Hi everyone!
I'm back at it again, working on a new patch for Widget Inc.
So far, most updates have focused on Prestige and other endgame mechanics - so I felt it was time to give the new player experience some much deserved love as well. So if you're looking to pick the game up for the first time, or are thinking about starting a new save file, it might be worth waiting a little while longer!
Strange rumblings have been shaking the ground beneath your feet for a while now. At first, the Troglodytes appeared - strange, primitive humans that sought to destroy everything you've built. But now, the tremors have started uncovering even more remnants of an ancient civilization. And this time, you will be able to reap the rewards a lot more directly.
Along with the new Vaults which should seriously speed up the early game, there's also a host of other changes: New Prestige unlocks, new achievements, and a bunch of other little tweaks designed to improve the early game experience. And for the ultra-long-game players: A little something called Interplanetary Cosmodrome. Whatever could that be...?
Stay tuned! If all goes well, and nothing explodes along the way, Patch 1.4.5 should be ready for release in early June.
Kingdom Inc. Demo
A few days ago, I released the demo for my next upcoming solo project: Kingdom Inc.
It's not a direct sequel to Widget, but I do think that the "incremental automation" gameplay loop gives a lot of the same feeling, that satisfying addicting loop of automating the manual hard work and lazily reaping the rewards in the end. Why not give it a try while waiting for the next Widget Inc. patch?
