Through strong storytelling and a broad world, Hive offers the player a diverse exploration ground. Having many different endings and possibilities, the player can create their own unique route, strategy, and story.The World
The barren and deserted surface of planet Eden hides springs full of life underground. Travel through ancient temple cities, sunken ruins, desert oasis, swamps, volcanoes and underground fountains, facing the dangers of the environment, floods and other species.
Visual Look
The calming serenity of the blooming springs, the aggressive heat of volcanoes and the ruins holding a story of a sad history make up the world of Hive. Filled with exotic animals, plants of varying sizes and little details like colorful fish swimming in the springs and hieroglyphs in the ruins, this game offers a wide and interesting visual look while combining many different styles of environments and eras.- The Hive Linux [1.57 G]

Achievements and Difficulty
Fixed: Game now correctly saves and loads the selected difficulty setting.
[/*]Fixed: Achievements for completing the game on Hard and Insanity difficulties should now unlock properly once the campaign is completed.
[/*]Fixed: The Avatar skill and related squad mechanics are now restored, making the \"Play of the Game\" achievement obtainable again.
[/*]Added extra checks so end game achievements trigger more reliably.
[/*]
Note: Older save files did not store difficulty correctly, so you will need to create new saves or start a new playthrough after updating to 1.306 for these fixes to fully apply.
Squad Mechanics and Balance
Legionnaires are restored to a squad of 5 units.
[/*]Hunters are restored to a squad of 3 units.
[/*]Population cost has been increased to match the larger squad sizes. Resource costs have only been slightly increased, and fast build speeds plus other earlier improvements are retained.

[/*]
These changes bring back the more swarm-like feel of your army, while keeping previous quality of life improvements.
UI and Visuals
Fixed: Pause menu UI no longer stretches or scales incorrectly on ultrawide resolutions.
