Hello Elders!
I got some more balance changes in before the end of the week and was eager to see what you thought, so here we go! This is focusing again on Wanna, but we also have some Darwin changes. For Wanna, this update should give you a nice baseline of coins for when you get to summer. For Darwin, I mainly added a few more exotic buildings to the tree to make him more interesting.
Remember, you need to start a new run to see the changes!
Also, for Controller and Deck users, I added a new Steam Input command to allow opening the Expedition panel, you can assign it to your preferred Steam Deck Layout (I'm working on making it the official configuration, Steam Input is always a bit weird to work with!)
Have fun!
Michele
