2 Year Anniversary!
Hello, Catalysts!! It's been 2 years since release! Boy, time flies, doesn't it? As I said in the Dev Update , this game's pretty much done-and-done! I'm real satisfied with where it's ended up and the reception it's got. Still, cool milestone! I had to post SOMETHING for it. Act

v2.4c - Better Backups

Hello, Catalysts! This update's intended to help the game be a little more self-sufficient. I noticed some very rare bugs where some save files would be partially corrupted. To help with that, I've beefed up the backup system and added a Load Backup menu in the title screen.
There's also a couple other bits of UI improvements; Steam screenshots should now work again (yay!) and I added a "time remaining" section to the loading screen. This is a...partial fix. I noticed a (again, very rare) bug where the loading screen would get stuck and I'm unsure if it's just processing a lot of time or if it's legit getting stuck somewhere. With that change, if it happens again (IF...) then that'll help narrow it down.
It's also just really cool to watch how much time it's simulating.
MENUS/UI:

The title screen now includes a menu for loading backup files. There are 5 layers of backups as well as one that's made just before starting a new moon.
If a file fails to load, it now attempts to load backups more reliably.
The "catching up..." phase of loading now displays how much time is left to simulate.
Fixed steam screenshots being disabled.

Lepioid Update: Been a bit!
Hello, Catalysts! It's been a while, hasn't it? I hope everyone's been enjoying the game in its current state! Honestly, this silly lil' idle game did much better than I ever thought it would. Thanks! but that begs the question...what have I been up to in the meantime? What about
Hello, Catalysts! It's been a while, hasn't it?
I hope everyone's been enjoying the game in its current state! Honestly, this silly lil' idle game did much better than I ever thought it would. Thanks!
but that begs the question...what have I been up to in the meantime? What about the game? Will X bugs ever be fixed????
What has Lepioid LLC been doing?
if the game hasn't been updated, what have I been doing? Well, recently, I got together with some cool friends and made another game: Dreams of Aether! It's a fun little microgame collection that was a blast to work on. Check it out here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3463050/Dreams_of_Aether/
Once we got that all finished, I kinda had to take a break from gamedev, haha. It was kind of a marathon! But obviously I'd never stay away forever, so I'm looking to get back into the thick of it. Make some new things, update some old things, all that fun stuff.
What about Settlemoon?
I think Settlemoon's pretty...setttled at this point! It's got a good amount of content and it's MOSTLY smoothed out. (i'll get to that in a bit.) I do have a lot of stuff that I think could be changed about the weird idle-townbuilder formula, but I think that's something better saved for a sequel or spiritual successor. Believe me, there's a LOT of stuff behind the scenes that I wanna do with Settlemoon's world, still.
Also, I have an Android port in the works! It's in a PRETTY good state but I'd still need to confirm everything on the port works and finalize everything on the storefront and legal end. When I think it's ready to release, I'll let you guys know!
Bug fixes?
I'm aware of some rare bugs that are pretty game-ruining! Unfortunately due to the rarity and how much of the game's effects take time to happen, it's really hard to reproduce anything. I'm still gonna take measures to fix them, though! Here's what I'm planning:

Much more robust save backups
Better file management (manual backups and file select)
Failsafe for getting stuck on "catching up..."
The actual timeframe of fixing these I'm not entirely sure of yet; unfortunately bugfixes are something that take a mysterious amount of time. So for now I'm chalking it up to "soon(tm)".
That's everything for now! Thanks for reading this, and again, thanks for sticking with my silly lil' game for so long!

v2.4b - Outlines and Onboards
Hello, Catalysts! So, technically this is a smaller patch, hence why it's v2.4b and not v2.5. There's no new big features or buildings or anything in this, but there's a lot of little changes that add up, and some of them affect a lot of what you're looking at. Namely: Text outli
Hello, Catalysts!
So, technically this is a smaller patch, hence why it's v2.4b and not v2.5. There's no new big features or buildings or anything in this, but there's a lot of little changes that add up, and some of them affect a lot of what you're looking at.
Namely: Text outlines!! Adventurer names and button labels have outlines on the text now, which changes the "visual identity" of the game a lot IMO. I'm a bit of a stickler for visual details.
I also rewrote the tutorial card to make it flow a lot better and unlock in piecemeal; i noticed a lot of players just skimmed through the card and forgot about it, since they didn't have any context for what they were reading. Now it should stay a lot more relevant!
UI:

