First a reminder that the public release of Patch 3 is also releasing today, you can find it here. Next, as mentioned in last week's devlog, I started on adding all islands and remaining monstergirls. Inevitably, large parts are still placeholders. Some mechanics are still missing, and most monstergirls are lacking visuals.

Islands

There are 15 islands, consisting of 6 tiers. The old tech tree system will be reworked to be more Anno-like in the sense that you need a certain population of a certain tier to unlock stuff. Your monstergirls get to a better tier by fulfilling their needs, which differ between monstergirls and requires other monstergirls or resources that are found on specific islands. I'll cover the first three tiers here, and the last three in the next devlog.

Tier 1

In general you need to colonize the islands of a lower tier to unlock those of a higher tier, leading to a natural progression. The game starts easy, with production chains that require just one building or monstergirl, and then gets more complicated at higher tiers.

Rotummer

Layout: The tutorial island, it's meant to be small and sparsely populated and allow you to leave it as soon as possible. 

Monstergirls: The island contains Cowgirls (Milk), Ramgirls (Wool), and Ratkin (Leather). Cowgirls are new, and their visuals (and larger boobs) are already in the game:

Goods: The island gives access to fish to feed your Humans and Ratkin, and which only requires a harvester near the coast. Once you conquer the dungeon on the lower part of the island, you get access to Cowgirls which give you Milk to fulfill the Drink Needs of T1 Humans and Ratkin. There is some Wood, Stone, and a tiny amount of Iron on the island as well, for early construction and crafting. The Ramgirls give wool which is also necessary for your Humans/Ratkin to upgrade to Tier 2.

For the Rams and Cows, the island has Carrots fertility (you can no longer plant every crop on every island) for their Food Needs, but not enough space to sustain a large population. Note that the Needs system isn't working yet.

Tier 2

I won't go into as much detail for the other islands. The current content is more of a rough framework after all, it can still change in the future.

Borkum

Layout: The island has enough space to build a proper city and some farms, though Stone and Iron are still limited. It has no carrot fertility, so will require trading with Rotummer or excessive use of Alraune.

Monstergirls and Goods: I'm not going to mention already encountered monstergirls. This island has Bunnies (extra range on Taverns with the Waitress class), Alraune (a small trickle of all crops), and Bats (Crystals for training). The island also has grain fertility, used for Bread, a T2 good for your Humans/Ratkin.

Tier 3

At tier 3, the game opens up further and you can select out of multiple islands to settle next.

Ameland

Layout: A long island, filled with rivers and dungeons, forcing you to fight to the juicy iron deposits at the end.

Monstergirls and Goods: Centaurs (improve Stables), Harpies (improve overseers), and Wolves (fur). Note that I haven't actually done the visuals of the new races yet (except the cowgirl), so the centaurs don't actually look the part. Has Carrot and Grain fertility.

Texel

Layout: A large island perfect for building a large colony, though you'll need to ship in Stone and Iron.

Monstergirls and Goods: Elves (Improved Watchtowers and Fortresses), Foxes (Foxfur), and Harpies as well. Has Grain and Apple fertility.

Biesbosch

Layout: Large mountain ranges with minimal building space. Perfect for a small mining colony.

Monstergirls and Goods: Arachnids (silk), Orcs (improved metallurgy), and Dryads (other crops than Alraunes), some aphrodisiac pools, as well as the first gold deposits. Note the the production of buildings depends on the distance to the closest port since 0.3.4, so the deposits won't be very productive. Has Grapes and Apple fertility.

Next Week

I'll continue adding visuals for as many monstergirls as possible, no idea how far I'll get. The Elf at least is done already:
