————————————————————————————————————
Dear players, hello!
We apologize for the wait. Here are all the details of this update:
New Features:
Added “Item Archives” and “Creature Archives” features in the game. Players can find these two tabs in the “Clues & Achievements” page, where they can learn about item acquisition methods, monster spawn locations, and pet stat ranges.
Introduced the initial framework for the Adventure Script (quest system). The MOD editor now allows players to try creating quests in the game.
Added a new energy weapon – Flux Beetle, which can be obtained through “Insect Catching” (this bug spawns on the surface, and when caught, drops this weapon). Additionally, both the “Sawblade Whale” from fishing and the “Flux Beetle” from catching insects can now have weapon affixes.
Now, when making a Replica in Schip's Lab, players can refresh the Replica body using Tenergy Shards.
Now, when defeating a Boss in Hard mode maps, the corresponding Statue loot (placeable item) will drop.
Added two new accessories to Drenian’s chests:
1. Fishing Fortune Rune Stone: 20% chance to double the item yields while fishing.
2. Fake Bait: Increases fishing efficiency by 20%.
Added two new accessories to Grounder’s chests:
1. Amber Energy Battery: Increases all skill direct damage by 50%.
2. Kinetic Conversion Device: When landing a melee attack, increases defense by 5%, stacking up to 50% (10 layers), lasting for 5 seconds.
Adjustments:
Adjusted the amount of currency held by all NPC merchants. Now, as the game progresses, the NPC merchants’ currency will increase to better match player needs.
Fixes:
Fixed a bug where clicking exit while in multiplayer could cause the game to freeze.
Increased the probability of the Drenian village appearing in Underground Level 2.
Fixed a bug in the MOD editor where the attack animation speed in the creature attack area would be affected by the game speed in the Developer Tools.
Fixed a bug in the MOD editor where the hitbox position in the creature attack area was slightly out of alignment with the animation.
Fixed a bug where followers and pets could continue following after stepping into a trap (immobilized state).
Fixed a bug where certain items would still show up on the table after being picked up.
Modified the drop list for some Rifter monsters.
Adjusted most skill machines’ values to match the weapon update from the previous version.
Enhanced the effect of the “Pet Treat Pouch” accessory.
Fixed a skill display error related to Coocoo.
Optimized certain skills that caused lag during the Insector Queen and Richard Marko boss fights.
Added defense attributes to all Insector and Meco robotic monsters and reduced their health.
Fixed a bug where accessory effects wouldn't disappear when the accessory was removed.
Fixed a bug where certain skill machines created two skill effect zones after their skill ball hit a wall.
Fixed a bug with the monster spawn limit for Invasion Digging Devices.

