Hello, Stone Ragers!
We’re happy to announce our second content update for Stone Rage. Our first month went great, we put great effort into this update, but there's surely lots more work to be done to make the game a long-lasting experience!
Here’s a little highlight of the most important changes:
- Construction Decay System
- Damaged Constructions Visuals
- Constructions with stairs
- Construction placement Visual Feedback
The design goal behind the Decay System is to prevent the world from overbuilding. It also challenges the players to look out for their home. This is the first implementation of the system and it will be improved further as new patches are rolling out.
As the constructions are getting more and more damaged, the wear will show. They visually become more and more broken too.
We also added special foundations and floors with stairs attached to them. This way it’s both easier to enter your base and design multiple story buildings.
The construction system is a key element to the game. It should be as convenient as possible. For this reason we also added a visual feedback on the hud that explains why can’t you place your construction.
We will be rolling out more large content patches every month with hotfixes as needed. Take a look below at new in this version of Stone Rage!
