Hello everyone! We've started to work on 0.6.0! To ease the wait, we thought about giving everyone who has already played the game and wants to start a new playthrough the option of a new and harder experience. That's why we're introducing the new "Hard Mode (Experimental)", which can be selected when starting a new game. Why experimental? This mode includes some tweaks to the game's economy. We haven't done a lot of testing with this mode and we don't know if we'll keep it (in this form). So please feel free to give us your feedback when you've played it! This patch also includes some other improvements and bug fixes. You can see the complete changelog here: Features:
