This patch focuses on making the UI more intuitive and the game more controller-friendly. It took me longer than expected, as I had to do an in-depth rewrite of the focus and navigation logic, and experiment a bit to find an intuitive configuration. For long-time players: the mouse buttons in combat have been swapped, left click now gives the basic orders. I think it's fast to get used to this…
I received a few crash reports on the latest version, and they took some time to diagnose because there were no logs. I’ve now managed to reproduce the reported issues, and this patch fixes them: - Fixed a crash that could occur when opening the “Hire” window - Fixed a crash on launch affecting players who had played the demo two years ago and are now reinstalling - Improved the “Hire” UI to he…
This update focuses on two main things: · Visual improvements : your gobs now have eyes · Much higher replayability with new campaign starts and the Iron Gob mode New campaign starts: When beginning a campaign, you can choose from several starting options: · The normal start. · Start with 5 gobs, skipping the early-game “tutorial” quests in exchange for higher gob wages. · Start with the Chosen…
Update 1.4 brings a major rework of the God’s Path system, new quests and lore, and a few new achievements to challenge you! God’s Path Rework When making choices in many dialogs, you may get the opportunity to advance one of the three God’s Paths: Nurturing, Nerdy, or Sadistic. These paths already change the gobs available for hire, but we felt, and some players told us, that following a path…
Main changes · Spells rework: - spells no longer have a level. Upgrading a spell / picking it on several mage towers gives additional casts per cycle. - mage tower allow to choose one of three spells. - make most spells more powerful (often targeting several gobs instead of just one) - a bit less mage towers on the worldmap. · makes "what are the news" more often relevant · skill altars: cost c…

More bug fixes, and starting to improve UIs for controllers. - Mitigation for "Buggy Fog of War on reload": On some machines, the fog of war would sometimes fail to save correctly. If you observe a buggy-looking fog of war after reloading a save, go to the "Save" menu and click the "Fix Fog of War" button in the top right. It will regenerate fog of war almost identical to what should have been…

After six months without updates, we are thrilled to announce the release of the next big update to Gobs and Gods! This patch focuses on enhancing tactical combat. We’ve added a much wider variety of enemy mobs and reworked almost all existing enemies. These changes should make the late game far more diverse and challenging. Additionally, we’ve revamped several traits and skills that felt under…
This is a minor patch containing only one fix, as the upcoming changes in the pipes are not yet ready and will take some time to complete: · Fixed statue effects that were not correctly applied to goblins
Gameplay and balance - Moods and Whims: - your goblins mood will evolve, from "Brooding" to "Cheerful", depending on your actions. The mood will provide a few small bonuses, and goblins in bad mood are more likely to activate their defects. - goblins in good mood may sometimes become "Obsessed", triggering a mini quest you can complete to keep the gob happy (and get rewarded by a small but perm…

Following a common player request, I've configured cloud saves for Gobs and Gods. I have to admit, it was easier than I expected—Steam has really done a great job with this! If you run into any issues with the saves, here are the details: - The saves are located in this folder: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Gobdot\saves - Each subdirectory represents a saved game. - This…
Since the release two months ago, we've gathered a lot of player feedback, which has helped us identify ways to improve Gobs. We've already released a series of small updates with fixes and quality-of-life improvements based on player suggestions, but a larger patch was needed to address game balance. This patch is thus designed to correct all the balance issues which were reported or which we…
A few changes while preparing a bigger balance patch: - fix foot sculptor quest when first killing arrogant sculptor - increase max mob size to get more diversity on hard late game - clarify which armors are light - fixes in mobs autoscoring - refactor mobs definitions
- fix crash on reload after quitting in the middle of a gob order - improve upgrader ui (sorry, did not re-equip upgraded item yet) - fix worldmap camera locked on player - fix fleeing gob moving toward enemy - lower sadistic increase for dismissing a gob - tuning melee gobs ai range in RT, so that they move in front of archers.
Since the release one month ago, we have been actively iterating based on players' feedback and suggestions. Our primary focus has been improving the UI and enhancing the overall player experience. Next, we plan to address game balance and difficulty, aiming to provide a rewarding challenge for all players, from casual gamers to hardcore enthusiasts and even sadistic goblin gods. Following this…
