DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP
We also updated our Roadmap, the details are below.
Just like the last few major updates, the next one, “Rags to Riches”, will focus primarily on systemic changes, adding a number of new mechanics and improving upon the existing ones. We plan to release it next year: among other things, the update will feature the long-awaited Caravan system, revamped contracts, better dungeon generation, and tweaks to the economy.
After that, there’ll be “Venom in the Waters”, which will introduce another biome to the game, a new boss, a new magic school, and a whole new dungeon type (along with its own enemy faction).
