Hello, Aquascapers!

Prepare to enhance your design process with the long-awaited Aquascape Template feature. We'll delve into the functionality of this feature designed to elevate your aquascaping experience by allowing you to effortlessly save and load your most captivating designs.

The Aquascape Template feature lets you immortalize your artistic vision by saving every detail of your aquascape, from item placement to substrate contour and terraforming. This tool ensures that the essence of your creations is preserved, capturing the nuance of your unique designs.



When you're ready to recreate a saved design, simply load the corresponding template. The system intelligently retrieves the required items and faithfully reproduces the aquascape. If you're missing certain items, fear not! The loading process gracefully accommodates this by displaying available elements while omitting those absent from your inventory.

Each template is accompanied by a visual preview, enabling you to quickly revisit and appreciate your favorite designs. A comprehensive item list ensures a clear overview of the required components for each template, helping you plan and ensure you have the necessary items for a seamless recreation process.



The Aquascape Template feature is not just a tool for preserving your designs; it's a game-changer when working with exclusive clients. Picture impressing your clients by using your meticulously crafted templates to breathe life into their aquatic dreams. This feature adds a layer of customization and efficiency to your client-based projects, boosting your reputation as a skilled aquascape designer.

Looking ahead, we envision a future where the Aquascape Template feature becomes a platform for sharing and inspiring fellow aquascapers. Imagine having access to a vast collection of templates created by talented designers from around the world. Through this collaborative ecosystem, we hope to foster a community where ideas are exchanged, creativity is celebrated, and aquascaping reaches new heights.

So, fellow aquascapers, let your imagination flow as you harness the power of Aquascape Templates in Aquascape Simulator. Save your finest designs and relive your most cherished creations.

Stay tuned for more updates as we refine and enhance the Aquascape Simulator experience. Don't forget to add Aquascape Simulator to your wishlist for the latest news.

Join us on this immersive journey, where virtual aquascapes become windows to captivating underwater realms!

Cheers!

misc tech/talent changes

Thank you for staying with Fairytale Fables through some server challenges caused by userbase growth. As thanks here is a code for 4000 crystals that is valid for 1 week from now on: newserverhype

There will be monthly rank resets afterwards.

Greetings, esteemed collaborators! The year is almost over, so we hope you're enjoying the Last Working Day of The Year! Here at E-Lich Corp we are really proud of all our collaborators that worked around-the-clock for the release of our Steam Store Page! But we are more proud of those who work above and beyond that clock in order to reach higher business milestones!

We wanted to share a detailed look at what happened this past year in our company on this first post, but the responsible for this would-be post-mortem is no longer affiliated with us and has seemingly been obliterated alongside the paperwork (Legal says I can’t disclose anything else).

But don't worry! After all, as our esteemed boss always says: "We must always look towards the future, not the past. Especially when the past is compromising. Yes. Don't do that."

So to make up for that, our most illustrious intern will be in charge of delivering news regarding development from now on!


Just look at how happy he is!

We hope you are as excited as we are for this coming year, as it will be THE YEAR where everything changes for the better, at least in our profit margins. (Undead Resources didn’t really disclose the new collaborator-boons and benefits package yet, sorry.)

Please keep any eye that you might still have out for us, not because of any possible labor laws violation, mind you, but because we'll bring you all sorts of incredible news very soon!

Finally, our Board of Directors wishes all of you a happy new year from beyond the grave!

PS: They also expect better results and punctuality, but don't let that distract you from celebrating to your skeleton's content.


E-Lich Corp - "We value your life. And death. Seriously."

1. Artillery accuracy has been significantly reduced.
   
2. The effect on rough seas on artillery accuracy has been increased.
   
3. The minimum and maximum values of “Projectile spread” slider of the Settings screen has been changed.
   
4. Added the ability to choose between the tight shell pattern (default) and the loose shell pattern with double spread value.
   
5. Special logic has been implemented for projectiles after they hit the water. Now they have a chance to shatter (greater velocity significantly increases this chance). All projectiles are also considered to tumble upon hitting water, causing their AP multiplier to gradually decrease to a value equal to the AP multiplier of the projectile fragments. Again, higher velocity means faster AP reduction.
   
6. A couple of bugs have been fixed.

The HLH Tower update is now in public beta. Upgrade your tower to power up your heroes, gain XP, and earn items. The more challenges you complete and the higher scores you earn the more you'll be able to build.

As a small apology to everyone who was waiting for a new update, I added a couple of extra puzzles that are sort of out of contention. They don't unlock new scenes, but they feature the girls. I turned some of the promo images I created over the year into puzzles.

After that, I added some of the better renders from A Foreign World. I also turned them into puzzles. Again, they don't unlock scenes, but if you can enjoy a good puzzle (and I know there aren't that many people who do), you can now enjoy this game a bit longer.


In its final build, we have 101 puzzles. 44 will unlock scenes, and the rest can be enjoyed if the 44 didn't satisfy your thirst for puzzles.

- 4 new puzzles
- 3 new scenes
- 65 new puzzles that can be enjoyed apart from the actual game
