v1.0.1 has been released!
In cases where the continue button is visible and if you saved at the home island, the thumbnail now shows the Home Island instead of the run if no run is in progress, to prevent confusion.
A couple of bugs have been fixed, including one where your skill points would reset to 52. If you encountered this bug previously, you can reset your skill points in the Research screen to get back any lost skill points, fully refunded 100% to your current level. Sorry for any inconvenience caused!
Full changelog:
Save screenshot of Home Island for savefile thumbnail if no run is in progress.
Add 'view save location' for Mac and Linux
Fix savefile version resetting to v0.0.0
Fix custom savefile info screen not translated
Fix SP always resetting to 52 when reloading

v1.0.0 has been released!
It contains some minor fixes and quality of life changes, such as being able to see how many pets you own before purchasing more at the trader.
In the late game stage, I noticed people would spam the same building, so holding SHIFT now allows you to build ten of each building at once.
When placing down buildings, it was more convenient to have shields automatically placed periodically when needed, so a setting was added to do that, but it did not cost materials to build those shields, which has been fixed.
Many of the big buildings and epic buildings were not designed to be moved, and would cause issues when moved. It was also abusable, so they are no longer movable.
Thanks for playing!
Full changelog:
Add ability to hold SHIFT to build 10 buildings at once
Add display to view number of each pet owned while buying pets at the trader
Big buildings can no longer be moved
Remove unbuildable 'F1' Floor in Home Island
Fix 'Auto-place shields' not consuming materials
Fix generator showing energy production tooltip in yellow instead of green
Fix SmallShield update error in playerlog
Fix boats disappearing during story ending cutscenes
Version update to 1.0.0

Hi everyone!
I’m excited that Stormbridge launches in just 12 days! I’ve got a few updates. I’m moving the release one hour earlier.
New launch time (February 16):

Stormbridge has a brand-new launch trailer!
Watch on YouTube
Sneak peek: Sky, Underwater, Tundra
In Stormbridge, you’ll travel through different biomes while trying to figure out what’s behind the storm. The Ocean and the Tundra should already look familiar (I’ve shown them in earlier posts). But I haven’t shared much yet about Sky and Underwater, so here’s a small sneak peek :)
Each biome has its own mechanics:
Sky - deploying helicopters on expeditions
Underwater - mining scraps to manufacture repair bots
Tundra - finding ways to deal with the cold
Thanks for following the game. See you on February 16!

Several improvements, rebalancing and settings have been added.
Changelog:

Cats' happiness boost reduced to 0.1x
Trader now shows orange warning when trading for free
Add eat teriyaki toggle in hunger bar hover panel
Add screen shake toggle
Add 'consumes charcoal' to cookhouse and smelter description
Fix situations where certain tutorial rings on build menu do not show
Fix first saved file on web not showing in menu till a refresh
Teriyaki is needed for construction. But settlers sometimes eat it, preventing you from building what you want freely. A new toggle has been added. Now, you can ~~starve~~ control the diet of your settlers if they eat too much Teriyaki!
It was not very clear that you had to select the coins to buy them, so a red message now shows when you don't do so.
Cats had to be nerfed as they trivialized happiness. Though, you can still get the same effect of the old level 1 cat in the full version by equipping three cats at max level. So hmm.
I would like to thank all of you who've played and given me feedback, and especially thank Radian, Lavan and Jesus Cat for sharing incredibly useful feedback for me! This update was made possible thanks to them. I update this game every week so if you have feedback - you can leave them here on the Steam discussion forums, on our Stormbridge discord channel or to me directly @YYZ on Discord.
These are not the full list of changes I intend to make - I am progressively going to address the points raised - such as displaying better production counters to more accurately determine which resources you're producing/in need of. I haven't forgotten those, I just need some time to work on it.
Thank you for your support. :)

v0.80 is released!

Add night version of main menu
Experimental Mac and Linux builds
Update localization and localization fixes
Fix research panel item count not updating after claiming milestone rewards
Fix tutorial screen pointers un-aligned
Night bridge
I love making beautiful scenery and as I was listening to some melancholic music while raining, I designed this scene!
I thought it was too pretty to leave out of the game, so I decided to integrate it into the main menu, which will now show this randomly.
I love making pretty environments so this was pretty relaxing and fun.
Mac and Linux experimental support
Experimental Mac and Linux versions of the game have been added! Mac may not support advanced 3D graphics - therefore if you notice black squares on the water, go to settings > Disable water reflections.
These are experimental so they're not listed on the storepage for now. I'll do my best to support them. To help me help you, let me know what issues there may be if you try them so I know how stable they are.
Localization fixes
Several text have been updated and I would like to thank all community translators for helping with the game's translation texts! If you'd like to help, you can join the discord to get in touch! And as usual, if you have feedback, leave them here or send them to me @YYZ on Discord if you want to share your ideas or chat! :)
I will continue to make improvements and updates to the game~

v0.79.0 is released!

Trader now sells Pharmacy blueprint
Trader now sells Clinic blueprint
Trader now sells Small Battery blueprint
Small battery is now guaranteed from mid-tier cards after 290m
Change top right UI buttons
Add community translators to home island credits
In Tundra, chick pets award miso instead of teriyaki
Fix fastest time show 4.03 in level select screen
Fix Small battery card not appearing after 290m
To reduce reliance on RNG, the battery card will now have a very high chance to appear after 290m if it is not already unlocked.
Additionally, the trader now sells 3 new blueprints so you may purchase them to unlock essential buildings that you have not yet obtained.
I would also like to thank the community translators for helping out with the in-game translations. I've added your names to the home island and will continue to add more as the game goes - if you wish to help out, you can join the discord and go to the #translations channel!
Upcoming content
In terms of content, I am working on a few new buildings as well. The medium battery and Epic battery will store more electricity than the small battery.
A new resource will soon be added - Lithium, which are required to upgrade these batteries. Along with it, a new epic building, the Lithium Extractor, a plant that harvests Lithium from Iron ore.
Thank you for playing Stormbridge and for your support! I will continue to push weekly updates to make improvements for you all. If you have any suggestions, drop them here, on Steam discussions or to me on Discord.
