Alright, goblins, no more waiting! Let's get right into today's exciting update!
1.1.0: Opening Gambit
The process of choosing a region map location at the beginning of the game has been reimagined. Instead, you will see a new village selection screen. This screen showcases the tileset that you will be playing on, providing a scaled view of elder resource and threat locations in a simplified form. So now you will be better prepared when starting a new game of what resources are available at your level and, more importantly, where they are located.
Features:
The initial game flow of selecting a region map location has been removed. Instead, a new selection screen has been introduced. Players can now choose the village tileset, which provides a comprehensive view of all elder resource and threat locations. This allows for better strategic planning before selecting your starting clan.
Sound:
Immerse yourself in the game with the addition of new audio for god spell casting.
A range of adjustments has been made to voiceover falloff for goblins, enemies, and heroes.
Bug Fixes:
An issue with skeletons not correctly saving their state, leading to them being stuck idle when loading a saved game, has been addressed and resolved.
The problem of goblin corpses not properly reanimating has been fixed, ensuring a higher threat when not maintaining priests to collect corpses in time.
