New screenshots, updated information, and a few small hints about the world of the game are now waiting for you on the store page.But we haven’t revealed everything. :)If you’re curious about what awaits you later in the game — and how fishing is actually only the beginning of a much larger system — we recommend taking a closer look at the store page.🔎 Some details may reveal much more about future systems than you might expect.New regions? Different production systems? Problems waiting to be researched? Or perhaps something entirely different that we haven’t shown yet?For now, we’ll only say this:There is still plenty to discover beneath the sea and beyond the shore.Take another look at the store page. Maybe we’ve already hidden a clue about the next update somewhere in there. 👀

We received a ton of feedback over the weekend and have been hard at working fixing bugs and aiming to deliver some quality of life updates to make playing Clickbait Tycoon awesome. Today's update is aimed at quality of life and a temporary overhaul to writers (more on that in a moment) and is likely to be the largest patch of the week.We'll be busy fixing other important bugs as they come up to slip into new builds in the 0.5.0 era, but most work this week will be working on the 0.6.0 update that is coming in September so apologies if it feels like we're being less reactive to your reports.Most of these things are small changes but worthwhile. Let's jump into the patch notes!StatsThere has been a bit of a "stat squish". Numbers were getting out of hand too early and this is a change that was going to come with the release of the 0.6.0 update but I've ported it in earlier.The goal is to make your writer stats matter more instead of just seeing massive numbers that don't provide any meaningful gameplay changes.It's fun to complete quests instantly, but it should require a lot of things to go right before that happens and not happen as "early" as it has been.With this, luck has also been tweaked so it isn't "as good" as it previously was in 0.5.2. Let us know what you think about how things feel. The goal though is not to have the game finished in a day.BossesBosses now are more difficult with each layer of prestige.Let us know how it feels. Before the challenge of fighting bosses went away very quickly.The WriterMultiple writers are now accessed through a new tab interface to make the screen less visually cluttered.Clicking any paper doll slot pops a small quick-equip grid right at the slot, showing every stash item that fits.Writers now live in tabs. One character sheet on screen at a time instead of the possible five.Added an animated cursor to empty writer item slots when you have equipment that could be equipped in the slot.You can now send additional writers on ...

1.0.4.50 - fix some invisible text in light mode - improved the description of day climb challenge - new mouse design (can be disabled in settings)

**Game clarity and QoL** - Added a new guided tutorial accessible from the title screen. More advanced sections to come soon. - Reworked the cargo route and send interfaces screens into a simpler design - Reworked building descriptions into simpler, clearer explanations and stat breakdowns - Added explanations for diplomatic relationships in the relations matrix - Build queue forecasts improved (now accounting for astra upkeep). New total deficit, "to ship" and excess displays were added - Added a safer settlement destruction flow. **Bug Fixes** - Fixed a bug where stations were always too slow for intercepts, you can now use stations to intercept normally - Fixed build queues appearing busy when nothing was building. - Fixed Split across lanes creating phantom zero ship training batches. - Smoothed combat round behaviour and fixed mixed owner force attribution. (no more 'cliffs' where adding 1 ship to combat changes losses a lot)
