Version 0.2.9: Tutorial

Tutorial

Now that the broad mechanics of the game are in place, it's time to add the tutorial back into the game. Rather than having a set of tutorial missions which were always preset on your screen, you now start on a tutorial island.

This tutorial island is a small island that exists solely to guide you through the first steps of the game. It does this by providing a large amount of quests. Once you fulfill enough of them, you can leave the island.

Research Bonuses

Depending on your starting Goddess, you'll get certain research bonuses. This should differentiate the starting positions somewhat.

UI Unification

The building info and monstergirl info has now been merged into a single panel, making it easier to swap between buildings and workers.

Next

Next week will be a public release of this version, maybe with some bugfixes. For the non-public version I'm working on some extra equipment, some of which is unique to certain deities, as well as ways to transport goods and population between islands.