Held items are a little more...glowy.
Added new cooler-looking UI for hold clicking.
Adventurer nametags and button numbers have outlines now! Extra readability.
Fixed a 0 showing up when placing a building.
BUILDINGS:

Added a new animated hint to SQ4's building related to the hold clicking change.
SQ4's building now triggers a save when activated.
Refined SQ1's update popup a little so it doesn't have an awkward empty space.
Nerfed update rates of SQ3's buildings to balance out with the decor buffs. (that got ridiculous.)
The bloodmoon inn can now hold every item a normal inn can.
Fixed warehouses not triggering when they only have items.
Fixed warehouses rarely filling a shop with an item that wasn't already in there.
PROGRESSION:

Redid the tutorial card with new dialogue, rearranged pages and an extra page to help with pacing.
The tutorial card now hides most pages and is shown piecemeal as the pages become relevant.
Fixed milestones popping up on the prestige screen.
Fixed SQ7 not saving its completed status through prestiges, causing it to start and immediately finish.

v2.4 - Tidying Up(date)

Hello, Catalysts! Hope those cold winter nights are treating you well. Or if you're on the southern hemisphere, those warm summer nights. I'm not jealous.
Here's an update that smooths a lot of things out. Most notably is the Full Restock feature; in the Dropped Items menu, you'll find a big bag full of stuff. Dropping that on a shop will automatically cram every item it can from your dropped items into that building, meaning you can restock a building you just placed (or replaced) REALLY quickly.
Besides that, there's a lot of weird UI things fixed! Nothing super revolutionary on its own but it should add up to be a smoother experience overall. Crash fixes, guild fixes, UI adjustments, new options, all that good stuff!
ADVENTURERS:

Added 5 new hats and heads.
More kobolds will show up after clearing certain things.
Friends without names now display a more generic name with "BUD 1", "BUD 2", etc. They're your buds :)
BUILDINGS:

Placing a building over a blueprint of itself will simply delete the blueprint instead of picking it up.
Fixed guildhalls displaying the level of the building and not the guild.
Dumping items into the incinerator now gives you 1 second per item.
Fixed a guild issue where picking a raid would only consider the class of the last member.
Fixed guild members signing up for multiple guilds at a time.
Post offices now show a small profile picture of the NPC that dropped off the mail.
Fixed the ferris wheel using a smaller collision box when placing it than when actually placed.
MENUS (ADDITIONS):

Added a Quick Restock item to the Dropped Items menu. Dropping this onto a building will restock every possible item from your storage into it.
Added new game options: "Menu Friction" and "Camera Friction". These adjust how fast those slow to a stop after swiping them. If you want your swipes to send the menus farther, lower this setting.
Added the "Held Item Locks Camera" game option. With it, tapping will not grab the camera when holding a building or item, and hovering near the edge of the screen will scroll. This option makes touchscreen controls a little smoother.
MENUS (FIXES):

Fixed a crash when trying to select a pet from an empty outfit history slot.
Menus are now more strict on swiping down to close. You need to actually swipe downwards for it to close; diagonals will keep it open.
Updated the seasonal pawn shop's icon to show that it's different from the regular one.
You can now hold click on buildings to pick them up in the Buildings menu.
Fixed a visual bug with the Dropped Items menu saying you're about to grab an item from a button with 0 on it.
Placing a monster on a quest in Scout mode now switches it to Open.
Clicking on a quest scroll while holding something no longer cycles its status.
TOUCHSCREENS:

