[img]https://i.imgur.com/HMS9AiF.png[/img] [h1]Rodina 1.4.1 is released![/h1] This is a minor update with only one change - new Xeno art, by yours truly! Some of you may know that I'm now doing all of the art for the game, which I'm really enjoying. Art isn't my expertise, but by doing it myself it's a lot easier to get something closer to my vision. With that in mind, I've been meaning to redo the Xenos in a different style for a while now, and this was a good time to do it! The update was delayed a bit due to a long exhausting sickness (I'm fine now!), but I hope you like the final product! [img]https://i.imgur.com/Pmtg0eP.png[/img] [h1]Also: Community Vote Results![/h1] Thanks to all for participating in this exciting vote! This time, both the binding Bossypants voters and the rest of the community agreed: [b]Planetary Upgrade[/b] is the next priority! Here are the totals: [list] [*] [b]RPG Features[/b]: 38 binding votes / 31 community votes [*] [b]The Garden[/b]: 12 binding votes / 33 community votes [*] [b]Planetary Upgrade[/b]: 62 binding votes / 89 community votes [/list] Starting immediately, I will begin improving the planet renderer and generation! Hope to have something to show you soon. [h1]Bug News[/h1] Finally: many of you have been complaining about [b]black squares[/b] covering entrances, or holoscreens being all black. This problem has been frustrating us all for like 6 months. It's embarassing and I apologize to those affected. The good news: I've finally reproduced it on my machine. This is the major first step towards getting it fixed, so hopefully I can make progress quickly now. Thank you all for your help over the past few months tracking this obnoxious bug down! Thank you all so much for your support! I'm glad you all picked Planetary Upgrades - I haven't worked on the planets in a long time and I think I can really make the game look a lot better! Talk to you again soon! -Brendan
