The first post launch season of GDM, the "Launch Legends", will be ending on July 31st. At this time the top 10 players in each leader board will be recorded into the launch hall of fame to permanently show their dominance over the past 2 months. The leader boards will then be wiped, and reset for season 2 which will begin August 1st.
Old saves from the previous season will continue to work, but they will not post scores to the current leader boards. Only saves created after August 1st will be eligible to post scores in the new season.
At the same time as this season reset, we will be dropping the next big content patch. I don't want to go into too much detail regarding the patch yet as it is still a work in progress. However, I can confirm a few things already in place.
- A complete rework of the studio command bar. This includes un nesting certain menus players had issues finding or that get a lot of use.
- A new hardware system that is streamlined for the entire studio making it far less tedious and more realistically priced.
- A new worker menu with additional commands such as mass training of workers, or stopping all auto work with one button.
- A brand new hard mode featuring static difficulty settings and its own new leader board. This mode will put the best players to the test.
These plus many other aspects are already in the patch as well as additional content being worked on daily.
You have until the end of this month to claim your spot in GDM history by posting a top 10 score in one of the many leader boards. Don't worry though, there will be many more seasons and chances to dominate the leader boards as we continue to develop and expand the game.
Thank you to everyone for your support and feedback, this next patch will improve the game while also bringing a brand-new challenge to veteran players. I cannot wait for you pro players to get your hands on this new mode.