Held mats/items no longer float to your tapping position if you're tapping a menu.
Held items now float towards your avatar similar to how other held things do.
Fixed quest monsters zooming in from offscreen when grabbed.
PROGRESSION:

Menu explanation cards don't appear until you're done with the tutorial. It was a little frontloaded.
Unlocking an achievement statue will refresh the buildings menu if it appears in the chosen building filters.
Fixed SQ1's requirements always being the same.
The post-Boss 4 storycard (the one with big pages) now has a larger click detection area when displaying said large pages.
Fixed a boss quest losing a completion when the game is closed and reopened and it isn't repeating.
Fixed Rose looking at the wrong button during the building tutorial.
MISC:

Slightly updated some resource icons. (honey and batteries use a specific black color now instead of adaptive, just like slime and glass.)
Update popups no longer show up on full-town screenshots.
Update popups now delete old ones if there's enough of them to keep popping up for 30 seconds. (that's a lot of updates!)
The friends list now loads at the very start of launching the game, ensuring they stay loaded in weird cases where loading into town is interrupted for some reason.
Added an extra hint to a hint card.
Added [brackets] to some building category names for linguistical consistency.

Hello! Just some quick fixes for some pretty important things. Deleting buildings permanently is pretty bad.
BUILDINGS:

Fixed buildings not going back into storage when you remove them with another building.
Fixed the ferris wheel leaving behind the base when removed via the renovator. (It was actually left behind when you delete it normally, just invisible. Whoops!)
Fixed the phonograph not being solid.
When the town is renovating, the camera only moves to the newest building's position when it's offscreen.

v2.3 - The Renovator Update

Hello, Catalysts! This update's got some very highly sought-after improvements for how building things works.

Most notably, Decorations have had a huge rebalancing. They're now a lot stronger and more interesting to place down; As a decor takes up more space, the range it reaches gets further while the boost it provides gets weaker. This means you can get a LOT of decor overlapping one building to supercharge it.

Not only that, there's now what I call the Town Renovator! You now have three little snow globes in the buildings menu. Using one of these will swap out your ENTIRE town with whatever you have already stored in there. It's a really fast way to change your town's layout, or just bulldoze everything and try something new.

That's the most notable changes, but there's more than that! Here's the full patch notes:

BUILDINGS (Features):

Added a Town Renovator! You can swap out your town layout using 3 different slots, letting you quickly clear out or change up your town.
Added a phonograph. It's buildable late in NG+ and plays a certain someone's tracks after their work is done.
Attempting to place a building over multiple others now stores all overlapping ones (and you still pick up the closest one)
A couple more decorations are now paintable. (Boss 4's table and candle, as well as some seasonal decor)
Added a secret to a building. (Hint: Bubble)
Pawn shops now offer stacks of 5 materials instead of single materials, making them more worth it for the real estate.
Warehouses now accept up to 12 sellable items and will attempt to distribute them to refill stores as well as materials.

BUILDINGS (Adjustments):

Buffed overall decor range and strength. Now as a general guideline, the more space the decor takes up, the larger its range gets while the weaker its boost gets. There's a couple exceptions though to keep some interesting niches.

Previous decor stats:

Type	Range	Boost
Extra Tiny (12px wide)	10	30%
Tiny (16px)	10	30%
Small (24px)	30	20%
Medium (32px)	30	20%
Large (48px)	30	40%
Huge (64px)	30	40%
Trees	30	20%
Lamps	30	10%

New decor stats:

Type	Range	Boost
Extra Tiny (12px wide)	20	16%
Tiny (16px)	14	40%
Small (24px)	38	34%
Medium (32px)	60	28%
Large (48px)	80	22%
Huge (64px)	100	16%
Trees	50	30%
Lamps	120	6%

Slowed down the base rate of building updates: 20-25 minutes -> 25-30 minutes
Adjusted stats of some decor that didn't match the standard of the rest of the decor.
Increased level of T1 class shops, 1.0 -> 1.5
Fixed some incorrectly-colored building menu icons.
Buildings that hold items but don't sell them no longer contribute the items to town level. (refineries and the warehouse are the only buildings that do this.)