Dear Players,
Hello everyone!
First of all, we want to express our gratitude for your continued understanding and support. Previously, we had to postpone the public test of the MOD editor due to some technical issues. After working diligently over the past few months, we have resolved the critical issues and implemented several updates and optimizations.
We’ve also heard your feedback about the game feeling repetitive. This update not only introduces new content but also includes several changes to existing systems aimed at enhancing the game’s variety and depth. Moving forward, we will continue to focus on addressing this concern, striving to bring you a more engaging experience.
We hope these improvements will make the game more enjoyable for you. Below are the details of this update:
New Features:
New In-Game MOD Editor (Beta):
① You can now create MODs directly within the game.
② You can upload your created MODs to the Steam Workshop from within the game.
③ If you are playing multiplayer with MODs, all players must subscribe to the same MODs to ensure a smooth multiplayer experience.
④ We will continue to improve and expand the MOD editor based on player feedback, with more new features coming in future updates. Stay tuned!
New Enemy Faction: Drenian
① The Drenian village only appears on the 2nd underground level.
② Use the Gene Sphere dropped by the Drenian Boss to unlock the Drenian Workbench in Schip's Lab's Technology Foundry.
③ The Drenian Workbench can craft two important functional workstations: Infusion Furnace and Reforging Furnace.
④ The Infusion Furnace can imbue melee weapons (daggers, swords, and spears) with an energy wave effect.
⑤ The Reforging Furnace can upgrade both melee and ranged weapons, improving their quality.
⑥ A new set of Drenian-specific weapons, accessories, and furniture has been added.
New Weapon Traits and Effects:
① Each weapon now has its own unique trait, allowing players to choose based on their preferences.
② Daggers, swords, and spears can now be imbued with energy waves to extend their attack range.
③ As players progress through boss battles, they can unlock five different energy wave effects for melee weapons.
④ The Infusion Furnace allows players to switch between different energy wave effects at any time.
⑤ New Goblin Melee Weapon: Goblin Spear. Trait: Severe Bleeding. Can be crafted at the Goblin Workbench.
⑥ New Insector Melee Weapon: Parasect Dagger. Trait: Infection. Can be crafted at the Insector Fusion Pool.
⑦ New Grounder Melee Weapon: Grounder Spear. Trait: Critical Hit. Can be crafted at the Grounder Workbench.
⑧ New Melee Weapon: Rift Blade. Trait: Rift Slash. Has a chance to drop from Coopapa.
⑨ New Melee Weapon: Sawblade Whale. Traits: Explosive Slash, Active Weapon. Has a chance to be obtained through fishing.
New Weapon Upgrade Feature:
① Weapons now have quality levels, with similar base attributes within the same quality level.
② Almost all weapons in the game can be upgraded in the Reforging Furnace to improve their quality and base attributes.
③ Now, you can continue using your favorite weapon until the end of the game by upgrading its quality.
④ A new mineral, "Quantum Crystal," has been added as the main material for upgrading weapon quality.
Changes:
Underground World Level Adjustments:
① The underground world has been changed from one environment every 5 levels to one environment every 3 levels.
② The types of monsters in the underground world have been adjusted to gradually appear with each level.
③ Goblin Village now only appears on the 3rd underground level.
④ Insector Nest now only appears on the 6th underground level.
⑤ Grounder Base now only appears on the 9th underground level.
⑥ Meco Research Facility now only appears on the 12th underground level.
⑦ To ensure that old save files are not affected, the old map retains the original environment settings of one environment every 5 levels, and the boss dungeons are not restricted to specific levels. Additionally, old save files can still benefit from all the new content in this update (For example, the Drenian Village will appear in unexplored areas between underground levels 1-4).
Underground Mineral Distribution Adjustments:
① Iron ore now appears from the 4th underground level onwards.
② Silver ore now appears from the 7th underground level onwards.
③ Gold ore now appears from the 10th underground level onwards.
④ Adjustments have been made to the types of minerals required for crafting 5.weapons and equipment at certain workstations.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed an issue where the dialogue displayed “Hi!{0}”.
Fixed an issue where Divil would drop her armor (Bosses should only drop special weapons, and armor should be crafted at workstations).
Fixed an issue where the Bloodsucking Flies Petri Dish effect would display incorrectly under certain conditions.
Fixed an issue where the Shadow Beast's Death Breath effect would display incorrectly.
Fixed an issue where the Goblin Fire Trap's “Increase All Damage Taken” effect was not working correctly.
Fixed an issue where the Mutant Parasytor’s skill effects would sometimes fail to display.
Fixed an issue where the Boar King was more interested in bullying small insects than attacking the player. Insects are not supposed to be its enemies.
Thank you for your continued support and feedback! We will keep working hard to improve the game, and we look forward to sharing future updates with you.

Sorry! The MOD editor public test is postponed to August.
Communication:
Steam Discussion Email: simonchain@vip.qq.com
Dear Players,
Hello everyone!
First of all, we would like to sincerely thank you for your continuous support and attention to our game. We have been working tirelessly to present you with a high-quality gaming experience through the development of the MOD editor, weapon upgrades, and jewelry synthesis system.
In our previous announcement, we mentioned that we planned to release the first public test version of the MOD editor in June. However, during recent closed testing, we discovered some severe bugs that need to be fixed. These issues could potentially lead to permanent file corruption. Resolving these problems is crucial for us because we want to ensure the game's stability and quality before release.
Therefore, to provide you with a better gaming experience, we have decided to postpone the release of the public test version to late August. We understand that this decision may disappoint some of you, but please trust that this delay is to ensure the game's quality and stability.
During this period, we will continue to work diligently to fix the issues found during closed testing and make further optimizations and improvements. We will also keep you updated on our progress and actively listen to your opinions and suggestions during the development process.
Once again, we appreciate your understanding and support! We look forward to presenting you with a more refined game in the near future.
Wishing you all the best,
Sincerely, TARO Team

