Smithing, rebuilt The midgame Smithing grind was the worst offender in the game, and this update tears it down. Metal bars no longer need logs as fuel. You smelt with ore, plus coal from steel on up, and nothing else. Forging tools, weapons, and armor no longer needs planks at all. If you want a chestplate, you need bars, full stop. No side trips through Woodcutting and Crafting just to start smithing. On top of that, smelting a bar is now a single action and grants far more experience, so it is finally worth doing on its own. Start to finish, the smelt and forge loop is several times faster than before. Faster across the board Cooking, Crafting, and Woodcutting all had their experience rates raised to sit in line with the rest of the skills, so no single skill feels like a slog next to its neighbors. Cooking also burns less food while you are still learning a new fish, so more of your catch makes it to the plate. Cook smarter, not harder Cooking no longer eats a matching log for every single fish. Instead you choose which log keeps your fire going, and a higher tier log burns far longer before it needs replacing. A single elder log now fuels dozens of cooks. Your woodpile goes much, much further, and a new readout on the skilling bar shows the log you are burning and how many cooks it has left. Arrow shafts Fletching arrows now starts with arrow shafts, carved from whatever logs you have on hand. A better log yields more shafts per cut. It is a cleaner supply chain, and it means arrows no longer demand one specific log tier. Pick your wood, cut your shafts, fletch your arrows. A new rune, and a new spell The Astral rune joins the Runecraft altars at level 54, filling the long stretch between Nature and Death with its own animated altar. It powers Vengeance, a new passive that turns part of every blow you take back onto your attacker. Keeping a passive active now also trains your Magic as you fight, so the runes you spend in combat are never wasted. The character co...

1. Optimized the world map UI and added hover tooltips for certain interface elements. 2. Fixed an issue where some achievements were not triggered immediately upon meeting their requirements. 3. Added keyboard shortcut hints to certain buttons in the clothing store. 4. The text size setting for Daily Word Study now also applies to example sentences displayed in word hints. 5. Fixed an issue in battle scenes where selecting words faster than character animations could cause the "Instant Mode Off" setting to stop functioning correctly.

Fixed a bug that could cause previously declined family requests to reappear after leaving home and returning. Removed two bugged achievements that were not working correctly for some players.

Hey everyone! It has been a while since my last update, but I come with good news. This post covers a lot of ground, from reworked mechanics to brand new features. Also, The Last Good Boy will be participating in Steam Next Fest from June 15 to 22! Wishlist the game and don't miss it. -> The Blender! -> New Item Attributes. -> New Combat System. -> + New Items. -> In-game Wiki -> Quests Reworked. -> New Minigames! -> News about the Full Game The Blender is a new crafting station that processes items into Juices and Essences. Juices fuel the Combat Portal, and Essences are merged into Orbs to enchant your gear. - Equipment Essences: Obtainable by processing any Equipment. - Tool Essences: Obtainable by processing any Tool. - Green Juice: Obtainable by processing Woods and Fishes. - Gray Juice: Obtainable by processing Rocks, Ores, and Bars. - Purple Juice: Obtainable by processing any Monster Drop. -> Previously: All weapons shared the same attack stat; choosing between melee, ranged, and magic felt pointless. Gear drops were also underwhelming since a duplicate item was always identical to the one you already had. -> Currently: Combat now has three attack types and three defense types: Melee attack / Normal defense Ranged attack / Magic defense Magic attack / Evasion Each attack type counters a specific defense, so your weapon choice actually matters now. We also introduced Equipment Orbs and Tool Orbs. Merge 10 Essences to craft one, and apply it to any item to randomly add up to three new attributes. Every drop now has the potential to be better than what you already have. If you have played Path of Exile, think of it as our version of the Orb of Alteration. -> Previously: The Combat Portal used items as fuel, converted into time. This caused a balance problem since higher-level monsters required the same resources to summon as lower-level ones. -> Currently: The time mechanic and fuel slot are gone. In their place, we added 3 new Item types called Juices and a ne...