MENUS/UI:

Added building UI displaying how decor affects them when you place something down.
Added update popups. These appear with a chime whenever something happens from real-time updates. Visits, purchases, taking quests, etc. (You can turn these off in the options menu.)
Added new UI to forbidden knowledge to make its effects clearer.
Fixed a long slowdown during judgement if you have an absurd amount of money from the previous run.
Fixed the camera during the ending breaking on very very wide windows.
Added visual variants for the loop badges when you get a lot of them.
Reading cards now makes the music quieter.
The screenshot buttons now display the town stats (if the option with menus visible is used) and the amount of loops completed.
Fixed the Menu-enabled screenshot button not displaying menus that were offscreen in-game.
The building menu now displays the number of each building placed in town.
Added more material sprites to one of the guide cards to hopefully encourage experimentation a little more.

PROGRESSION:

Increased requirement for the Decorator achievement, 110% -> 200% total buffs (to account for decor being way stronger now)
Added an NG+ reward building for Boss 6's request
Loading in now checks to see if you're missing any achievement statues, then adds them back.
Fixed the Expansions statue not being unlocked correctly.

ADVENTURERS:

Added sounds to NPCs spawning, making the music quieter for a second.

Hello, Catalysts! It's been one whole year since the game first released, and I couldn't be happier with how everything has gone.
To celebrate, we've updated the game with some anniversary-related things, as well as some good old quality-of-life to hopefully make the early parts of the game easier and less...confusing. Maybe on my next game I should just explain everything with text, haha.
BUILDINGS:

Added 3 new floor types: Brick, Quilt and Classic Rock
Added an anniversary shop! Sells random fireworks and a party hat.
Added a new set of decor! Things hanging on ropes, a new late-game flower, and a FIRE JET. Normal stuff.
Increased capacity per-item of Warehouses, 99 -> 999
Fixed the Incinerator not being solid.
Fixed a Hitching Post decor being buried in the ground.
PROGRESSION:

Some old envelopes have appeared in the menus...They point out the basics of how each menu works. They show up as a hint button on those menus as well, so you can turn that off in the options.
Added more steps to the town expansion so that little task starts much earlier. There's now a trinket associated with it! If you're loading an old save file, it'll consider those already done.
ADVENTURERS:

Added 5 new hats and 5 new heads.
Adventurers have a chance to be very color-coordinated...what do you think determines that?
MENUS:

Added a rapid click function for the Materials menu; you can now hold rapid click to stack up mats EXTREMELY fast.
Added more clarification to the Decor hint card.

Hello, Catalysts! Pretty big update! New buildings, new cards, and a WHOLE lot of little tweaks here and there to make things smoother. If you're playing on the Steam Deck, everything should properly adapt to it now!
Also important is a controls menu! Wow! I'm so adamant on developers adding these, yet I didn't add one to my own game. How hypocritical...UNTIL NOW.
PROGRESSION:

Added a Rabbit & Steel cameo! It should show up after Boss 3 becomes available.
Added Hint Cards that you get as you progress through the game. These should have (still cryptic) hints on how some mechanics work.
(hopefully) fixed the ending not accounting for placed buildings.
Most cards you get are now non-dismissable until you get to the end of them.
Fixed the tutorial card re-view on the main menu playing the unlock animation.
BUILDINGS:

Added a Warehouse! These evenly distribute materials you put in them across town, refilling shop stocks.
Added an Incinerator! These burn up materials and items for a small amount of extra time to the current night.
Added a Grill! It's a lategame variant of the Bakery, though it's not a lot of overlap.
New Decor! A popcorn machine, hitching post, tacky lightup arrow sign, and more!
Clocks now have standard decor properties.
The signal catcher now works a little differently. Once it gets a signal, you hold click on it for a second. After you do that, then it sets ALL elements to 0 and unlocks the signal.
T2 class shops have had their attract rates slightly buffed.
Moths no longer push out of each other if they're past the town borders, so hopefully they don't push out of the screen.
Geode Shops now create a Rock Bag out of 100 pebbles...that sells for as much as 100 pebbles.
Boss 5's material now makes a new item in T1 class shops.
ADVENTURERS:

