Hi there! Balrum has just been updated to version 1.6!
First of all, a big thank you for everyone who submitted bug reports and feature suggestions! Here are the changes for patch 1.6:

GUI:

-The buildable objects inside the Building panel are now sorted for ease of use. -Right clicking on an Inventory tab now sorts the items in that tab based on name and value.

-UI elements wont reposition themselves when minimising/alt-tabbing the game.

Engine:

-The renderer now supports water reflections and bloom effects. The bloom effect is disabled by default. You can enable it via the video options menu.

-The config.xml subsystem has been rewritten to be more compatible and efficient. -Improved performance on 4K systems. -Third party libraries have been updated to the latest versions.

Fixes:

-The marble hearth now costs the proper amount to build. -Some buildable objects have been moved to a different Building tab for ease of use. -All crafting tables have been renamed inside the Building panel to be more recognisable. -The Leader of the Pack boss now properly triggers the rewards dialog. (this was a regression)

Typos:

Basic text errors and logical errors have been fixed: -files/dialogs/en/gui/afterrelease.xml -files/dialogs/en/osric/packsandfires -files/dialogs/en/neil/history -files/dialogs/en/elestterr/elestterwelcome -files/dialogs/en/orran/orranwelcome -files/dialogs/en/bolt/boltifmage -files/dialogs/en/barnabas/youoweleonard -files/dialogs/en/helperdialogs/howtotaimanimals -files/dialogs/en/fox/golems -files/dialogs/en/walker/a_cape_of_a_warlock -files/dialogs/en/rod/rodimlookingforwork -files/dialogs/en/tina/tinamissingfriends -files/dialogs/en/kotf/reddragonwelcome

Thank you for your support everyone and have a nice day!

Yours, Balcony Team

You know in your heart that once you step out of the protection of the place where you grown up, nothing will be the same. You have to face a world that's in chaos. A world without laws.
