• Fixed a bug on the map (Warehouse), now the map is fully open

Hey Settlers!

Thank you for the awesome response to the release! We have been reading and watching the reactions and feedback, we fixed few issues in game and did some balancing depending on the feedback we got from the playerbase!

- Fixed "Camera Zoom acting weird", there was an issue with new unity input system which we fixed.
- Balanced launchpad cost, the material cost was 1000 per, now 700 per material.
- Balanced 1st level passive generator pod costs to make the early game more normalized (increased a little bit)
- Balanced 2nd level passive generators, their cost was too high, and some players mentioned instead of researching these pods, they can put multiple first level generators, we believe now the research curve is more normalized and you will want to research and use these pods.
- Balanced 3rd level passive generators, these were too pricy, now its again more "normalized" :)

Players told us they kept waiting for resources, to combat this quickly, we also drastically lowered the 2nd level generator's material cost of their own type material. If you want to build a Nuclear Reactor, because you don't have much Energy Material, now you won't have to wait.

This was soft locking the game. We would love to hear your feedback about these.

Thank you for being patient, and please give us a review on Steam to share your thoughts, we will read each of them!

Right at the beginning of the story, you get a torch, which is one of the most important tools againts infected animals.


(Thanks to IDALGAME for the nice model)

It can be used in many different ways...


When you light up a standing torch, the fire creates a safe place. Infected animals will not dare to get closer to the fire.


In some areas there are old and broken oil barrels, The content is spread on the ground in form of oil puddles. Light it up and the fire spreads until the whole puddle is burning. This can create you a safe passage in dangerous places.


Dry plants are highly flammable. When you burn them to ashes, new passages can open.

In preparation for our Infinite mode release we have had to dramatically improve our map generation efficiency and resting FPS performance. These changes WILL affect how maps are created slightly but should also significantly improve performance and load times.

+ bug fix - "Unknown" entries on leaderboards now correctly show up as "In Progress"
+ bug fix - "The Maze" scenario had a bad configuration that would prevent some scores from uploading correctly
+ bug fix - scenarios could not be restarted instead you had to abandon them from the menu and select them again
+ bug fix - map generation bug that caused bottom left corner to have disproportionately more mountains
+ bug fix - unstoppable fissure now reveals supply drops in its path instead of leaving them fogged
+ bug fix - esc can now close open tooltips (there are rare cases where you can close dialogues while tooltips are up that needed this)

On Friday, our @ makeship campaign is coming to an end! This week is your final chance to get the first ever, official Gorilla Tag Monke Plush. The Monke comes with the Top Hat, Party Hat, and Stick cosmetics.

Along with the Plush, supporters of the Makeship campaign will receive an exclusive in-game cosmetic, FOR FREE.
