Fata Deum | Patch 13 | Now Live On The Beta Branch!

[p][/p][p]Patch 13 is now available on the Beta Branch![/p][p]We’ve been hard at work expanding and polishing the experience while continuing our intensive development on the upcoming Hero Possession Mode - more on that in the next news post![/p][p]Along the way, we’ve introduced several exciting improvements and new features to make your time in the world even more engaging.[/p][p][/p][p]Two brand-new Drawing Wonders have arrived: Earthquake and Create Stones.[/p][h3]Earthquakes:[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]Unleash devastating tremors that send the ground shaking and demolish multiple buildings at once—let the mortals truly fear the power of the earth! [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Or take a more benevolent approach and conjure additional stones to provide your followers with the resources they need to thrive. [/p][p][/p][h3]Create Stones: [/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]Elemental Orbs have also received their own dedicated shortcut category, making them easier and faster to access during gameplay.[/p][p]We’ve also made major improvements to the day and night cycle. [/p][p]The differences between phases have been significantly reduced by removing mana reduction mechanics and making most manipulations available during the day as well. [/p][p]The remaining actions will be updated soon, meaning you’ll soon be able to perform any godly action whenever you want, without having to wait for the next phase.[/p][p]On top of that, we’ve been carefully listening to your feedback. [/p][p]This helped us identify a long list of smaller gameplay improvements that together make a big difference. [/p][p]From enhanced collection mechanics and refined AI behavior to improved visuals and numerous bug fixes, many areas of the game have been polished—and we’ll keep refining them.[/p][p]And of course, development doesn’t stop there. We’re continuing to work on the progression system to make your divine journey even more rewarding.[/p][p]Stay tuned—there’s much more to come.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h3]🛠️ Patch Notes v13[/h3]
