Preparing for my next project...

Hey guys, I've been structuring the summary of my next game idea in a nice text form for a while now, and I believe I will soon be ready to share it with you. It's not really a design bible, but rather a short and to the point description that should be enough to spark a feedback discussion.


I will create some speci...

Time to talk about my next project!

Zan the Bonebreaker post Time to talk about my next project! from patreon

As some of you might have already seen on Discord, I am planning to start working on a new game as soon as I'm done filling in Hedon's Wiki documentation.

I will obviously come back with more details but I figured I'd start dropping some breadcrumbs until I organize the design info in an accessible way.

2.1.1 Hotfix

Zan the Bonebreaker post 2.1.1 Hotfix from patreon

I tried to push the 2.1.0 update before Civvie's vid went live to avoid a large number of newcomers being hit by the usual save breaking update, but naturally, some of the features I have added led to new bugs I did not notice in time. I figured I'd toss in an extra few features with the 2.1.1 update, you can see the changelo...

Zan the Bonebreaker post 2.1.0 update is out on Wednesday GMT! Back your game up! from patreon

Not unexpectedly, it's been a really crazy month, handling all the aspects of a post-release! I believe the current version fixes all the bugs and issues brought up so far, so I set it to release before Wednesday, 09:00 GMT. Keep that in mind before a potential auto-update breaks your current saves - you might wanna back your...

Sorry for the absence. As some of you know from Discord, I have accidentally spilled soup right onto my laptop's keyboard (the universe's way of rewarding me for working on the release trailer during the lunch break). Of course it had to happen right before release... this led to a grueling couple of weeks in which I had to b...
