[i]And we were sick half the time, so that was fun[/i]. On top of [b]new quests[/b], [b]biomes[/b], [b]resources[/b], and [b]workstations[/b], it also has some much requested features: First of which is the [b]Customer Ledger[/b]. Finally there is an in-game way to see what each customer wants to buy, as well as an overview of their level, wants, and personalities. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43157888/091f4fb9b30a2c76add05fa2b1c450165538f5f0.png[/img] Another much requested feature that we have added, is the [b]ability to colorize chests to better organize your workshops[/b]. You will have some chest colors available from the beginning, with others being unlocked as you play. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43157888/a1eb31b4b047554ca08951cb25032fbb89f6018d.png[/img] We have also made a bunch of minor and major changes. A small one that requires some explanation, is that [b]we renamed Potency Rating to Power Rating[/b]. We kept seeing that some of you were missing the distinction between potency and potency rating. We believe it is because the terms were so similar, so we wanted to make them more distinct. Potency is what an ingredient has. Power Rating is what a mixture has, based on the combined potency of its ingredients. For a long time, we have felt that the mid game pacing was off. We came to the conclusion that the way our bottles are made slowed down this part of the game, and actively made it difficult to scale production in a meaningful way. Simply put, you guys had too many ingredients to bottle it all! To solve this, [b]we are introducing flasks[/b]. Flasks are cheaper bottles that are easier to produce on a large scale, since they are made from fiber, which incidentally can be made by crushing ingredients. However, flasks have a downside: they can only hold the weakest of mixtures. Our hope is that this leads to a more interesting progression, where you can start brewing a lot more potions early on, while also opening up for a “b-tier” production line in the late game, reserving quality bottles for only your best brews.
