Release 1.8 - Huge Update (read patch notes!)

BREAKING CHANGES Note that this update is incompatible with your old save games and will automatically delete them. If you want to complete a game, do so before updating ! Also: Contains new screen resolutions. Check and correct your resolution in the options menu. This big update contains tons of bugfixes as well as gameplay improvements and new features:

New procedural houses
New Building: Stone Hut (a smaller stone house)
Fixed: Buildings no longer continue to be built during the night (something I broke in the last update)
Fixed: Context/Pie menus should be proper again, with only one demolish action (again something I broke last update)
Fixed: New monster from last update should now behave as it was intended
Fixed: Kroburg Story code bugs
Fixed: A few buildings didn't show up correctly after the last change (e.g. tents). Fixed now.
Fixed: Construction sounds now turn off properly
Fixed: Construction tools now disappear when construction is finished on new houses
Fixed: Lights on hovels should work again
Fixed: Build bar tooltips should no longer linger around occasionally
Fixed: Visuals on new houses with corner frames are now correct
Fixed: Visuals effects on Endraville
Fixed: Construction sound effects fixed
Fixed: Repair/demolish work spots
Fixed: Tents should no longer spawn inside other buildings
Fixed: Stone house incorrectly linkes as wood house
A couple of smaller bugfixes in the code
Balance: Made Ziegwald (doomed) a bit more doomed
Balance: Made a certain flying creature a lot more deadly (it was way too harmless when it came to killing peasants)
Balance: Reduced the strength of the first kobold attack in "Children's Tales"
Added torches to the stone gate
A bunch of small visual upgrades, new animations, etc.
Smoothed pathfinding on some monsters
Considerable behind-the-scenes code updates/refactoring. This might break a few things. I've tested it, but you never know for sure.
Added support for 1680x1050 resolution
Improved construction visuals on some buildings (the others will follow soon)
Reworked a few levels to include new procedural houses (the others will follow soon)
Tents are now removed from the map when they are vacated
All levels are updated to new procedural houses
The remaining buildings also have improved construction visuals now
Villagers now have tools on some jobs
New procedural buildings have received a small performance increase (mesh combining, for the nerds) and should now be more performant than the old-style houses were. More performance improvements are planned but I need to solve an issue with the generator first.
Added tools to repair and demolish tasks
Slightly more interesting goblin behaviour
Improved pathfinding for the Hydra

Black Forest is a turn-based multiplayer game about cooperation and betrayl. A strategy, resource-management game about survival. It is set in the forest of the same name in medieval Germany. It is a casual game, meaning that you will spend anywhere from a few minutes to maybe half an hour on it per day.

In the game, each player controls one family in a village that is located deep in the forest. Everyone tries to survive the wolves, bears and worse that come at night. Plant and harvest, gather and build, cooperate and betray. Survive as a community, but do not forget about yourself. Try to survive the coming winter to win the game. Or simply be the last survivor to gain a personal victory.

The core element of the game is cooperation and its limits. At some point, you have to think of yourself first. If your community is strong, others will help you. But the forest will sooner or later overwhelm you all - when will cooperation break down? Will people betray openly, or trick? Is that proposal a trick maybe, or really the best? What role will common ground play? Does the village provide shelter for those who lost their homes? Do you share resources or keep them private? All of these and many other questions will be asked and answered in every game.
