Hello,
Biomes update is out now!
With this update the game has changed a lot.
Most notable changes are;
- Biomes. For now there are 4 types of biomes; plains, mid lands, high lands and water. Biomes affect industry and agricultural field production.
- Resources. Added wood as another building material. And removed commercial food product type to make the game simple.
- Added new buildings and structures.
- Residential houses do not require 2x2 areas anymore. They became dynamic and will fit anywhere.
Experimental changes to make the game easier;
- Now commercial shops do not behave like bridge between people and food as early version was. This will make the game a lot easier than before.
- In earlier versions, people would only work at closer jobs. Now they will work from anywhere.
Thank you for your support and playing early access!
