https://store.steampowered.com/app/4267800/_/ After the last round of playtesting for Bandit Simulator TD, we received a ton of feedback and suggestions from our players! Now, the game has entered the full-content development phase. We'd like to continue sharing some of our recent fixes and progress with you: Advanced Class Branches Moving forward, advanced classes will be developed along four main branches: Strength-based, Agility-based, Intelligence-based, and Production-based. Each branch will further split into specialized sub-routes. For example, the Strength branch alone will diverge into four distinct class paths. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45936264/7f42432bb0d12f085b9592bac266ed8757bc7e7d.png Passive Skills Added We've added passive skills to every class, making the unique characteristics and differences between classes more distinct and tangible. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45936264/c915038527495d90815a4ea9e736455d9779e375.png Rich Combat Skills This time, we've done our best to enrich the variety and visual presentation of combat skills, ensuring that each class's role and purpose truly shine in battle. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45936264/1f421cce1dcc0da5954ac5a019e91cc2704130b9.png We sincerely beg all our brothers and sisters who enjoy Xiao Mang's games to Follow + Wishlist (click, click!) ↑↑↑↑↑↑! Game Introduction TL;DR Keywords: Tower Defense TD + Base Building + Idle Clicker = Addictive & Satisfying This is a simple game that combines "Tower Defense Combat + Base Building + Idle/Clicker" mechanics. The game simulates the development of an ancient bandit stronghold. Combat is based on Tower Defense mechanics, paying homage to (and blending with) several classic genre masterpieces (like the Warcraft RPGs Bandit TD, Element TD, Immortal Simulator, etc.). We've refined and simplified these concepts, combining them with idle/clicker gameplay to deliver an experience that is both "satisfyingly addictive" and "simple and relaxing." Every character acts as a fixed tower. They don't m...

Resolution list fix. Resolution clamping fix. Extra wide resolutions hot fix. Font update for all the languages.

Good news first:The game has reached 10k wishlists! I started making this little game inspired by things I genuinely love and wanted to see more in games: cats (albeit not exactly underrepresented, the more, the better!), libraries, dusty books, and magic!To see it reach and connect so many people is honestly heartwarming; it makes all the work that goes into making a game worth it: the reviews, the feedback, seeing how many of you are still playing the demo... It's amazing.Thank you for all of these things and more.And the not-so-good news:The release date will be delayed by a few weeks: the game will still come out in September, but on the 25th.I apologize to everyone who played and wishlisted the game; I'm terribly sorry to make you wait even longer. This extra time will allow me to finish the game properly, make sure it's balanced, and add more customization options too.Despite having two cats helping me, the truth is... they don't actually do much, and making a game is just a LOT of work for one person, so I hope you will forgive me for the delay (and for blaming the cats, that's lame). Thank you so much, and see you soon in the library! Bye
Patch - v1.0.5Changes:Prestige feels less punishing.Chance purchases and leftover currency now survive era converts, so Tokens / Caps / etc. keep dropping after you prestige. First Power upgrades are cheaper so the new era actually speeds you up. Older saves stuck with Chance at 0 get a small rescue on load.Permanent Auto-Loop is now a tier 2 upgrade.One purchase, permanent auto-loop, and it stays through later prestiges.Shift-click buy max now works on every shop tab, not just Performance.Convert confirmation pop-up now lists what will reset and what you keep. (Including if there is a node-wipe).Pacing has been adjusted to be less punishing.Currencies now no longer cap at 1.84e19.Game will now create a backup of your latest save whenever a patch releases. In case there are issues, patches need to be rolled back, or other situations. Just a precaution to ensure no players lose their progress due to a patch. These are also uploaded to Steam Cloud.These backups will be stored in your SavesDir folder, and named saveData_patch_{versionNo}.bak.json.To restore your data, make a duplicate of the relevant patch backup, delete/rename the existing saveData.json file, and then rename your duplicate backup file to "saveData"Balancing is a major concern of mine right now, so any and all feedback relating to the pacing is greatly appreciated.

Hello everybody!One more update before the big day tomorrow: Hearth and Hamlet launches tomorrow, August 19th, at 5PM UTC+1!apologies about any earlier confusion - the correct time is 5PM UTC +1, rather than UTC.We've spent months getting here, and honestly it still doesn't quite feel real. We are exceptionally excited for launch! Your support has meant to world to us - so thank you everybody!If you haven't wishlisted yet, now's the moment. And, when you jump in tomorrow, we would love it if you could leave an honest review - if you feel like it. It helps us immensely. One more sleep... and tomorrow at 5PM (UTC + 1), it'll be time to dive in and start building!
- Added click-and-hold buying and selling for balls, pins, and workers. - Demo save files created before July 15 will now be marked as "Corrupt". These saves can still be loaded, but we recommend starting a new save for the intended experience. - Thrown balls now appear in red in the Mage Hut info display when you haven't thrown all of your owned balls during the last round. - Removed the Wishlist button from the main menu. - Fixed an issue where the Revolver pin's bullets wouldn't reappear after restarting a round when Auto-Retry was enabled in the Accessibility options. - Fixed an issue where gravity could increase exponentially when Auto-Retry was enabled.
We made something new and it's nothing like this game Hey everyone, Tiny Aquarium has been a strange and lovely thing to work on. Some of you have had a tank running at the bottom of your screen for over a year now, and we still aren't quite over that. We wanted to tell you what else we've been building. Bumpers & Dragons is a pachinko roguelite. You place bumpers on a board, drop balls onto it, and watch them ricochet into something you didn't quite plan. Then you go fight a dragon with it. It is louder than Tiny Aquarium and considerably less relaxing. The free demo is out now! If "drop a ball, watch a chain reaction go off" sounds like your kind of thing, go check it out!
Hello everyone,Here are the main highlights of this update:Feature Adjustments:Added base selling price display to the blueprint details interface.When opening the Blueprint Research Series interface, it now defaults to the tab that has available research points.Optimized the random generation logic for supplier shop items — ensuring that items from all three tiers appear (provided the corresponding resources have been unlocked).Adjusted the display priority of the customer trade interface so it is no longer blocked by the quick-sell button.Added sorting toggle functionality via category icons in certain equipment selection interfaces:Customer Suggestion interface now defaults to sorting by suggestion success rate from highest to lowest.Equipment Refinement / Socketing interface now defaults to sorting by equipment level from highest to lowest.Expedition Dispatch support interface now defaults to sorting by equipment level from highest to lowest.Monster Extermination equipment support interface now defaults to sorting by combat power from highest to lowest.Arena equipment provision interface now defaults to sorting by win rate from highest to lowest.If you encounter any issues during the game, please feel free to join our discord channel to share your experience and suggestions.
