Patch 10 is now available on the Beta Branch!

We have added a new ability for the elemental orb of earth: petrify your poor mortals! Instead of throwing Earth orb around or use it to provide stone to your village you can just hold your left mouse button to let your mortals become immortal (kind of)!

Let there fate be a reminder for others whos in charge here! Or just play bowling with them. Furthermore, we improved the game in several areas based on your feedback.

🛠️ Patch Notes v10

Added general petrifying logic
Added special petrifying stream for Earth thrower
Added Physics handling for petrified mortals
Added logic to unpetrify mortals via healing wonder
Added tooltips for petrifying case
Added special handling of petrification for quest characters
Modified tutorials now representing all four elements
Further AI adjustments, reduced skills on startup with lower progression to endgame
smaller performance improvements related to the GPU Instancing system (Crowd)

An exhibition of mortals transformed and preserved in ancient stone:

Now you can even enjoy a round of bowling when you feel like it:

As always, once the Patch switches to the Default Branch , we'll show you the new petrifying stream in action!

Fixed several issues related to not loadable savegames,
