Update 0.4.8: Summary
This is a shorter update than usual as, internally, we've started working on the 0.5 branch. As usual with the 0.4.x updates, the goal here is to make the user interface more friendly while fixing the few remaining oddities/bugs. We've added more colorful and useful help tool-tips (more to come), added some feedback to show which zone/room is complete or not.
Additionally, we fixed a major issue on Turkish language systems which prevented the game from running at all. Thanks to the two users who reported the problem, it's not something we could have detected on our own.
General Notes
While we're still going to post additional patches for the 0.4 version, they will grow smaller in sizes as we're now focusing on the 0.5 version which will add a bunch of new features and content (underground layer, realistic farming, proper tutorial being the big ones).
The initial 0.5 version should be made available before 2019.
