Friday Progress Report 294
All crops have been buffed, some a lot more than others, they should all generate in average 1.5 gold/day per medium farm plot, some crops like tubers give slightly more (1.75/day) because you have to sacrifice the harvest of one or more to be able to get seeds, while some crops like melons also give extra because they take very long to grow, but in general all crops got buffs, specially grains, they were really not worth it.
You can see the projected gain per day in the collections screen, as well as the seed score of your best crops, to get 5 stars on each crop you need to get seeds with maxed out positive traits or high trait score.
Building materials are now much cheaper, we are taking the prices down by 80% on average, so buying all your building parts is more viable now.
We are also rebalancing recipes, buffing some less useful ones like Wet Milling, all old sample recipes have been replaced by new updated ones, and many of the ingredients like Cheese and Vinegar are now being sold on Catarina's shop, by next week Reiko and Yukari will be selling finished dishes.
Friday Progress Report 293
Also has a better score than the soup had, a 92 score with 0 skill is amazing for a sample recipe.
We were very busy with polish this week, improving further the cooking by reworking several recipes, buffing more crops and their effects and fixing many bugs, the sample recipes are being completely rewritten to reflect the changes.
And we also improved the game graphically by adding some hue shift to the grass, as well as improving the grass model, and made the sky more vibrant
We are trying to improve the general lighting in the game, but seems to be a lot harder than expected.
V0.55.8.0
Changed the clouds.
Made the sky more blue.
Tons of visual changes to the grass.
Tutorial now requests Roast instead of Soup.
