This July 17, 2026 update brings the reworked War System V2: AI declarations now come with explicit casus belli and war goals, wars are pushed toward the negotiating table by war exhaustion and distress, peace settlements are enforced based on the outcome, and new mechanics arrive: capital fall crises, forced conversion wars, and cultural unification wars. How to switch between V1 and V2: Newly generated worlds use War System V2 by default. Existing saves keep their original war system: old saves still load as V1 and show a notice on load. They are never switched automatically. The switch is in Map Editor → Global Commands → AI Global Configuration: War System V2 (This Save): switches the war system of the current save. Confirming will force-end all ongoing wars, and the choice is stored with this save. War System V2 (New Games): sets the default war system for newly generated worlds. It persists across sessions and does not affect the current game or existing saves. The legacy V1 war system remains fully available, and you can switch back at any time. Casus belli and war goals: AI declarations now require a casus belli and war goals: Territorial Conquest, Annexation, Subjugation (vassalization), Cultural Unification, and Forced Conversion. Territorial Conquest adapts to the balance of power: evenly matched attackers wage opportunistic occupation wars and keep what they hold, while overwhelming attackers claim a connected stretch of border provinces that is ceded in the settlement even if never occupied. Claimed provinces are picked along the shared border first, then expand inland when more are needed; without a land border, claims start from the nearest landable coast. With an overwhelming advantage (about 3x strength) over a small state, the AI prioritizes an outright annexation war, significantly reducing cases where one conquest is split across several wars. Added the Unifier character trait: rulers with this trait prioritize cultural unification wars against s...
Ladies and gentlemen, friendly: My second game: One Hundred Nights of Alchemy: Hanging Up to Cultivate Immortals is about to start testing, and it will be released on Steam after the testing is completed. If interested, you can join the group to participate in the internal test at the end of this month. Meanwhile, the next update for Wanjie will be released around July 30th. Thank you for your support. This update has numerically enhanced the exclusive abilities of some unique level heroes, narrowing the strength gap with recent new heroes. Optimize the reincarnation experience, treasure box experience, and cancel the restriction that only one player can play at the Avenue level. The specific content is as follows: 1. Optimize the reincarnation experience, the following materials will be retained after reincarnation: universal materials (including eye formation stones), chaotic artifact materials, elixirs, and herbs. (Formation level, spirit pet level/skill book/clear dew fruit are not included in this update) 2. Optimization of Tianji Treasure Box. The player selects the target level (Fan/Spirit/Xuan/Tian/Sheng/Dao, default spirit level) at the top left, clicks "Auto Fill" → the system clears the current selection, and randomly mixes all held resources to obtain the value of that level (+5% redundancy) 3. The Sage of Taiqing: One Qi Transforms Three Clearances. The increase in attack damage has increased from 100% to 500%. After activating the "One Qi, Three Cleans" function, the attack damage bonus of Dao Zu is significantly increased, and the output ability is significantly enhanced during the duration. 4. Fuxi, He Tu Luo Shu. The divine damage bonus value is increased by 10 times. During the period of unfolding the Hetu Luo Shu, the "Divine Damage Enhancement" effect obtained by all friendly forces was greatly enhanced, and the team's divine output ability was comprehensively improved. 5. Luo Sui, the demon path devours. Increases the target's additional damage ...

To all our supporters of *Herbal Tea King*: Hello everyone, we are HerbTeaMan, a small three-person independent development team. Looking back at the project's inception, from a small idea with limited marketing resources and a small development budget, it was every crowdfunding supporter who trusted the story of Lingnan Humid Street that gave us the confidence to complete *Herbal Tea King*. From the suggestions and help we shared during the crowdfunding phase to the continuous follow-up on development progress and the understanding of our small team's shortcomings, we have cherished every bit of support. Thanks to everyone's crowdfunding, the game's content has become more complete: more storylines, more detailed Lingnan cultural elements, better music and atmosphere, and many optimization ideas have all been incorporated into the final version.