Optimized offscreen adventurers; they don't update every frame now.
Fixed NPCs holding the wrong card if new cards were added after they spawned (again).
Fixed adventurers walking in place.
Picking up an adventurer while stock displays are open now shows some stats about them and what they've bought.
UI:

Added a Controls menu! You can now rebind your controls. Yay!
The options button is now darker on the title screen so as to be less eye-catching during the intro.
Made various improvements to how controllers handle.
The cursor now snaps to "ENTER WORLD" on controller so you can get in real fast.
Changed how cameo cards look to be a little cooler.
Popup menus now have a nice little animation when they spawn.
There's now a Button Magnifier option. With it enabled, it shows a much larger number when stacking up resources.
Fixed grabbing menus if you're already holding the mouse down.
the "Reset Default Options" button in submenus now only resets the options present in that submenu.
The cursor now shows an indicator when scrolling.
COMPATABILITY:

The game now always starts in fullscreen when in Big Picture Mode.
Fullscreen and window size options no longer appear when on the Steam Deck or other fullscreen-only platforms.
The tutorial's control prompts now adapt to the type of control scheme you're using.
Steam deck and Big Picture Mode now display virtual keyboards when renaming a friend.
Added A+X as a default binding for rapid click on controllers.
QUESTS:

Boss quests are now limited to 300 completions to keep save file sizes consistent.
Fixed being able to add materials to a completed fetch quest.
Increased ice nautilus drops: 6 ice 3 shell -> 10 ice 6 shell
Increased pillow drops: 4 silk 6 feather -> 8 silk 8 feather
Applied save compression to the quests file. You shouldn't notice anything, but still worth noting!
WORLD:

Added several new rare moon variants.
Fixed some names.

There were a bunch of reports of friends lists having some weirdness when it hits the limit. Along with fixing that, I made the file compress the same way others do, which means I can afford to increase the friends limit without changing the file size! Yay!
MENUS:

Increased the friend limit to 125. Have fun!
Fixed the friends list getting all weird if you hit the limit.
Fixed recently-added friends forgetting they're already in town if the game is restarted.
PROGRESSION:

In sidequest 6, fixed an NPC saving incorrectly if the game closes during a crucial moment.
BUILDINGS:

Fixed the giant pillar in NG+ being highlighted as buildable when you can't afford it.
The brewery now shows that materials can be put into it when you hover over them.
TECHNICAL STUFF:

Applied some compression to the friends file. This shouldn't affect anything on your end but I'm writing it down anyway.
Queued up savefiles now set the saving cooldown immediately to prevent a potential frame-perfect double-save. MAYBE that fixes the freezing i've seen people get? We'll have to investigate further to figure out what's causing this.

The exit confirmation menu now waits until the game is done saving to actually close the game.
The exit confirmation menu now suppresses automatic updates like most other menus do.
Cards with objective counters now highlight the counter when showing unlocks. It's also been moved lower.
During the tutorial, the double click prompt now blinks faster.
ADVENTURERS:

You can now click on yourself to interact with buildings like other adventurers do.

Also, that "New Discoveries" tab's weird behavior is fixed. It shouldn't send you into an empty menu anymore.
Also changed a bunch of stuff under the hood that SHOULDN'T affect anything. Everything's proooobably okay.

Clickable town-things (moths, shrines) no longer react on certain menus. (buildings and visitors)
Moths and Beetles now make noises when you click them.

The building filters menu now updates live as buildings are marked as seen.
Changed the name of the "Shops" menu to "Utility" to be more accurate.
Added some missing building filter names.
Fixed menus lagging behind by 1 frame (i think this was caused by a gamemaker update)
Fixed a crash when rearranging friends that are in a guild.
Holding a shovel now hides boss arenas and makes voids transparent.
PROGRESSION:

Fixed the NG+ tutorial having a softlock with checking if you have enough resources to build an Inn.
Fixed the NG+ intro screen putting the score tally on the wrong layer. It now appears behind the menu.