Recent Work Status and Development Progress
Communication:
Steam Discussion Email: simonchain@vip.qq.com
Happy New Year, everyone!
Recently, while I was working on organizing the storyline-related tasks, I unfortunately fell ill after pulling consecutive all-nighters, and I had to take a week off to recover at home. Today, I've just returned to the studio, feeling a bit light-headed (still running a fever), and haven't quite gotten back into my work groove. Nevertheless, I'd like to take this opportunity to have a chat with all of you about our current situation.
First and foremost, I understand that everyone is most concerned about the progress of our work. Currently, the development team is still hard at work on the MOD editor, and we have reached a completion rate of approximately 85%. We plan to conduct a small-scale internal test in March, with the first public testing version expected to be released in June. Additionally, we intend to update the weapon and equipment upgrade system in parallel, and if all goes smoothly, the jewelry synthesis system will also be introduced to you as soon as possible.
All of these plans will be completed in the upcoming 1-2 updates. Afterward, we will begin working on storyline-related content, including the storyline of a female character and the narratives and dungeons related to 5 major bosses. Of course, there will be various other content related to this as well. We hope you can continue to look forward to it.
Lastly, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your trust and support throughout. We will do our utmost to meet your expectations.
Current Work in Progress:
Built-in MOD editor A tool that allows players to create, modify, and publish MODs in the game, adding their own ideas, creativity, or stories to the game content, or modifying the original game content.
Weapon and equipment upgrade system We plan to give all weapons and equipment a brand-new mechanism and function, making each weapon and equipment unique. The system abandons the setting of higher levels replacing lower levels. Players can find weapons and equipment that suit them and continue to use them through upgrades. Even if they like it, they can complete the game while wearing novice equipment from start to finish.
Jewelry synthesis system We plan to add a batch of fun non-numeric jewelry, and players can obtain higher-level and more diverse functional jewelry through the synthesis of jewelry.
Mysterious entrance - Infinite challenge We plan to add the "infinite dungeon" feature to the game, where players can gain points through battles and provide rich rewards for players to exchange and collect, which can be used in their future life and battles.
New storyline, new ecology, new boss We plan to add new storylines, several new ecological environments and factions, new bosses for each faction, and 5 new main storyline bosses.
Handbook system We plan to add a handbook and museum system to make it easier for players to collect and understand every aspect of the game.

Recent Work Status and Development Progress
Communication:
Steam Discussion Email: simonchain@vip.qq.com
Hello everyone,
We sincerely apologize for the delay in this announcement. Due to heavy workloads and a shortage of manpower, we have been prioritizing our energy on development tasks, resulting in limited communication with all of you. We hope to earn your understanding and support.
In January of this year, our team welcomed its fifth member. You may have already noticed changes to the game cover, which is his work. Additionally, we are continuously optimizing the in-game art. We believe that his addition will bring a fresh boost to the game's quality.
Currently, our art department, consisting of two individuals, is diligently creating all the necessary art assets for upcoming updates. The progress currently stands at approximately 40%, encompassing forthcoming storylines, new ecosystems, new factions, new bosses, new monsters, new weapons, new equipment, and new effects, among other content.
The following content may include spoilers:
Our programming department, with three members, is actively developing an Built-in MOD editor, and it's approximately 70% complete.
The development of the MOD editor has proven to be more challenging and costly than anticipated. To ensure better compatibility between new and old content and the editor, we are essentially reorganizing all the work done over the past six years. This is a substantial undertaking and has taken over a year, but please rest assured that we will maintain a proactive work approach and strive to complete it as soon as possible.
Since the work currently in progress is intricately interconnected, it is not feasible to separate it into distinct updates. As a result, we have not released any game updates until now. However, we have never ceased our efforts. Please have faith in us.
Lastly, we promise that we will never abandon updating Keplerth until it meets everyone's expectations, and we will not start new projects halfway through. We sincerely thank you all for your trust, help, and support throughout this journey. Thank you!

