Build 0.6.3 Fixed a bug with bonemeal before the crystal tree was unlocked Crystal trees locked or before 1 day old reward 0.5 crystals. Clicking the crystal tree after 1 day old will award 0.5 if there is a decimal to make the number look nicer. Fixed a floating point error for equipment where stuff like 1 might show up as 0.999999 Target active skill now properly is disabled with silenced or cursed Pyramid boundary fixed Silver/gold/platinum veins now have exp lowered so mining exp stays relatively similar to woodcutting/fishing.

We just launched the Googly Eye Supporter DLC! A black-hole-sized thank you to everyone who has played our game, recommended it to a friend, and left a review on Steam. We still can't believe how many of you have fed the Black Hole!

Hi everyone!I just pushed a small update for The Greenening that improves Steam Deck Touch input a lot.You can now properly pan the upgrade screen via touch and upgrades are not purchased immediately when tapping them (without knowing what they actually do before), but show their info on the first tap and are purchased on consecutive taps.Also in this update: The credits roll can now be sped up by holding down the left mouse button.Hope you enjoy and let me know if this improves your experience when playing on the Steam Deck.Cheers,Erkberg

As of today, the entire FlashBoss interface — menus, lessons, boss fights, achievements, your master's own words — runs in five languages: English, German, Japanese, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese. Ctrl+L switches instantly, on any screen. New today: English Core Our first course built from the ground up for learners of English from a foreign language — 1,000 high-frequency words, and every card meets you in German, Japanese, Spanish, or Simplified Chinese: translation, translated example sentence, and study notes in your language. Not for native English speakers — your packs are Adept, Advance, and the Roots series, all in English. Also new: English Voice (F) A second English voice for the whole English line — out now as DLC. Recently released: French Core 1,000 words of Metropolitan French — the A1–A2 foundation, with color-coded noun genders and audio on every card. Recently released: French Pareto 1 The next 1,000 words of French, straight after Core. The Full Moon Sale — 50% off, three days Look up tonight. The base game is half price until August 29 — the foundation courses in German, Esperanto, and Toki Pona ship free inside it, in all five languages.

Here's the roadmap ### New- **Build Config**: prestige points now buy permanent *compilation flags* that survive every prestige. Six flags compete for five slots, so something is always left on the table- **Shop drag-purchase (Machine)**: components drag from the palette straight onto an empty cell, into a storage container (or its open panel), or onto a level-1 twin as an instant merge — the drag ghost is the real cube, and purchases pay the same scaled price as the buy button.- **Factory progress bar**: factories show the same cycle bar as he garbage collector a bar stuck at full reads as "blocked" (no power, or grid full).- **Project codenames**: projects are named "recursive allocator"-style instead of "*language* Project *n*" (which repeated the LV tag sitting next to it); the language moved to its own header tag.- **Storage panels QoL**: several storage panels can be open at once (stacked on either side of the grid), grid cubes can be dropped anywhere on an open panel, storages take color markers, and panels only close via their X.### Balance- **Compiler doubles per level**: 2^(level−1) instead of +20%/level — merging two compilers is now output-neutral instead of a 40% loss (the most-requested change on Discord). Compiler only: every other component keeps the linear curve, so the merge-vs-spread decision survives everywhere else.- **Stored cubes count toward prices**: component costs (and the compiler's %-of-bits) now count cubes inside storage containers, not just the grid — parking spares in storage no longer discounts the shop. Prices can jump on first load for players who used the trick; that is the fix working, not a bug.- **Garbage collector multi-merge**: one extra pair per activation every 10 levels (each merge pays its own energy), shown in its tooltip.### Fixes- **Instant project chaining**: the maxed upload upgrade still left a 307 ms floor between projects (4000 × 0.95^50 never reaches zero); at max level the next project now launches synchronousl...

Hey! A small but useful update.Added:New players now get a silent tutorial. No window, no pause, no text, just a button glyph and an arrow. And it doesn't show up the moment you start playing, only when you get stuck: do the thing yourself and it never appears at all. Existing saves count as having learned all of it, so if you've been playing for months you won't see a thingThe small lines of text under the combo ring are gone, replaced with real button glyphs. There's also a COLLECT THE COMBO prompt over the head of whoever owns the combo, and it stays there until the run ends.Fixed:The shake glyph showed the left stick on a controller, but the game is bound to the right stick. On top of that, one single glyph was trying to explain all three shake modes at once, so now each mode shows its own moveThe "All Hands" achievement (four players on the tree at the same time) has been removed. Every other co-op achievement can be earned with a single friend, while this one meant rounding up three people for 100%, so we decided to cut it because of how demanding it was.If you run into a bug or want to share an idea, you can reach us through the usual channels Mail: team@zerotaskstudios.com Discord: https://discord.gg/2fYjyBgb7See you Apei / zerotask.

I honestly did not expect this.FEED THE AI has already sold over 10,000 (12.5k actually, 10k looks better xD) copies and reached 150 reviews with 95% positive.Thank you so, so much for everything.The game took off way harder than I ever imagined. I genuinely wasn’t even dreaming about half of this. We’re still on Steam’s Popular New Releases list, which is absolutely NUTS to me.Release day itself was... interesting xDI was so stressed that I literally barely remember what happened during the hour before and after launch. Apparently I should have also made a community post here saying the game was released, but that thought somehow never entered my brain lol Luckily, so far you haven’t reported any serious bugs and I don’t need to rush out an emergency hotfix, which is a HUGE relief.Once the dust settles a little, I get more feedback, and I finally get some rest, I’ll start thinking about what comes next.I’m incredibly happy, and I think I’m only now slowly starting to process what actually happened. On release day I couldn’t even properly enjoy it because my cortisol levels were somewhere in another galaxy.I genuinely don’t remember pressing the release button xD Thank you for playing, reviewing, and FEEDING THE AI. 🤖 A few small issues and notes I already know about and want to address:Some Japanese characters don’t display correctly with the current font.Also, if you played the demo and changed the language there, your language might be mixed up when launching the full game for the first time. I added more languages after the demo, which shifted the language indexes, and I forgot to reset that saved variable.I also forgot to reset the number-of-playthroughs variable from the demo, so some demo players get a slightly misplaced tutorial dialogue about collecting Data at the beginning.I also understand that the beginning of each chapter can feel a bit frustrating for some of you.There are two reasons for that:First, part of it was intentional. I wanted the difficulty...

I'm currently hard at work developing Idle Pixel Battle.

Cheers,Max
