🌙 Greetings, Settlers! We're excited to announce our series of Dev Diaries where we'll be taking you on a journey through the vast world of Night is Coming. In these diaries, we aim to provide you with an insider's view of the game's content and what you can look forward to. Today, we're pulling back the curtain to reveal the complete list of in-game biomes, their unique characteristics, the inhabitants that call them home, and the captivating stories that lie within. 🌲 🌟 Enjoy your journey through the world of Night is Coming! [h3][b]Greenwood[/b][/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34559962/e08b893b97160935fce756b5ba0a35a01d369002.png[/img] Welcome to a world where legends intertwine with reality. Here, beneath the protective canopy of ancient trees, you'll find abundant resources ready to serve as the foundation for your new settlement. This is a place where a student becomes a master, where sharp eyes and quick wits take precedence over experience, and each step deeper into the forest brings you closer to an encounter with the Baron of Hubris. Greenwood marks the beginning of your journey. Amidst rustling leaves and elusive shadows, you'll face your first trials. The difficulty level changes the face of the forest, luring you deeper into its mysterious heart. Here, Slavic mythology isn't confined to mere folklore; it springs to life, serving as your compass to navigate a forest that has witnessed numerous battles and the rise of new civilizations. Greenwood eagerly awaits those who are ready to accept its challenge. It is waiting for you. [h3][b]The Swamp[/b][/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34559962/0d5d8b755c4f11d06346b7c30add1e825d6aa3d3.png[/img] The swamp is an incredible, yet challenging place, filled with mystery and danger. Here, nature itself becomes your ultimate challenger. Abundant water and treacherous terrain will pose challenges for building placement, demanding a display of your ingenuity. For warriors and mages, prolonged exposure to the water will lead to debilitating debuffs that decrease their health, armor, and damage. Crafting a strategic plan for unit placement and carefully managing their time in these watery expanses is imperative. Only ephemeral mobs have the ability to traverse the waters effortlessly, leaving everyone else with no choice but to navigate the perilous swamp. This necessitates a fresh approach to dealing with adversaries, emphasizing long-range tactics. Developing a comprehensive strategy to confront diverse foes, including the formidable swamp monsters (details of which we will share in forthcoming posts), will be key to your success. Prepare to immerse yourself in the Swamp's challenges, but remember not to let it engulf you entirely. [h3][b]Pinewood[/b][/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34559962/3dff1ec65b450d22887f58157d3152536e3c494c.png[/img] Welcome to Pinewood. Here, players must adapt to an early, brutal winter and change their strategy to overcome the abundance of challenges that this cold land will provide. Pinewood is a home to Nightmares, incorporeal monsters that will regularly attack the settlement. Handling them will demand precious firewood or spirit, which won't come easy and will require careful resource management and strategic prioritization. The location's boss is the Baron of Wrath, whose strength and unrelenting fury pose a formidable and intimidating obstacle in your path. Facing him will be a true test of your mettle. Prepare yourself for the biting cold of winter in Pinewood! [h3][b]Dead Forest[/b][/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34559962/b85322efcbd51315c870d0fc0c395addaf862ef3.png[/img] Welcome to the eerie realm of the Dead Forest, where every rustle in the underbrush foretells an ominous future, and a sense of anxious anticipation clings to your thoughts, regardless of the hour. The forest's imposing silhouette, intricate terrain, and scarcity of resources will demand meticulous planning for every move, while the relentless battle for sustenance will rigorously test your survival instincts. The ruling entities in these darkened woods are none other than the formidable Baron of Lust and the enigmatic Knyaz Velimir himself. Resist the encroaching grip of the Dead Forest on your imagination. Your valor and resolve will ultimately shape your destiny in this uncharted territory. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1011590/Night_is_Coming/ [h3][b]About Night is Coming[/b][/h3] Night is Coming is a survival, building, and development simulation set in a fantasy world.
