Hey everyone! Thanks again for the great launch! We are already nearing 3000 players which is totally crazy! Besides most people really enjoying the game, we got overwhelming feedback about the game needing more content. We heard you, and have already started working on it! Here's a little teaser of a New Upcoming Level. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45950371/a71bfc9b474b117e9c9f43dded1338be8513d27c.gif We have also started working on a Prestige System next to the new level to expand the game even further.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29347222/5453c6712cbab6e8ff712934d8cb7fa08ebdb440.png Flint Fireforge is many things - a fearless warrior, a renowned craftsman, and a loyal friend to the bitter end. He is the gruff and grumbling fatherly figure among his group of companions, fiercely protective of them despite seeming to be constantly frustrated by their choices (some moreso than others). He is swift to act when danger appears, leading the charge with fury and reckless abandon against the evil forces of Takhisis.Flint is a Support and Tanking Champion who buffs Champions in his column and the column behind him based on how many Champions are adjacent to him. He also decreases the damage Champions take and increases the damage they do if an adventure has lots of Underground areas. Once unlocked, you can find this dwarf fighter in Seat 9 (Makos). To learn everything you need to know about this cantankerous member of the Heroes of the Lance, read on!

A fresh new look has arrived! Here's what's changed: Completely redesigned menus. Replaced the plain coloured background with a new dynamic animated background.

Updated the click counter with a new font.

Hello There Talented Gamers!In this devlog I wanted to talk about a rebalance inspired by a variety of feedback we've had, particularly in the last year or so. We recognise that, especially with endless mode, it can be hard to dip in and out of a run of Talented.While we're not in a place to be able to add mid-run save support to the game (even if we wish we could), we are making some adjustments to the game pacing that will reduce the average duration of a run while aiming to offer the same challenge level.Reclaiming TimeIn the 1.4 version of Talented the Night Length is increased by Mastery 1, 7 and 14. We're replacing all three of those Mastery Levels with other difficulty increases.Mastery 1 now increases enemy spawn rate after each Night (instead of increasing Night Length after each Night)Mastery 7 now increases enemy Elite Chance per Night by 1% (instead of increasing Night Length after each Night)Mastery 14 now increases enemy Maximum Health Points by 5% after Night 10 (instead of increasing Night Length after Night 10)Of course we're well aware that shorted nights mean fewer enemies and less experience points (even with the spawn rate increase), so we've added some additional rules that should help you progress on the skill tree:Experience gained from all sources increased by 10% in Standard RunsAbilities now cost 1 Talent Point (down from 2)Epic Talents now cost 1 Talent Point (down from 2)Legendary Talents now cost 2 Talent Points (down from 3)Portals now cost 2 Talent Points (down from 3)Mythic Talents now cost 3 Talent Points (down from 5)Next up, we're rebalancing Night 20 to be less about enduring 2 full minutes of enemies and more about a meaningful spike in hordes you're facing.Reduced the duration of the final night to be the same as the final Night music (down from 120 seconds)Spawn Rate is increased by 25% on the final night of a standard runEnemy Health is increased by 10% on the final night of a standard run (multiplies all previous additions t...
Hello everyone!First of all, thank you to everyone who has played Infinite Ruins since launch. Seeing you explore the ruins, discover new mechanics, and share your thoughts has been incredibly rewarding.We've received a lot of valuable feedback from the community, and this update focuses on improving the overall experience with quality-of-life changes, Steam Deck improvements, bug fixes, and clearer game information.If you're enjoying the game, please consider leaving a Steam review. It really helps an indie developer reach more players and continue improving the game.ImprovementsAdded Cloud Save support.Improved several upgrade descriptions to make their effects clearer.Most upgrades now display specific stats such as Damage, Probability, Duration, etc. instead of the generic Effect label.Swift Steps can now be purchased after unlocking either the Rock Golem or the Mechanic Golem, since it benefits all golems.Treasure Golems now display a summary of all resources dropped when defeated.Echo Mining pickaxes are now only shown when they actually hit a block and are easier to distinguish from the main pickaxe.Improved gamepad and Steam Deck navigation in the Upgrades panel. Every slot in the grid can now be navigated, preventing confusing cursor jumps.Added clearer antisynergy warnings to Frozen Depths and Ember Depths.Added an option to disable the Upgrades and Golems button shake when new purchases become available.Updated gamepad controls to better match common standards:Right stick: Camera movementLeft stick: Cursor movementImproved the Hands On achievement description. Fixed an issue where blocks destroyed by Echo Mining and Endless Excavation were not counted toward achievement progress.Reduced the number of clicks required for interactive events to 5.

Thank you for playing! Today, we have released update (v1.0.4) with the following bug fixes. \Fixed an issue where certain hidden achievements (purchase-related) were not unlocking even when the requirements were met.For save data that already possesses the target items due to the above issue, the corresponding achievements will now automatically unlock upon your next game load.Fixed an issue where the number of unlocked achievements in-game might not match the display on Steam, particularly with save data carried over from the demo version.\Players who have reached an ending other than "Ending No. 5" on their second playthrough or later are highly likely to have met the requirements for the hidden achievements fixed in this update. If you believe this applies to you, please load your save data once to see if the achievements unlock correctly. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused to our players by this issue with the achievement system.

