Hello - Claudia here ♥ This update took a bit longer than for my usual pace. After the launch i really needed a break and decided to take some time off from game dev. But now i'm back - refreshed and motivated to continue working on Ova Magica! I also take this occasion to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all players who leave in the Steam Forum or in our [url=https://discord.gg/jqfRH2ems3]Discord[/url] feedback and report bugs ♥ It helps immensly improving the game. Even when the team can't reply to all feedback: We read it 100% and also have several things planned for the next updates. So please continue posting when you notice things.

The main dev focus is now to work further on feedback but also mainly to focus heavily on the next big roadmap content update (0.7). [b]Make sure to update the game to 0.634 version.[/b] (If Steam doesn't do the update automatic close and restart Steam. On Steam Deck sometimes the Deck doesn't start games after updates, in this case restart the Steam Deck.) [b]QUALITY OF LIFE + IMPROVEMENTS[/b] [b]Various[/b] [list] [*] increased sprinkler feeder size from 1 to 4 [*] increased compost bin size from 4 to 16[/list] [b]New Blueprint: Thermostat[/b] Flint sells now also a Thermostat blueprint. Placed in a blob barn it keeps the temperature constant on a specific season which results the barn not changing temperature when the season changes. (Note: Heaters and Air Condition still needs to be placed to make the barn general cooler or warmer - the Thermostat just prevents the change for seasons).

[previewyoutube=4dq21fxH0y0;full][/previewyoutube] [b]Vendors: Buy Many/Buy Stack[/b] There is now for most items an option in the vendor Ui to buy many. [previewyoutube=QS5y1LBCqWk;full][/previewyoutube] [b]BUG FIXES[/b] [list] [*] fixed that plant fields being in a sprinklers range which had no food were not considered as watered even when raining or being watered with the watering can [*] fixed blob energy was set to 99 when a blob with a higher energy used a blob ability [*] fixed bgm and disabled weather sounds not behaving correct when being in blob games [*] fixed duration of the light bait ability area (angler blob) was also reduced when being in battle [*] fixed galaxy ring of some blobs in the overview of the photographed residents were not visible [*] fixed Charoi had no dialog when comissioning the museum [*] fixed bridge on farm being not symmetrical regarding workbench mode grid [*] fixed several typos [/list] Thank you for reading so far!
