A24.2 Now on Steam Unstable
From Camp to Town in 3 Easy Steps
This unstable release focuses on the still work-in-progress version of the new Town Progression campaign. Instead of building a shrine or fountain for no obvious reason, this will have you picking from bonuses and making statements about the kind of town you want to build!
Disclaimers!
There are three main phases to the new town progression:
With each town upgrade your townsfolk will throw a small party, which will include confetti, fireworks, and visitors at higher tiers.
As you can see, there's still a lot that's WIP, especially the Shrine stuff, but we're looking forward to your feedback!
Other changes
Unstable is still unstable
As usual, saves made on unstable are not guaranteed to work between unstable versions, but saves from different stable alpha versions should work.
Streaming tonight
Finally, Stephanie is streaming tonight about the Northern Alliance. Find us at 6:30 PM PST (half an hour later than usual) on www.twitch.tv/stonehearth
Have fun!

Desktop Tuesday: Water Management
Hey everyone! A few weeks ago, Engineer Albert mentioned he was working on a way to allow your lakes to refill, so that you can build your city beside an epic waterfall and not have that waterfall dry up and look incredibly sad. This week, I’m pleased to present his progress: introducing the Wetstone, and its super important counterpart, the Drystone.

Stonehearth Desktop Tuesday: Building Experience
Today, let's look specifically at how User Experience Designer Nikki created the cohesive building experience we’ll all be using soon. This UI isn't yet in the game, because we've already got our hands full with the bugs from our internal playtest, but as soon as Chris and Justin rip through them, we look forward to getting it to you all!