Hello captains,Big balance change this patch and also a rework on the engines. See balance for details. And of course we are looking forward to hearing your feedback / experiences with these changes.Update availabilityThis update is still under active development. As such, it is only available if you switch to the beta branch of Vanguard Galaxy to test out these new changes. Instruction on how to install the beta updates can be found at the bottom of this post.Added/Changes- New Ship: Redemption-Class Size 6 Battlecruiser (Spirit Design)- New Ship: Decrodan-Class Size 6 Battlecruiser (Varlis Construct)- Changed some UI elements in the HUD and hangar overview- Added Medium Hangar Bay recipe- Destroyer size and higher now have different side thrusters, better suited for their size- Added smoke trails to main thrustersBalance- Big balance change: We removed the existing formula that reduced damage output of extra turrets beyond the first. We felt this current calculation was not clear to the player and also hard to explain why having more turrets reduces damage output. So in order to balance this change we instead increased HP levels of enemies, asteroids and salvage. Early game is still the same, but from level 10 an increase of HP is introduced that will presist all the way to the higher levels. The player receives the same increase in HP, so the intent is that battles will be the same length as they are currently. We of course look forward to your feedback on this change. For those with high level patrol and bounty levels, this could have a big impact on the current performance. Let us know what your experience is for the level of your patrol.- Engine thrust stat and working reworked. Engines also get a rotational and side thrust stat. This will make carriers fly a lot better, but it might also lead to some crazy fast ships. :) Even sized ships (2,4 and 6) also get a new hull bonus representing them having extra engines and thus a buff of their thrust stats. Let us ...
Hello everyone! 👋We're already halfway through July, and honestly? Seeing how many of you are counting down the days for the update has been incredible. Quick clarification before we dive in though: this is a devlog, not the update itself! But... mark your calendars, because after a long wait, we can officially confirm the release date is October 30th, 2026 - Leaf it Alone's 1st anniversary. Circle it, count down to it, we're just as hyped as you are! 😎 We've been sitting on this date for a while, and it feels good to finally say it out loud. October 30th isn't just a release day for us - it's the day this whole thing started. And it feels worth saying there's no publisher nor any big corporation behind Leaf it Alone. It's just us, a small team that only formed last year! Getting to hand you a free update on our own anniversary means more to us than we can really put into words 🎉 More Than Just LeavesThe Castle map is shaping up to be a little bit different from what you're used to. Alongside the usual leaf collecting, we're adding a handful of small activities scattered around the map. Think of them as little breathers - moments where you can put the rake down for a minute and do something else, before going back to clean up more leaves.We're not ready to show off everything yet (some of it we'd rather you discover in-game), but here's a peek at two activities we can talk about right now!OptimizationFollowing up the passive simulation performance enhancements from the first devlog, we took our time to inspect what could be improved when interacting with a large number of leaves simultaneously. To our surprise, quite a lot! It's difficult to provide consistent framerate comparisons, due to the nature of what's being optimized, but blowing all Greenhouse leaves through the Maze to its inlet doesn't scare us to death anymore! At least with the minimum hardware requirements being met 😅 It's important to provide this, not only because it will enable more people to fully...
Limitless Survivor will launch on Steam on Friday, July 24, 2026, at 12 AM PDT / 8 AM BST.Thank you for your continued support of Limitless Survivor.

Hello Again Talented Gamers!We're still hard at work on the 1.5 update and we have two topics to run over in today's devlog! So let's not waste any time and take a look...ComponentsLast devlog we introduced Talent Chests and mentioned there would be a new type of consumable that you could expect to find inside them!Components are looted from chests and stored until you consume them. They do all things talent tree.. It might be enhancing your next Talent Package or even skipping through the Talent Tree Ninja style...Higher rarity chests contain even more powerful components helping you really break the rules of Talented... As if you needed another reason to track down a Gold Chest, check out Antenna!New Talent TreesThese become even more interesting when coupled with our second experimental feature of the devlog... New Talent Tree shapes...The circle Talent Tree will give you a variety of routes to take with Portals appearing in completely random directions. The Switch component is extremely useful on this tree!Don't look down! With the descending Talent Tree you'll want to watch your step, but if you do you'll be rewarded with an increased chance to find rare talents the lower you go!These special tree generations will have a chance to appear after you enter your first Portal, so they should add some extra variety for people who've seen it all before when it comes to Talented.... Better yet we have a couple of extra special "lucky" trees that you might stumble uponAnd that's about it for this entry in the devlog! Of course there are more components and talent tree shapes for you to find when the update drops! Until next time...Stay Talented

Update 1.0.48 adds two new ambient sounds and improves a few details around the Grove.New ambient soundsWe added two new sounds to the ambience collection:Brown NoiseDeep Brown NoiseBrown Noise has a soft, steady sound with more low frequencies than white noise, while Deep Brown Noise offers an even deeper and more bass-heavy version.

Hey everyone, This is one of the biggest updates since launch. Two headline features, a pile of long-standing bug fixes, and a full save system audit under the hood. Your wheel drops now actually land in your Steam Inventory This one is embarrassing and important. Wheel drops were supposed to appear in your Steam Inventory since day one. They never did, for anyone. The grant call we used only works for developer accounts, so it worked in every test and failed silently on every real machine. That is fixed, and it changes more than it sounds: New wheel drops now arrive as real Steam Inventory items, tradable and marketable. Wheels you already unlocked in the game are backfilled automatically. Just play with Steam running and your collection will sync to your inventory over your next sessions. Ownership is now two way. If you sell or trade a rim away, you lose it in the game too. If you buy one from the Market or a trade, it unlocks in the game without a drop. Selling something actually costs you something, which is what makes buying worth it. If a wheel you earned does not show up in your inventory after a couple of sessions, ping me on Discord with your Steam name. About that 5,000,000 km achievement I have seen the thread thanks to Wightie, and I did the math. At realistic play speeds, 5 million kilometers is roughly 25,000 hours of active driving. That was never going to happen organically, and I am not pretending otherwise. So here is the deal: once you own 150 cars, a new option appears in Settings that lets you buy mileage with credits, at 10 credits per km. It counts toward the odometer and every distance achievement, including the 5M. It does NOT count on the distance leaderboard. Bought kilometers will never outrank driven ones there. Distance counters that quietly stopped counting The "km bug" reports were real, and there were several separate causes: a precision bug that froze the lifetime distance accumulator on long saves, the same bug freezing the sessio...

Hi everyone,Finally It's Chopping Time!I can't wait to read your feedback & reviews, as right now I feel the game is in it's best state ever, but maybe you'll have fresh new ideas I didn't had for new secondary game modes, or fun stuff you'd love me to add, or maybe you'll just want to tell me you'll spend the rest of the year on my game while completely forgetting about the rest! God only knows!? Or you know!I'm starving to know what you think about it, and I wish I made things right so that it is not just a great game to play once, but an addictive one to play a lot!Let me know how you are getting on it!And happy chopping time!Alexandre :)
