We also want to share an update to the mechanics of some artifacts in our game. [b]We have changed the growth type of their effects to logarithmic.[/b] What does this mean for you? [list] [*] [b]Early in the game, you won't notice any changes:[/b] the effects of artifacts will remain the same as before. [*] [b]With logarithmic growth, each new stack of an artifact will bring benefits, but the incremental effect will slightly decrease.[/b] This adds an extra challenge and makes the late stages of the game more exciting. [/list] This decision was made based on a vote in our [url=https://discord.gg/Hkrp6AUa5S]Discord community[/url], where we would be happy to see you as well.
