Patch 1.0.2

Hotfix

Temporarily removed Insidious Seed attack from the Botanist as it can cause crashes.

User experience

You can now end a run manually through the pause menu.
Clearer feedback on fetishes & consumables items when theyre not unlocked yet

Balancing

Rest buttons in cities now give more bonuses even when your Reputation is low
Rebalance some caravaneers attacks (Death Pulse, Umamas night song, Serrated chitin,...) Having two angry ants playing before you could do anything was a bit frustrating.
Remove heal from Dragonopter AoE, increase slightly the monotarget attack heal.The AoE heal was buggy and quite frustrating. We choose to increase the other attacks self heal slightly to keep the tactical challenge in this fight while making it more fair.
Reduce speed of some enemies. Same than Red Ants on the previous patch: we dont want big packages of enemies playing before you. We tried to slow them and to spread them more in the turn order.
Update Supplies cost when moving on road tiles to 0. Roads should now be the late-game shortcuts that we aimed them to be.
Mysterious Sprouts tiles now gives 6 Supplies. Many players were deceived by their visuals and were frustrated to gain no Supplies on them. We now give a small amount, in addition to their previous rewards.
Defeating enemies will now always gives you some food

Localization

Fixed some broken localization keys

Bugfix

Attacks that move unit now do it correctly
Protected effect is now removed when the caster dies
Blinded effect now destack correctly when it makes you miss an attack
We added Wood in the Agromancy quest area (sorry discord people, we know you were looking for them)
Fix a blocker on Umamas root quest removing the items before you could use them in an event
Consumables can now be changed for another one before a fight

Optimization

We are still working on the optimization, but you should already see some improvements with this update:

Reduction of RAM consumption
Improve overall performance in long game sessions

Coming soon

More work on optimization especially with the perfs dropping as the game session last.
Fix the most critical bugs in priority (crashes, blockers, experience-breaker bugs)
Continue to make high-priority tweaks on balancing

Those are our main priority right now to make sure you can enjoy the game. Once the stabilization phase is done, we will share an Early Access roadmap with you! Stabilization and polish will still be addressed as we start to work on new content for the game.

"Every decade, the Mka tribe sends caravans of adventurers into the Phithi, the meteorological chaos that keeps the Uwando tribes isolated from each other and makes life outside the refuges almost impossible.
Their mission: to establish diplomatic and trade relations, to explore and reclaim the lands left to the mercy of monsters and pirates, and, most importantly, to plant a new tree city that can become a refuge for the Mka and their allies. Regardless of the success or failure of their mission, the caravans must send the memories they have gained back to the capital, using the crystospheres carried by traveling beetles.

LEAD A CARAVAN OF SPECIALISTS

At the start of your run, recruit four characters to lead the caravan and achieve your goals in an ever-changing landscape. Each character has a different job and a unique skill that significantly impact gameplay. It's up to you to explore lost ruins as an archaeologist or to track down massive creatures as a hunter.

UNRAVEL THE MYSTERIES OF UWANDO

While managing your food supplies, explore the different regions and benefit from the various biomes by gathering unique resources. Visit cities, establish diplomatic relations with other tribes, and make both short-term and long-term decisions.

SURVIVE AMIDST THE METEOROLOGICAL CHAOS

Fight and survive through acid rain, sandstorms, or heatwaves. The weather influences character movement and combat difficulty.

ENSURE THE POSTERITY OF YOUR PEOPLE

Expand the number of shelters by planting new tree cities, pass on your knowledge to a new caravan through memories stored in the crystal library, and put an end to the meteorological chaos. Don't lose sight of your main goal: reviving the Mother Tree, Umama.
