Hello Giants!

We got a small update ready for you with a bunch of changes and requested features! One of the main addition for this patch: two new Spirits to guide your humans! We can't wait to see the worlds that will be leading by either the Diplomat or the Botanist!


We are also working on making the game more accessible with the addition of a "disable planet rotation" option to help with motion sickness.

We're overwhelmed with both the positive reaction and the good ideas! We plan on implementing more of them, so keep your eyes open on the updates. These are the things we could implement quickly in this timespan!

Without further ado, here are the patch notes 1.0.3:

• Uranium power up to 60 from 20. Multiplier changedfrom +100% to +50%/+75% at 8/12 distance. Biodiversity cost down to 10 from 12.
  
• Maxed silver at 500 stacks, but power raised to 0.6.
  
• Strawberry now gives +75% food to all undergrowth from +25% food.

• Fixed an issue where the All 1, 2 and 3 Star turning point achievements could be gained by repeating the completion of any Turning Point
  
• Fixed an issue where Giants used during a session would often be counted twice towards achievement goals
  
• Fixed an issue where having used 10 Gem Biotica would also complete the have 10 Toxic Biotica achievement
  
• City renaming also affects name under the city surface right away.
  
• Likely fix for an issue where a city could get large negative science values during Space Race
  
• Solved giant stuck / ability fail error when saving/loading while a giant is ordered to upgrade slots.

Follow Lini how she plays through the demo of The Darkest Files.

A lot of people have been playing Equiverse and I couldn't be happier with the positive feedback it received! A week ago I released the demo and I have tried to listen to all the feedback I got. To celebrate the success of the demo in the first week I wanted to update the game and already implement some of the feedback!



Quality of life

• From level 1-2, players get more starting Leafpoints to speed up the early game.
  
  
• Added How to play tutorial with short videos to give you a relaxed way to learn the game at your own pace before starting! Also accesible from the pause menu in a level!
  
  
• Added mouse input for camera movement. Hold right mouse button to rotate and scroll the mousewheel to zoom in and zoom out.
  
  
• Q and E keyboard keys can now be used to zoom in and zoom out.
  
  
• Changed camera angles to give a better view of the ecosystem!
  
  
• Changing the graphics quality to medium or low makes a significantly bigger impact on your performance!

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug where in the main menu the hitbox of buttons seems to be too low
  
  
• Made interpunction across UI persistent
  
  
• Fixed a bug where the button in the companion scene can be pressed multiple times in a row which makes the audio sound a bit strange

It's launch day! We hope you enjoy your time in Dragon Is Dead!
