Development update 2017-02-06

The past weeks were devoted to the bulk of new v3.5 content. The addition of the hotel system and the revamp of the disease and medical system were done first and documented in previous updated. For the last two weeks another two blocks of new and revamped content have been added: commercial goods and recreation.

Commercial goods

The commercial system is exclusive to visitors and 3.5 will enhance it with more product varieties and qualities.

This is now a big and varied tech block. For now the corresponding entity system remains very similar (a random shopping list of 5 unlocked items) but it may require some further refinement in the future to make it more interesting, like per-civ affinities.

Recreation

The recreation system has grown out of the old fun vital and associated systems. in 3.5, instead of a single fun vital, four more have been added: gambling, knowledge, inebriation and dancing.

This will give more variety to both the visitors and to the needs of your officers, which will become more extensive as they become more experienced, like in V2. A dozen new objects have been added to this tech block alone, and they include new interaction modes, like objects with multiple user.

RIP Cheat-O-Matic

Our favorite development aid, AKA cheat, has been eliminated. The cheat-o-matic is no more! All the placeholder item recipes it supported have been re-done and assigned to new and existing factories. Although the recipe ingredients themselves are not final (a raw resource review will be done as part of the final game balance), the quantities, duration, difficulty and unlock order are looking good.

About Weird and Wry

Weird and Wry is a Barcelona game development studio founded in 2014 by two brothers: Carlos and Max Carrasco. Carlos (a programmer) and Max (an artist) share a love for simulation games and classic play -- which heavily influenced The Spatials, their first project. Inspired by the great classic sim games of the '90s, The Spatials combined classic base-building gameplay (based on isometric tile room building) with a real-time combat system and an exploration campaign. The Spatials was released on Steam in March 2015 and took off! Thanks to its success and growing fan base, The Spatials spawned a sequel -- The Spatials: Galactology, which updates the original concept with deeper gameplay and a whole new take on the space station management business.
