Improvements 👍🏾

Big rework of the Avatar Recorder

As a beta feature, the Avatar Recorder is undergoing significant evolution. Due to an unforeseen shift in the underlying technology, we've overhauled the entire animation system. While this revamp has enabled us to greatly expand its capabilities, it also renders all previous Avatar Recorder versions obsolete.

• Avatar Recorders retained the possibility to record an animation following your own movements.
  
• We've streamlined the lip-sync functionality by introducing the option to directly bind audio to the recorder, enhancing ease of use and efficiency.
  
• Stay tuned for many more forthcoming changes!

Salutations!

As many of you might already be aware, Three Goblin Wobblin' was recently featured in the first episode of OTK's Pixel Pitch! We want to take this opportunity to extend our heartfelt thanks to the organizers and judges for giving us this opportunity to show off our game to a wider audience.

In case you missed the first episode you can watch it here (our pitch starts at 2h 20m 48s):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEolSoGlGBc&t=8453

A special thank you to all the other participants for their incredible work. Be sure to check out their games as well!

Since both Asmongold and Sodapoppin were such good sports, and helped their goblins complete the tutorial, we will be adding their respective skins to the full game.



We are immensely grateful to all our players and supporters. We can't wait to share more updates and exciting developments as we continue working on the game!

• New Game Modifier: Trading Tokens. In this mode, exporting an item earns 'Trading Tokens' based on the value of the item. Imports require spending these tokens. This system encourages towns to have a balanced import/export scheme. In this mode, there is no maximum storage limit within Trading Posts so that towns can always earn Trading Tokens. This modifier unlocks once the player has reached Town Level 25 at some point in any playthrough.
  
• New Game Modifier: Default Auto-Assign. In this mode, the Auto-Assign feature is always available and is on by default for all buildings (except trading buildings). This modifier unlocks once the player has reached Town Level 25 at some point in any playthrough.

• Added ‘Continue’ button to main menu. (It appears after the player has loaded a save file in this version once, as that info must be stored first before the game knows which file to continue playing)
  
• Game modifiers Easy Mode, Hard Mode, Mild Biomes and Extreme Biomes are now available by default instead of requiring game progress.
  
• In Extreme Biomes mode, Magic Jewelry research is now exclusive to the Magic biome (not the Jungle Biome) because those items are made at the Enchanter (which is only in the Magic Biome).
  
• Magic Potion recipe no longer requires Mana Transmitter research, because in Extreme Biomes mode, Magic Potions can only be made in the Forest biome's Medicine Hut but Mana Transmitter research is only available in the Magic biome.
  
• Magic Medicine research now has Mana Power as an input, to guarantee the player has access to Mana Power which is required for making Magic Medicine items.
  
• Quest that unlocks Steam Pipeline now also requires the player to produce a certain amount of Steam as well, otherwise the Steam Pipeline may be unlocked before Steam can be produced.
  
• Trading recipes for Steam, Fire, Power, and Omnistones default to trade mode “Auto-Balance” instead of “Off”
  
• World Panel icons are not hidden for unlocked biomes when game modifier Extreme Biomes or Mild Biomes is active

• Tooltip for ‘Excluded’ buildings on World Panel was not localized
  
• Turbo mode timer would occasionally flicker the counter up and down based on odd timing of accruing and spending time tokens
  
• Game could not load files with a period character in the file name
  
• Research and Upgrade buttons were available in the World panel before they were normally unlocked

Added new gamemode "Bombastic" that can be played in multiplayer lobbies. Players spawn with infinite bombs and a completely destructible floor which has a pit of spikes underneath. Last dwarf standing wins!


Added new common pickaxe Diamond Pickaxe: "Allows you to dig and craft using blocks." New players now start with a Diamond Pickaxe instead of a Dwarven Pickaxe.

Added perk "Eternal Souvenir" with desc: "Drop a random item from your inventory when you die."
Added perk "Quarry Queller" with desc: "Increases pickaxe damage by 100%."
Changed "Final Crawl" to proc regardless of distance to nearest player: "When downed, your crawl speed greatly increases."


Added achievement "Tier 1 Crawler" with desc: "Defeat the Crimson Slosh on Normal mode or higher."
Added achievement "Tier 2 Crawler" with desc: "Defeat the Crystal Goliath on Normal mode or higher."
