spotify attract new listeners and, as a result, will help me continue developing games. Thank you so much, I love you guys!

Time goes by quickly, and now the project has been in existence for exactly 5 years! The game was released between November 27 and 28, so we shamelessly took an extra day to celebrate. On the occasion of the anniversary, we decided to please you and ourselves with a colorful scene of one of Roui’s birthdays. He spent it in Nouri together with Mermey and Laslo.

"It was the warmest and most amazing day of late autumn, when sunlight suddenly poured through the clouds and drizzling rain. Three friends, soaked to the skin, sang and danced on an empty embankment, presenting an amazing sight. Who would have thought that a well-known dentist and an influential lady philanthropist could have such selfless fun in the company of a student?"

Hey everyone!

This update aims to tackle a pain point that's been in the game for far too long - the difficulty of finding a clan and finding members for your clan. The newly added clan recruitment center will allow clan leaders to set up parameters for their clan which players seeking clans can use to find the right fit for them.

Related, all clans have also received a new metric: the Activity score. It's calculated automatically based on the experience input by each individual member and clans with the highest activity scores are pushed to the top of the recruitment center.

Another notable change is that recent chat messages are now queried when you log into the game. For clan chat, you'll be able to view messages from the past 24 hours.

There's not nearly all though, so read on!

Clan settings & metrics

• Activity score: this is calculated by the game automatically and is based on the individual experience contribution of every member in the clan, based on the past few days. Clans with the highest activity score are by default shown at the top of the recruitment center. For an individual member to reach the maximum amount they can contribute towards the clan activity score, they'll need to have gained 400K experience in the past 48 hours. Note that the activity score is calculated no more often than once an hour, so it'll take some time for things to get going once the update lands
  
• Minimum total level: clans can set up a minimum total level required of players to be able to apply to their clan. Note that you can still invite players that don't meet the total level requirement
  
• Language: clans can now set up a primary language
  
• Recruiting only: turn this on to only be offered clans that are actively recruiting and aren't full. Clan leaders note: the recruiting state is off by default and you'll need to turn it on in the management page for players to be able to apply to your clan
  
• Category: 3 new categories have been added: Casual, Competitive and Hardcore. Use it to help find the right clan for you

Clan changes

• Clan management page overhauled, both visually and functionally. As mentioned above, here is where you can configure settings for your clan that will make it easier to get the right people into your clan
  
• The member cap for clans has been raised from 15 to 20
  
• A new clan house has been added for the most accomplished clans: Castle
  
• You can now view offline clan members
  
• You can now optionally include a message in your application when joining a clan
  
• Applications now show the applicants total level at the time of applying (doesn't apply to old applications retroactively)
  
• Clan page (the view when you're not in a clan) was reworked and now displays the most active recruiting clans rather than the top clans, among other tweaks
  
• Clan vault space IAP purchases now provide a tradeable token
  
• The unlockable clan vault slots for normal clans have been significantly raised from 40 to 200. For ironman clans, the slots were raised to 80
  
• Regular members can now claim leadership of a clan if the leader has been offline for more than 90 days. Deputy leaders are still able to claim it first at 28 days of the leader being offline
  
• "Deputy leader" text was shortened to just "Deputy" in most places

Chat changes

• Historic chat messages are now loaded into the chat when you log into the game to make it easier to engage with the community - especially for clans!
  
  • Public channels (General, Help, Trade) messages are retrieved from the past 20 minutes
    
  • Clan messages are retrieved from the past 24 hours at a cap of 50 messages
• Channel configuration in settings
  
  • Channels can now be disabled so that you can neither receive or send messages in them
    
  • Channel notifications can now be disabled so that you can be alerted of activity only from channels you're interested in

Miscellaneous changes

• The tutorial guide and clan event genie have received new sprites
  
• Game background brightness can now be modified from settings
  
• Confirmation popup buttons now scale up when hovered
  
• Leaderboards went through some backend changes. As a result, your leaderboards profile might be slightly out of date until you relog

Bug fixes

• Fixed the join date of some clan members not being set correctly. As a result of this change and some larger related refactoring, the join date of every existing member in every existing clan has been set to this date
  
• Fixed the offline progress popup UI sometimes overlapping if you had a lot of item rewards
  
• Fixed all of your arrows being worn when equipping arrows, regardless of the amount you entered
  
• The game will now attempt to recalculate your clan event progress when you return to the game on a mobile device. For more context, when Idle Clans was paused or minimized on mobile devices whilst in a clan event, it would appear as if you made no progress during your time away from the game. This wasn't the case - as long as you're connected to the server, the server will correctly calculate the correct progression for you even if it doesn't appear that way on your device.
  
• Ironmen can now send the loadout token to normal players
  
• Fixed an issue in clan events with auto run & task loadouts where the item rewards and your equipped items could be added to your inventory in a different order between the client and server, causing a desync
  
• Fixed the disconnection popup often showing an old message
  
• Fixed the "Previous tier cape" being listed as a requirement for buying a tier 1 mastery cape
  
• Fixed the combat group leader leaving the group sometimes causing unexpected errors to occur during group combat
  
• Fixed an edge case issue causing food sometimes to go out of sync between the client and server during combat
  
• Fixed manually looting boss keys without boss hunter unlocked sometimes causing your keys to go out of sync between client and server
