It's been one year since we released it on Steam Early Access!
Today we released a small update with some minor fixes and a new wonder inspired by Hagia Sophia.
We are planning to release a new architectural style for base buildings and new wonders during October and November.
The "1.0" release date will also be announced as soon as we get all the upcoming features polished!
Thank you everyone for your support!
New content update
Hello builders!
This is yet another content update, introducing new building variations with another architecture style.
With this addition we have now more than 200 unique buildings in the game.
Here is the change log:
Fixed a reported issue with the siege event
Added the 9 new styled variations of existing buildings
Added a new wonder, the Grand Bazaar!
Other minor fixes
The Diplomacy Update will take a bit longer and we expect it to arrive during September. But there will be smaller content updates releasing before.
Thank you everyone!
Patch 0.8.3
Hello! We fixed the recent achievement issue, so the achievements should fire correctly.
And if you have finished a game recently and didn't get any achievement, just try to launch the game and it should fetch you the most recent achievements you got!
Patch notes:
Achievement issue
The 'city full of wonders' victory will only be reached now if you own 5 wonders instead of 4
Other minor issues
Thank you!
Small Update v0.8.2
Hello!
First, the promised update for May called 'Diplomacy Update' will be delayed to June or July. This will give us more time to implement and test some big changes to the game.
But we will instead release small updates in the coming weeks.
For today's update:
New Wonder: Great Fountain inspired in the Italian Fontana di Trevi
New Building: Water Market
Balances: The raider events, in the regular mode, are now less agressive
The stone resources now have more stone! Only works for new games
Other minor fixes
Thank you for your support!
The 'War Update' patch
The War Update was released last week and today we launch a minor fix with some balance changes and other things.
The Siege event now only triggers later in the game.
The Siege event will now take a longer time between waves and difficulty has been lowered.
Added 11 new decoration buildings. You can check all of them in creative mode.
Other minor fixes
When you have a Barracks building you will automatically train at least 1 soldier per turn. For that you will need 1 metal, 1 gold and 1 population.
You will need soldiers to defend yourself against raiders, that can arrive via boat or horseback.
There are plenty of things that we will fine tune the next few weeks according to player feedback.
In cozy mode there wont be any siege or raider events, but you can still build Barracks and train soldiers if you want.
In the next big update called 'Diplomatic Update' we will add more features that will give more uses to your defensive buildings.
Thank you!
The 'War Update' is now Live!
The 'War Update' is now live! We'll post more details about this update, but here goes a quick change list:
(These new buildings and features will not be available in 'cozy mode')
You can now train soldiers, for this you will need to unlock and build the 'Barracks' building
There are 2 new Barracks buildings where you can train and give housing to your soldiers
4 new defensive tower buildings that increase your soldiers effectiveness
1 New wonder, the Great Castle that provides even more soldiers and defensive stats
New horse back raiders and other updated events
Siege Event: If these event shows up, it means a foreign power will start a siege! You will have to defend your city or risk total defeat!
Some reported issues have been fixed
That is all for now, thank you!
Roadmap 2023
Here is the updated roadmap for this year. Two new content updates will drop in April and May. And expect a 'out of early access' release during this Summer.
These are estimates and delays might happen:
The Explorers Update
The new Explorers Update is now live!
Launch and expedition into the unkown seas to find new lands and riches. But to achieve this victory you will need a sizable population and build a dry dock to be able to construct a Caravel and explore the great seas.
New Expedition Victory
3 New Wonders: Grand Sun Pyramid, Temple of Awakening and Sea Fortress
New building: Dry Dock (required for the expedition victory)
Culture changes, now the max caps to receive a reward from culture points will increase according to your population size
Several fixes and improvements suggested by the community
There is also a new roadmap incoming! We will have 2 big content updates before the final 1.0 release!
So expect LakeSide to launch out of early access this summer!
Thank you everyone.
Steam Cards and other items now available!
Steam cards are now available!
There are also the other usual items like badges, backgrounds and emoticons.
There is also one animated background and other backgrounds available in the points shop:
The next big content update has been delayed a couple of weeks, so expect the Great Expedition Update to be released in 2 weeks!
Thank you everyone!
Patch 0.7.2
Hello! We've fixed some issues, so here it goes:
You can right click to cancel a current selection/action
When you finish a cultural victory, the victory icon is displayed correctly, in the score tab
Fixed the Grand Colossus wonder. It now gives the bonus correctly and stops giving 'infinite' city capacity.
