Hi! 👋
First, we'd like to thank you all for trying our demo and sharing your feedback 💬
We're aware of several issues and are working to address them to offer the best possible experience.
This first patch focuses on the most frequently reported problem: onboarding/tutorial clarity and the overall understanding of some mechanics.
The game now starts with a more classic flow: a main menu, followed by a dedicated tutorial that is skippable and replayable
It will help you better understand the game and fight the fire! 🔥
On a related note, many of you didn't understand the upgrade conditions for Dens. The "depth" actually referred to the radius of painted area required around the Den. While we like this feature, we've chosen to temporarily remove it and bring it back later with a deeper and better integration.
A quick RTC is now triggered when a Biome evolves to help you notice that threshold 🌿
Some other minor fixes have also been made; you'll find the full list below 👇
We're excited to work on the next iteration with new features to come
In the meantime, feel free to (re)play the demo and share your feedback!
