Patchnotes 3rd of August
Dear Farmers of Tomorrow,
We hope that you are all doing ok in this heat (lucky you if you live in the southern hemisphere!). Here are the details of today’s update :
BUG FIX
Fixed translation issues in the tutorial dialogue of the pig farming region. We are sorry that this change took so long, we will do our best to fix other localisation issues as they come.
Due to performance issues, we have lowered the number of fields in the pig farming region. From now on, all new games will start with 10 fields, existing saves will keep their 41 fields until the end of the game. We have implemented a pop-up in game to inform you of this change.
Because there are now fewer fields in the pig farming region, we have adjusted the size of the fields : overall they will have more hectares.
Implemented a new save system that is more stable overall
Fixed the issue where after purchasing a DLC, loading a save would cause problems. However, please keep in mind that DLCs do not activate in saves previous to their purchase.
Fixed the issue where the “Covers” action would be required again aver loading a save
Fixed the issue where the “Feed” action in the permanent pastures of the cattle farming region didn’t require a precision spreader
Replaced “units” by “kg” in the confirmation window for buying and selling in the marketplace
Fixed the issue where training an employee while having negative cashflow would give money.
Fixed the issue where upgrades that led to lower work time on certain actions were not registered in saves.
STRATEGIC CHOICES MAJOR BUG FIX
Generally speaking, there were many problems with strategic choices as to the fulfillment of their objectives. Here is a list of all the issues we have fixed :
Pig Farming Region

Improve feed independence : the objective of possessing 70 ha of agricultural land was always fulfilled, no matter the actual amount of agricultural land possessed.

5000 Farmers of Tomorrow !
We just hit 5000 downloads on Steam!
Although this number may seem insignificant compared to other games, it's a great milestone for us, a small indie studio that never published anything on Steam before.
We want to thank each and every one of you for downloading our game. Not only because it makes all our team proud of their work, but also because it means that 5000 gamers showed that they actually care about sustainable agriculture.
Here at Gamabilis, we strive to make games with a positive impact on the world.
Our hope is that Roots of Tomorrow made you a little more aware of how agriculture has an impact on our environment, but also on the lives of farmers today.
Thank you again for supporting a small indie game that's trying to make the world a little bit better!
We hope that our future updates will live up to your expectations!
Roots of Tomorrow English Version is Live !
Dear Farmers of Tomorrow,
Roots of Tomorrow’s English Release is finally here! All the team wants to thank you for being patient. This new update not only contains English localization, but also brings the Early Access phase to its end! To celebrate this day, we prepared a brand new trailer for you!
IMPORTANT
This update will render past saves obsolete. Playing on an old save after this update may cause significant gameplay issues. We highly recommend that you start a new save after this update.
BUG FIX
Deactivated cursor during cinematic cutscenes
Fixed the text displayed on the “Low Carbon” strategic choice in the Cattle Farming Region. The goal set by the strategic choice is now to build at least one solar panel
Fixed the problem where certain strategic choices would lead to corrupt saves
NEW
Added achievements
Graphical change : crops are now displayed in rows on fields
Graphical change : each crop now has its own 3D model on fields
Added a recap of all scores after a “Victory” ending.
English localization
DLCs
We prepared a few DLCs to go with this release.
A Beekeeping DLC, which will allow you to install beehives on all farms, produce/sell honey and preserve biodiversity.
An additional characters DLC, which offers 4 additional characters with unique perks.
A season pass, which offers the two previous DLCs an upcoming expansion : Urban Agriculture
This expansion will be set in the outskirts of a city, where you will be able to grow a variety of produce (vegetables, fruits, edible flowers and salads) on buildings, parks, and green spaces.
BUY A DLC = SAVE THE BEES !
Because Roots of Tomorrow is a game about agroecology, it was important to us to support the preservation of biodiversity.
This is why part of the income generated by the sales these DLCs will be donated to the non profit “Un toit pour les abeilles” (“A roof for bees”)
“Un Toit Pour Les Abeilles” is a network of nearly a hundred beekeepers who campaign for artisanal, local and bee-friendly beekeeping. For more than 10 years, the beekeepers of the network have been committed to safeguarding the bee, in particular through the sponsorship of beehives.
We are currently working on the next FREE EXPANSION of the game. This new farm will be set in the Normandy region of France. This whole expansion will be centered around dairy farming. Here’s a sneak peak of the farm (WIP of course)

We hope that you enjoy yourselves on your sustainable farm !
