[p]Hey everyone 👑[/p][p][/p][p]As promised, here is the first major update in time for the holidays![/p][p][/p][h3]New content[/h3][p]The elves do now also have a building:
The Observatory! [/p][p]It makes all the buildings with a progress bar faster. Having a different way to do so should increase some builds viability and allow more strategies. Especially making mineshafts faster will be very interesting.[/p][p][/p][p]Then we have a new type of items with
targeting items. With them, you can adjust which monsters your units target. This is probably one of the
most requested features, and I am very happy to have found a solution so fast that is still rather tactical. In many tower defense games you can switch the targeting at any time, but it would've been very annoying to switch targeting on multiple units whenever certain enemies appear. Like this, whom to adjust is a build crafting decision and you need to use an item slot for it. Be aware, this is not tested for balance yet. Some
crazy combinations will be possible now. Have fun :)[/p][p][/p][h3]Progression[/h3][p]Playing the undead kingdom
is optional now, so you can play them in any order you like. To still have access to all the variety, you unlock the other half of the units by leveling your kingdom instead. That also means that the progression is more stable and faster now.[/p][p][/p][p]I have seen feedback about liking the way it was, and to be honest, it was a hard decision for me as well. The idea was a
metroidvania-like feeling, where you switch between the kingdoms to find new units and then have more options in the other one. And when a player accepts that and goes with the flow it worked out really well. But the reality is that there are
multiple valid reasons to feel different about that. Some just do not like a certain kingdom, others don't want to learn two concepts at the same time, and then there was the general problem of feeling forced. [/p][p][/p][p]We do have very
different types of players and I need to find a good solution for all of us. So, for me this is an experiment. First we had the very guided experience, now we try a more individual and faster progression. I will watch out for old and new players' feedback, to use that in a
bigger evaluation on where to take this project. If you have some time over the holidays, please try how it feels now on another profile and share what you think about it.[/p][p][/p][h3]Clarity[/h3][p]A big portion of this update is also clarity again.
All achievements do have a hint and a spoiler now, which also act as an extended tutorial that does not get in the way for players that don't need it. I hope this will make new players experience with the game a lot smoother.[/p][p]How units display their stats has also been improved. They can also only equip items for those stats, preventing you from wasting items. [/p][p][/p][h3]Food System[/h3][p]In the old system, the randomness when raw meat or fish was eaten was a problem for many players. The fish filet relic was also too strong, and souls were very easy to upgrade in the undead kingdom. Now they never pick the meat first anymore, but instead the amount of meat (or souls) that can be upgraded each night is limited instead, and you can upgrade the tavern to increase that limit. That should help with all of these problems and also explain the whole system better.[/p][p][/p][h3]Steam Reviews[/h3][p]Please
make sure to leave a Steam review, sharing your thoughts and feedback about Super Fantasy Kingdom. They're a powerful way to let me know what you think and help out quite a bit! I'll continue to look through them as more patches come out.[/p][p][/p][p]Wishing you all great holidays!![/p][p]Feryaz[/p][p][/p][p]