We have formulated a new plan
Hello, players!
Since the inception of in late 2016, through the release of the EA version in April 2018 and the official version in May 2022, we have remained committed to the game for six years. Although we have encountered many challenges and departures during this time, we firmly believe that the trust of the players is our belief and motivation to keep moving forward. Therefore, we have never chosen to evade, as long as there are players supporting us, we will continue to persevere and strive for them. In the future, we will continue to provide better game experiences for players as always.
Usually, after each update, we spend some time actively communicating with players, collecting feedback and suggestions for the current update, and then start working on new content. During busy work times, we may have less social interaction due to understaffing and limited energy, but we always maintain the habit of taking note of players; suggestions. In the past six years, we have been constantly trying to incorporate player suggestions into the game, whether in the current version or in future plans. Next, we will continue to maintain this habit to ensure the continuous improvement of the game experience.
Since the release of version 1.0, we have received a lot of feedback from players that the game experience is somewhat repetitive. We plan to make a major overhaul and optimization of the game experience, making the game content more rich and diverse. This modification plan is closely related to the "Built-in MOD editor" we are working on, and cannot be split into several updates. Therefore, this update will take a long time, and we hope that everyone can understand.
We have formulated a new plan:
Built-in MOD editor A tool that allows players to create, modify, and publish MODs in the game, adding their own ideas, creativity, or stories to the game content, or modifying the original game content.
Weapon and equipment upgrade system We plan to give all weapons and equipment a brand-new mechanism and function, making each weapon and equipment unique. The system abandons the setting of higher levels replacing lower levels. Players can find weapons and equipment that suit them and continue to use them through upgrades. Even if they like it, they can complete the game while wearing novice equipment from start to finish.
Jewelry synthesis system We plan to add a batch of fun non-numeric jewelry, and players can obtain higher-level and more diverse functional jewelry through the synthesis of jewelry.
Mysterious entrance - Infinite challenge We plan to add the "infinite dungeon" feature to the game, where players can gain points through battles and provide rich rewards for players to exchange and collect, which can be used in their future life and battles.
New storyline, new ecology, new boss We plan to add new storylines, several new ecological environments and factions, new bosses for each faction, and 5 new main storyline bosses.
Handbook system We plan to add a handbook and museum system to make it easier for players to collect and understand every aspect of the game.

Version 1.0.6 Update
Communication:
Steam Discussion Email: simonchain@vip.qq.com
Hi, everyone. Because we have recently been shifting our focus to developing a built-in MOD editor, redesigning the crop farming system, modifying the whole weaponry system, all of which are complicated, we’ve decided to hit the brakes a little on updates and maintenance. Your understanding would be much appreciated. Thank you all!
New Contents:
- Shelter Tour Guide Flag: Using this flag causes surrounding refuge dwellers to follow you for a period of time.
Adjustments:
- Reworked all Mining Pickaxe’s functions. Now, personal mounts with excessive mounting height will no longer prevent players from hunching downward to mine. At the same time, the mining range of Mining Pickaxe is now clearly visible to players, and precision mining is now supported (Use the right mouse button to switch);
- Now, Hotbar’s item-select cursor will follow the direction of the mouse wheel as you scroll it in circles over and over, instead of locking-in on the initial and final selection box;
- Now, Replica’s equipment damage prompts have been added.
Fixes:
- Fixed the bug that prevents players from starting a conversation with WM-69 and replaying other plots after completing a stage.

Version 1.0+ Bug Report and Comment
Hello, players!
We're sorry that due to the size of our team (4 people), this may lead to insufficient internal testing before our updates. As a result, we need to check for bugs and fix them all the time based on the feedback from our players.