Since launch, one request has come through clearly in the feedback: after becoming the Don, many players wanted to remain in the city and continue building their syndicate. Streetlight Syndicate was designed as a complete story with a definitive ending. That has not changed; but now, earning that ending can open the door to something more. ENTER EMPIRE MODEEarn the good ending and become the Don to unlock Empire Mode, an optional postgame that preserves your completed campaign and lets your organization continue growing. In Empire Mode, you can: Face all nine rival hitmen in repeating, increasingly difficult cyclesEarn scaling Notoriety from defeated rivalsPurchase four long-term Empire expansion ranksRaise every racket’s maximum level by 10 with each Empire rankUnlock two additional purchasable gun levels with each rankContinue purchasing any owner stories you missed during the campaignSwitch between Action and Chill music while running your empireThe campaign still has a beginning, middle, and end. Empire Mode is what comes afterward for players who want to keep going. THREE SAVE SLOTSThe update also introduces three independent save slots. Your existing full-game save will be placed into Slot 1 automatically. If that save has already earned the good ending, Empire Mode will be available immediately. The additional slots can be used to pursue alternate endings, complete achievements, or start again without sacrificing your original syndicate. ACHIEVEMENT CHANGESAchievement requirements have been reworked so that full completion can be earned through a good-ending campaign and continued in Empire Mode. The bad ending is no longer required for full completionFull Story now reflects the good ending, all owner stories, and all rival bossesThe City Never Sleeps is awarded for completing an Empire cycleThe Empire expansion branch is not required for Cornered the Market OTHER IMPROVEMENTSExpanded large-number support for long-running empiresBoost now increases weapon dam...
1. Fixed bugs that occurred when launching certain games.
Thank you for always playing our game. Today, an update has been released that includes the following bug fixes and new features.【Bug Fixes】Fixed an issue on the "Terminal" screen where commands and IDs were not recognized correctly if full-width spaces or full-width numbers were entered.Improved the display of usage examples for certain commands on the "Terminal" screen to make them easier to understand.【New Features】Added a "Button Operation Mode" to the "Terminal" screen, which eliminates the need for manual command input.This mode can be toggled ON/OFF.When toggled ON, you can execute the same actions using buttons and dialogs instead of traditional text input.Execution results will now be guided via a dialog box.This update was implemented based on the feedback we received on the community discussion boards.I deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused by the inadequate UI/UX and functional shortcomings, which hindered game progress for some players. At the same time, thanks to your detailed feedback, I was able to quickly connect it to these improvements. Thank you so much for your reports.Currently, I am developing and operating this game entirely on my own. Because of this, my perspective can sometimes become stuck in a "developer's mindset." Your honest opinions are truly a huge help in making the gaming experience better for everyone.Additionally, I am planning to open an Official Discord Server in the near future. I will announce it once everything is ready, so please feel free to join when it's live!I will continue to do my best to deliver an even better gaming experience for everyone. Thank you for your continued support!

The Multi-Tank Update Your aquarium just became four aquariums. This update adds multiple tanks, offline earnings, weekly goals, booster packs and 14 new backgrounds — plus a rebuilt progression curve so the full collection lasts. Multiple Aquariums Unlock up to 4 separate tanks from the new Tanks tab in the store Each tank keeps its own fish, decorations and background Switch between tanks instantly from the bottom bar Move fish and decorations between tanks whenever you like Each tank has its own fish capacity, so a new tank genuinely means more fish The Showcase tank is a display case: it holds your whole collection, and fish there never get hungry or sick and it never gets dirty Offline Earnings Your decorations now keep earning while the game is closed. Come back to a "Welcome back" summary showing what you made. Previously, being away only meant hungry fish and a dirty tank — now there is something waiting for you. Booster Packs Two packs — Freshwater and Reef — each give 3 random fish for less than buying them one by one. Species you have not discovered yet are more likely to appear, so packs help complete the collection instead of handing you duplicates. Daily & Weekly Quests Three small daily goals and one weekly goal, shown in the top-right corner. They reward EXP, and there is no streak to lose — miss a day and nothing breaks. The list hides itself once everything is done. Fish of the Week Every week one species is featured and sells for +75% once fully grown. The same fish is featured for everyone, so it is worth comparing notes. 14 New Backgrounds The background collection grows from 9 to 23, and all of the existing artwork has been redrawn at full resolution. Share Your Aquarium Upload a screenshot of your aquarium to the Steam screenshots section. The nicest 5-10 aquariums, chosen by players and by us, will be added to a "Best Aquariums" gallery inside the game, credited to whoever built them. Progression Rebalanced We simulated thousands of playthrou...
Greetings Universe Architects,It’s been a while since our last dev diary from 2025, in which we talked about Reality Reboot and its effect on the simulation. In 2026, we’ve released content almost every three weeks, with new chapters of Life expanding into Mollusks and Crustaceans. Civilization continues its stride toward progress with Scientific Revolution II and Industrial Revolution II. The Beyond drew to a close with Beyond E30: Cosmic Horizons. Meanwhile the game continues to improve through Quality of Life updates, with Time Chambers and the expanded Nanobots. Now it’s time to talk about the next major Cell to Singularity expansion: The Future. Spoilers ahead.A New Expansion: The FutureThere is an unexplained new node in the game. Semblance has become intrigued with the possibilities of predicting the future, and now she must go further than ever before into unknown territory. What is The Future?Veteran players may remember the speculative future content that was in the Primary Simulation for many years. We removed this content during Reality Reboot with the intention to bring it back bigger and better. That content will now return in an enhanced form with The Future expansion:Five new chapters, known as visions, will each introduce a new generator and its own set of speculative future nodesEach vision will feature unique content in new future gardensMissions system will be updated to make player progression more engagingSemblance must complete all five visions of The Future in order to unlock Singularity once againThe Future will mark the next grand stage in Semblance’s journey, giving players a front row seat of the potential paths ahead for humanity. The first available vision to players will be the Future of Space. Join Semblance in navigating through the evolution of space exploration as it becomes a mainstream part of civilization.