Hello, Chroma Engineers!The effort to make this game better continues.Only thanks to all your reports and feedback! Patch Notes - Version 1.9.4GLOBALFixed Bug: Fixed a white screen on startup when offline or behind a firewall.Added: A copyable error screen now appears on a crash instead of a blank screen.Changed: The Bug Hunter achievement now unlocks by opening the report window, so you no longer need to submit a ticket to earn it.NULL / VOID HUNTAdded: A Stats button on the Void Hunt start and pause screens shows your loadout, trap stats, and lifetime totals. Hover any upgrade to see what it does.Added: Depth-run achievements for reaching Void Hunt level 25, 50, and 100, each with its own icon.Added: Pulse ability in Void Hunt. It starts locked - unlock it with the Pulse Capacitor (permanent) or Pulse Bank (run) upgrade. Once unlocked, release the trap to fire a shockwave that clears nearby chaos and vents exposure. It charges over time and faster as you capture dots, shown as a ring around the trap.Added: Pulse upgrades - Pulse Bank (run) and Pulse Capacitor (permanent) unlock and bank multiple Pulses, and Pulse Range (permanent) widens the blast.Changed: The trap-size upgrade is reworked. It no longer grows the trap (which raised chaos exposure and made it a bad pick). It is now Field Tuning: +10% attraction field and -6% capture time per level.Added: Chaos evolves at depth. From level 20 chaos merge into bigger, slower, deadlier Greater Chaos; from level 30 stationary Chaos Orbs grow in place as zones to avoid; from level 40 Hunter chaos relentlessly chase your trap. Use the Pulse to manage them.Added: Chaos Nullifier - a recharging charge (Chaos Nullifier run upgrade, Nullifier Core permanent upgrade) that auto-destroys the next chaos to touch your trap.Added: Rare green Split Dot, unlocked by the Verdant Signal permanent upgrade. Capturing it instantly doubles every white dot on screen.Changed: Golden dots now circle the screen instead of vanishing off the ed...

Added Endless Artifacts. These special artifacts can be endlessly dropped by all artifact yielding mechanics, after all non-T5 artifacts have been collected. There are 3 types: 1. gives +0.5% damage to all dwarves, 2. gives +0.5% gold value to all ores, 3. gives +1 PP. Added new T6 prestige upgrade: King Of The Spire - "Rank 1: When reaching The Great World Spire, the event now automatically starts after 10 seconds. (This was moved here from Primordial Hunger). -Rank 2: The Great World Spire no longer stops you from progressing if you're missing any artifacts. Requires Ascension Rank 1. Rank 2 requires Ascension Rank 5. Added two more ranks to the T6 prestige upgrade "Vault of Gods". Buffed Air Strike damage from 20% to 30% base (thus from 60% to 90% at T4 Nuclear Research). Air Strike rockets now use the Cannon's crit chance (it was static 5% before). Further improved how save file handling works, added a steam cloud rollback protection, and added another .sess.json save file type that keeps a snapshot of the save at session start, so that if all else fails, it at least reverts to that instead of the player losing everything. Alchemy result panel now automatically closes after 6 seconds. The "Delete Save" button and the "Begin Game" button in the prestige screen, now need to be held for a moment to prevent missclicks. Fixed bugs that could sometimes spawn duplicate artifacts. Fixed some GUI and Settings panel issues. Fixed Insatiable Guzzler sometimes working improperly after using Great Inhale ritual. Fixed other various minor issues, such as damage numbers not mirroring for wrecking ball, etc.

Must be unlocked via Rift 61.• New Research Grid - \• New Vial - uses Chapter 6 spelunking pages, and is called Canteen Read.

The first demo update for Defrag Incremental is now live.This update is mostly focused on early player feedback from the demo: making the workday easier to read, reducing friction when checking menus, fixing audio issues, and improving a few UI details.Thanks a lot to everyone who has played the demo and shared feedback. It is helping a lot.ChangesAdded pause the workday timer when opening purchase menus or selecting a new disk.The original behavior can still be enabled again from the Options menu.Changed the workday progress display into a clock.Minutes are now visible, making it easier to judge how much time is left in the day.The end of day report now waits for a mouse click before closing.Moved the Options menu to the main UI so it is easier to find.Fixed a bug where the defrag sound keep playing after the disk was no longer being defragmented.Fixed the same bug with defrag related messages in the lower message feed.Renamed "Main Menu" to "Management".Added an "Are you sure?" confirmation panel before leaving the BIOS.Fixed typos and minor bugs.NotesThe new pause option is meant to support different play styles. Some players may prefer the original version, where time keeps moving to maintain tension. Others may prefer a more background-friendly experience where they can safely read upgrades, compare disks or browse menus.You can choose the behavior from the Options menu.More demo updates will follow as I keep collecting feedback.Thanks again for playing.