Hello, Catalysts! Version 2.0, The New Moon+ Update, is finally here! This update adds a whole bunch of new things to do once everything's all done and you start NG+. There's also a bunch of QoL and bugfixes to smooth things out regardless of how much you've progressed.
The New Moon+ stuff puts a twist on the usual mechanics you've gotten used to over the course of the game. Perform alchemy, build rides and do more weird stuff! Complete these side-objectives and you'll learn more about Settlemoon's history and inner workings.
If you've got a town in late-game NG+, I'd GENTLY recommend waiting until your next loop to start the new content. It's not necessary, though! You'll just have a real big head-start on the new content due to having a bunch of bosses beaten and stacks of resources. It might be a little overwhelming!

For a more detailed FAQ on starting this update, check out this thread in Discussions.
Patch notes:
HIGHLIGHTS

NG+ STORYLINE ADDED! There is now a variety of new things added to NG+ runs. Existing towns in NG+ will also get this content over time, but I softly recommend trying it on a new loop.
Added new Steam achievements for NG+.
ADVENTURERS

Adventurers can now spawn with uncommon Back cosmetics. Wings and tails!
Adventurers have a very rare chance to drop in.
Adventurers that are leaving town can now be flung into the sky and off the sides.
Fixed NPCs being unable to spawn on the right side of town.
Fixed adventurers walking on air. (sorry)
Once a minute, a low-level adventurer will leave and be replaced by another low-level.
BUILDINGS

Added a Geode Shop! Take a chance with your excess rocks.
The rest of the elemental shrines have been given proper recipes.
Fixed Guildmembers not levelling up if they aren't friends.
When deciding quests, Guildmembers now consider the classes of all of their comrades too.
While guilds will prefer certain quest types, they'll still have a chance of taking unfitting options.
Shrines now constantly release a slow stream of particle effects.
ITEMS

Adventurers now have a chance to buy the default item if a shop's inventory is small enough.
Adjusted endgame item stats to not be so ridiculous.
Adjusted how item stats contribute to the world to make them decay faster overall.
MENUS

Added (optional) Scroll Bars to menus!
Friends and quests now wait for you to stop swiping before being counted as dragged off.
Resource buttons in the Visitors menu now display a negative amount of money, to be consistent with quests.
Storycards now display things that they unlock.
Pressing Back (escape, backspace, etc.) when menus are closed prompts you to close the game.
The World Map now changes color according to the current event.
Added a new *experimental* keybind: Holding both Left click and Right click while on the Visitors menu lets you sweep across the screen and buy any material you hover over.
QUESTS

Reworked how adventurers decide on quests to act like more of a weighted list.
Monsters now attempt to move out of the way of Boss buttons.
Fixed monster quests being overly-preferred by every class.
Class lights on quests are now hidden until you beat the Eye Stalker.
The moth that appears on uncleared bosses now better adapts its color to the boss. Yay!
WORLD

Added Silver Beetles! They spawn in empty spaces and fly away after a few minutes, but if you manage to click on them you get 50 silver. This should help out early game.
Melee and Ranged cocoons now spawn unique moths, which temporarily change the normal moon to slight variants.
An odd constellation appears at the start of a new run...
The language now makes sense. Good luck!
Fixed dead cocoons saving as live moths.
TUTORIAL

The Town guide has been reworked to be a lot more descriptive.
When stocking the inn for the first time, the guide moth now flies to the TOP of the inn.
The tutorial now skips the step where you have to double click a building to open its stock.
The tutorial now has a step that forces the Buildings menu to the Shops category.
ALSO

Revamped controller support. The Left stick now moves freely while the Dpad attempts to snap to buttons.
Fixed the NG+ ending cutscene having a jarring cutoff on super-widescreen windows.
