Roadmap for Update Beta 0.2

Hello folks! After an expected terrible start of beta (and 15 revision fixes for the update 0.1), we're in stable branch, so let's talk about next major patch. While official development roadmap (...from 3 years ago) planned balance update for first beta release, in practice the big balance pass is incoming in Beta 0.2. The store prices will change (mostly for cheaper), the experience required to get level 40 will be orders of magnitude smaller, and all player data will be stored within Steam, independent from vivarium state - your currency is now global, usable across all saves (and in future, hopefully devices). Daily objectives are incoming. Little tasks (like planting number of flowers, cutting some plants) rewarding a chunk of currency should help a bit with grinding for mutagens, decoration rarificators and new paints. Color selection of decorations in store has been restricted, but all new shades are now available after painting decorations with consumable paints (with color You can fully customize and choose in shop). Unique (animated) decorations can be now "created" randomly with very, very low chance when applying rarificator. New rarity modification for decorations (and toys) is now available - an epic modifier with particle effects, available only from random rewards. Rare tank parts (lids, rims and stands) can be now kept in inventory and traded or used for customization. Expect new part variations in upcoming updates. Rewards are now part of game. On special event and holidays, players will be granted special gifts. All players from closed alpha, alpha and beta will be awarded unique decorations and toys. Randomly, every 30 to 45 minutes, a reward containing high-end consumables, rare/unique/epic decorations and toys or even tank part will be granted to player. However, due to all the changes, the save file format had to be changed, resulting in incoming (hopefully last in beta) saves wipe. Your research level should be however restored from Steam on first logging in to beta 0.2. I'm looking into possible solutions to convert old saves at least partially, but please be prepared that it might not be possible to keep them. Amphibians (and more tier 2 animals) and trading are planned respectively for updates beta 0.21 and 0.22. Mac version and first translations coming "soon". More fixes when 0.2 is live - but expect the update itself in at least 2, 3 weeks. It's a big one.

    From single cell organisms to complex ecosystems. Creatura is a virtual aquarium/terrarium tank to manage and simulate evolution from the very ground up. Every plant and animal inside takes part in natural and artificial selection, creating unlimited possibilities in simulating or recreating unique environments and pets, while being scientifically accurate with up-to-date biology research and helping to understand Charles Darwin and Gregor Mendel great discoveries with simple and captivating gameplay.

    At The Beginning, There Was (Mostly) Water.

    With empty vivarium tank at hand, start your journey to create thriving biomes using only time and artificial/natural selection mechanisms. Begin with single cyanobacteria to rush the botanical travel through algae, ferns, vines, grasses up to modern flowers and fruit trees, just by strategically taking plant cuttings, the same method agriculture used for last ten thousands of years. Every plant shape, colour and type is possibility, just wait for desired mutation to appear, take a clipping and plant it to create new and unique flora species.

    then, Wild Fish Appeared.

    While some multicellular organisms thrive using only sun for photosynthesis, other quickly evolve ability to cannibalize living entities for energy. Where access to sunlight is unlimited, the algae will conquer ecosystem, but in other places, deep below, within abundance of decomposing biological material, the mighty proto-sponge will start the process of eumetazoic evolution. With Your guidance and just right conditions, the sponge will slowly free itself from ground and start the millennial crawl towards complex lifeforms. From that point, it's up to You to create and grow environment providing food and safety for one specie, while simultaneously crafting hunting grounds for others.

    the Ape That Ate the Fish.

    After contemplating the cycle of life and beauty of it's creation - how about breaking it with science? Instead of waiting millennia for proper mutations randomly popping up, use in-game GCAT-DNA editor (based on state of art very real software used by modern scientists all over the world), sequence the genome, lookup DNA amino-acid groups on Wikipedia and play god... even more! While at it - claim the creations as new species, fill the animal and plant almanac with new entries, and create a unique life-tree. For the science! (And XP points, too)

    by the End, the Water Was Gone.

    Whether You are completionist looking to unlock every specie and genus in game, or just casual player growing his own perfect virtual tank, Creatura provides relaxing gameplay, thousands of customization options and pleasant environment with limitless progress conditions. Play with your animals, trade plant cuttings, share tank designs and enjoy the unique digital world You've created from scratch, in the ultimate evolution vivarium experience.
