Farmer Against Potatoes Idle
Ascension Update Release Date
The update is confirmed to go live on Thursday September 22nd, it will include a lot of fixes & improvement (mostly based on suggestions made here or on the steam forum).
It contains the 2nd prestige layers (Ascension, which requires Reincarnation Level 3000 and Area 4-1-50), which has been in the works since before the game even came out and should expand the game length by x2~ as it includes over 100 upgrades all around the game that will unlock as you Ascend more & more (yes, I know, it's original!).
There will also be new promo codes both for everyone and some exclusive codes for after ascension (not time limited but permanent).
Also, we are considering all suggestions/feedback (we have a big list that anyone can see on the discord) and we try to do as many changes as we feel are useful for everyone. Some of them take more time but we consider them.
In the near future we want to optimize the game as we heard about many having issue when there is too many potatoes on screen, we hear you and will be looking at this part (for now i can only suggest to turn the battle off and lower fps to 15 from the in game settings)
Thank you very much for all the support! ːsteamhappyː
Hotfix
Update V0.24-4:
- Change: Auto Skull Premium upgrade will now work a bit better as it won't go above spending 50% of your skull on expensive upgrade (it will then prioritize attack and hp upgrade which won't leave them at a very low level).
- Change: Auto Skull base now has page 3 in priority as well.
- Change: Residue has been added into the Stats page.
- Change: Whacking a Potato is now on pressing and not releasing the left click.
- Change: Rancher Special Talent Skill can't be purchased before unlocking the Cow Factory.
- Change: Dungeon related Talent are also locked (for now).
- Fix: Offline gain has been slightly reworked (something was off with the monster killed).
- Fix: The Soul purchase that work offline now got an indicator (they all do, but some weren't clear that they did).
- Fix: Equipment Auto Recycle does properly work offline now.

- Translation: Every language should be fully working (Unity was generating a limit and fixed amount of character, we had to add them all manually 1 by 1 ^^ but now it work).
Update V0.24-1:
- New: Setting 'close on clicking outside feature' which can disable this functionality that was introduced in the last patch (and by default (close on clicking outside feature' can still click the Restart button but i can't add everything that is on the UI sadly it wasn't done properly and reworking this would mean that we rework absolutely every background & game element that we can interact with).
- New: Setting 'Add Larva popup' to disable having the Larva popup appearing when you want to spend more than 50% of you input.
- New: Hold the Top Whack button when you have the Auto to trigger it (removing the needs to go into the feature to do it).

- Version in the game will still show v0.24
- Change: Infinite Challenge (Classes Path), the power applied to stat went from 0.5 to 0.6.

QoL Update V0.24:

- New: Clicking outside Features that aren’t fullscreen now closes everything.
- Change: Infinite Challenge (Classes Path), have been reworked to make your stats ^0.5 instead of Potatoes ^2 (it should help make it more balanced).

- Change: Whack Bonus popup is now in the center of the screen.

Update V0.23-7
- Fix: Worms can now be found before reaching 1-4-50 after you get the first permanent worm amount from challenges.
- Fix: Farmer Talent Skill node (left one) is now working as intended .
The 1st Big Update is already being worked on (since before the release, but wasn't polished/finished), I feel like most of the release improvements / bug fixes are done, so I will get on this update again
Also one of the most important QoL coming with this big update is the Buy MAX for Potatoes/Skulls (but I need to test it more as I don't want any weird issues), and the auto inventory scrap when it's full (this will be a Soul item)
We also want to improve the text font when translating to different languages that use different characters, we hope that we can find a solution for this
Thanks for the big support you have all provided, we appreciate how well received and how much fun you have playing our game
