Balance Updates to Forge Action Patch Notes (0.45.584)
Hey, Oracles!
We’ve been hard at work preparing for the launch of Astrea next week on September 21st! Before launching the game we wanted to give the demo one final patch before launch to improve player experience. These changes will be part of the full game!
Patch Notes
General
Demo save will be wiped on this patch!
Minor UI Improvements
Changed mouse/controller detection on main menu and intro cutscene to be dynamic, which means that player doesn't need to go to settings to change it anymore
Better support for steam deck (now it automatically comes with a controller layout)
Added Korean and Traditional Chinese languages
Now the game asks if you allow the game to collect your gameplay data for balancing purposes on the first time you play.
Minor bug fixes
Settings Changes
Accessibility tab changed to Miscellaneous tab
Credits moved from Main Menu to Misc tab
Delete save moved from Gameplay tab to Misc tab
Added the option to stop data collection (analytics data)
Now player can go back to the shop after leaving the shop
The game now runs in the background if you click outside of the game.
Now prices on shop are tinted in red when player don't have enough star shards.
Balancing
Tutorial Improvements
New actions added to the game: Unforgeable actions, those actions work like other actions, but they can't be forged.
Now Duplicating a die on forge will increase the cost by 50.
Balanced Forge Actions. Some actions got higher price, but we still have 3 price tiers 100, 150, 200. Also added more actions. And now it will always appear 3 x 200 cost actions, 1 x 150 and 1 x 100.
Inventive reworked, now it deals 3 Purification X times, where X is the amount of die discarded.
Ten days until the launch of Astrea! If you love the demo, be sure to wishlist Astrea!
