Dev Update May 2024: Physics, Wonder Reactions, UI.

Fata Deum

Inspired by the god games of old, Fata Deum lets you mold settlements and townsfolk in your image. Will you raise the settlements to splendor, or spur them on to violent debauchery and demons? Watch as a living world grows under your whims.

[h1]Greetings, Divine Ones![/h1] Since April, we’ve been working hard and are proud to present our progress. Here is a quick summary: [list] [*] Physics [*] Wonder Reactions [*] Constitution Wonder [*] Exploration Spots [*] UI [*] Steam Next Fest [/list][h2]Physics[/h2] A big thing we added that you guys were waiting for is physics. With it, 2 new abilities made it into the game: grabbing and throwing mortals. Furthermore, the epic wonder Godly Fist allows you to really punish your mortals! With these skills, you can have fun playing with mortals or penalize them when they don't believe in you. With the grab, you can take a mortal and place him in another building to shift his work focus.

Show what you're made of and punch him across the map! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/b1a96f77f38b7733aefdd4d27adc2297c2b62597.gif[/img] Punching is too brutal for you, but you still want to eliminate the non-believing mortal? No problem, grab a mortal and throw him out of town. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/11abafaee9bede933528e40e7b5f4f20ebf9c3d1.gif[/img] Which one do you prefer? [hr][/hr] [h2]Wonder Reactions[/h2] In Fata Deum, every wonder you execute should feel unique, therefore, we added animations for each wonder you can execute. Whether you choose to Inspire or Oppress, the mortal reaction will always differ. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/10aadd96b1256a91d7be8561d18acb8cc02fd059.gif[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/6c253dcb5dc5a79b30b4946a4800dbc8e23c1d26.gif[/img] [hr][/hr][h2]Constitution Wonder[/h2] Two new wonders made it into the game. You feel like your mortals are too weak? Give them strength and let them build some muscles with “Increase Fitness”. If you don't like muscle, you may want to “Increase Comfiness” on your mortals. Now they will be able to empty your bar with ease.

Will you be able to find every one of them? [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/a1ed8d453918608bfeb441053d8f50c36da659c8.jpg[/img] [hr][/hr][h2]UI[/h2] Which mortal believes in which god? In the past, this was an issue we still wanted to solve. This is now gone with the new believer UI. Take a look: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/66eb9d870fdb0abd6e2668fc93b8e6fb2f3a2348.jpg[/img] Move the mouse pointer over a mortal or select the miracle "Spread love" from the quick menu, and you will see an outline in the color of the gods the mortal believes in. Furthermore, we worked on the selection UI. We rearranged the icons and simplified the overall look.

[img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/6646309f1f05af4cfd85c886a94f088745c227a4.jpg[/img] [hr][/hr][h2]Steam Next Fest[/h2] We are happy to share that we will participate in the Steam Next Fest from 10.06.2024 to 17.06.2024.
