Add an item, new game Mining Copper has been released
So ... the old leaderboard system finally shut down, there was plenty of warning, I was just slow getting around to switching it to a different 3rd party solution. As a part of the update I've also had to update/fix a bunch of other behind-the-scenes systems as some of them were now seriously out of date, I took the chance to fix some minor bugs as well. Many thanks everyone for playing the game, 2 MILLION players and counting!
Greetings Pioneers! After the marketing work around the Steam release was settling a bit, I was able to work on the next patch. And therefore I'm happy to announce that there is now a French translation, thanks to Julien from http://bonnetraduction.ca/! If you Steam client is set to French it should be work out of the box, otherwise you need to adjust the language in the game properties. Moreover I could implement some QoL improvements from my consideration list and added some frequently request features to the game. Here is the full changelist: • Added French translation • Trade routes can now be reordered • Added battle retreat • Added info and abort for running discoveries • Destination of waypoints can now be changed • Waypoints now have options to repeat until fully loaded/unloaded • Improved performance of scroll bars • Improved initial loading speed • Fixed satisfaction percentage calculation • Fixed random fertilities and deposits were revealed before arriving in ship list • Improved custodian achievement unlock trigger If you're interested in more insights about the development, have questions about the game or just want to hang out with other pioneers, you're always welcome on my Discord :) Happy building! - Tobias
Autosave functionality now uses 3 rotating save files.

Big thank you to everyone for your patience as we really put a lot of effort in pushing the MOC engine to a new moment in it's life. The things that we can do with the latest version is unthinkable when we made the original world (what you've been playing in the last 2-3 years). Consty has done an incredible job taking feedback (even when some of my requests make no sense) and adding these options to the game. I appreciate the feedback that helped us get balance to an all-time level. I can't wait to modify the original world with the new features.... the 2nd half of 2022 is going to be awesome. Proof of concept of 6 months of engine development that will allow for rapid expansion and release of new content...

Raid tier boss difficulty scales 1% slower to better align with gear scaling Taco Lord’s AOE damage reduced by 4% per hand smash To advance to the next raid tier, all bosses on the current tier must be defeated (was only final boss) Fixed a bug on Shaman proc rate at high prestiges Fixed display bug with max progression percentage in raiding Fixed display bug showing “insta-kill trash” in the wrong place on the raid overhead map
Greetings, you Golden Gods of ːtsg_gːːtsg_rːːtsg_aːːtsg_sːːtsg_sː! It is my absolute pleasure to announce that, starting today, Community Items will be available for everyone who owns a copy of Touch Some Grass.

Feel free to check out the goods in the image below - {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42182142/83102f900fc35b9290e7971141775993b74ab1a8.jpg All Community Items feature artwork hastily cobbled together by yours truly our highly-paid, cowboy-hat-wearing Concept Artist. Also, now that we have Trading Cards, I am proud to announce that Touch Some Grass is a more active TCG than Artifact. (In all seriousness, I'm joking. Please don't hurt me. I honestly loved that game, and wish more people played it... Plus, I'm sure more people play that, than this silly game anyway - Wait! It was a JOKE! OW! OFFICER, YOU'RE HURTING MY ARM!) Once again, I want to extend a huge "Thank You!" to everyone who played Touch Some Grass, along with all the players that took the time to leave amazing reviews and content over the past few months. Honestly, it is thanks to your continued support of this "silly little game" that we even got approval to have Community Items in the first place. So again, thank you so much, and I hope you enjoy the fruits of your labor (hehe, gardening humor). Anyway, that's all I have for now! Thanks again for playing, I hope you enjoy the new Community Items, and as always - happy grass-touching, my friends! ːtsg_smileː ːtouchsomegrassː

Version 1.2.2 makes for another maintenance update. We fixed a few more small bugs and made some stability changes that should improve the mobile experience. But of course we had to toss in a few new gems and an oddity just for fun :) Three new gems can be crafted: Uranium, Platinum, Copper. Seven new legendary/mythic gems will now drop in the Primal Lands. New oddity available: Treasure Trasher. Fixed some small bugs and reduced memory usage to improve crash rates. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35779860/cbd0271a0edf191dcce32dc7c6d973b229d907ee.png Before I go I wanted to drop a quick plug for a new project I'm working on called Signy and Mino; It's a fighting game RPG! It's... much different than Soda Dungeon, but Soda Dungeon isn't going anywhere either. If you'd like to see an extended writeup about this, please see this thread on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/sodadungeon/comments/vnoysr/the_future_of_soda_dungeon_and_my_new_game/ Signy and Mino doesn't have a Steam page yet, but feel free to check out some screens and progress over at https://twitter.com/SignyAndMino
Hey everyone, just a few things I want to announce: Idle Skilling's next major update, the Afterlife, is coming October 21st https://i.imgur.com/sAW54ni.png In order to access the Afterlife, you'll need to reach PURGATORY. That's the 6th fighting zone in the game. https://i.imgur.com/TETN5Pt.png Along with that, I have added a dedicated Steam Cloudsave button, which you can find in the gym area. I heard a lot of feedback from you, the players, toward how confusing the previous cloudsaving system was, so I hope this change helps! Further, I have also fixed many of the most reported bugs, including various minor details being lost between cloudsaving (like having to re-find secrets, having to re-assign crusaders, having to re-assign spelunkers, and a few other things). I hope you've all been having a blast going through the game
Well, hello there, you wonderful weed-whackers! I'm back from a lengthy Summer vacation, and figured I'd kick off the season with a little patch. While this patch is relatively smol in scope, it's HUGE in terms of impact - as players who previously were missing grass when attempting to play on Intel Integrated Graphics (HD 620/630, etc.) should now have their luscious lawns returned in full! PATCH NOTES Support for Integrated GPUs If you were playing on an integrated GPU - notably an Intel HD 620 or 630 chipset - you may have noticed that there was NO GRASS. This was ultimately determined to be an issue related to a limitation with integrated GPUs, and how they handle tessellation (notably, point-based tessellation). I ended up fixing this by rewriting a portion of the shader that generates the grass. Better late than never... Right? RIGHT?! - sigh - Sorry it took so long... If you are running the game on integrated graphics, and you were previously missing grass, please feel free to let me know if this update has resolved your problem! Update to Unity Updated the Unity Engine to 2021.3.6f1 LTS. This is a boring, but necessary thing to do once in a while, I suppose... Anyway, that's all I have for this week. I'll be back in the next week or so, to announce some exciting stuff. *cough* TRADING CARDS *cough cough* EMOTICONS *cough* BACKGROUNDS *wheeze* Until next time, thanks for playing, and happy grass-touching, my friends! ːsteamhappyː
