small bugfix update

Hot on the heels of the previous update, here are two more bugfixes:

  • Fixed: Market UI still listed weapons as tradeable
  • Fixed: Camera Shake

Bugfix and Quality-of-Life Update

ATTENTION - this is part 2 of the major walls update, this one is destructive. Old saves (by now 3 months or more old) may not work or not correctly restore any walls built.

This update also fixes a number of bugs, adds French translation and more. Here's the full changelog:

  • Removed old wall section prefabs
  • French translation (partial, dialog texts still missing)
  • Wayposts now create paths to connect to the nearest existing path
  • Improved the interaction between game speed and monsters during the night (less chance for you to miss monster attacks due to high game speed)
  • Increased the hitbox size of small monsters (rats, kobolds, goblins) in order to reduce the "monster phasing through walls" issue.
  • Fixed: Work summary now scrolls when there are too many projects for the view size
  • Fixed: Walls should now again be enabled correctly in the tutorial mission
  • Fixed: Text bug (smelter/smithy mixed) in the Krobory Story mission
  • Fixed: Steward sent back to school to learn counting (damaged/destroyed numbers should now be correct)
  • Fixed: Kroburg story no longer launches the intro dialog and quest when you load a save game
  • Updated Unity engine and packages used

Summertime is here !

If you've been holding off, now is the perfect time to get the game into your collection. Black Forest will be on sale during the Steam Summer Sale.

It's also a great time because the game just received a major update, and another (smaller) update is on the way.

Go and defend these villagers, they'll be eaten without you !

Attention: Next Update is a Breaking Change

I'm working on part 2 of the major update. This will have far fewer changes, but the important part is that I will be cleaning up old, no longer used things.

So if you have any quite old saves (from before the last update), now is the time to finish those game.

In the next update, I will be removing old walls and no longer used buildings. This might break old saves, meaning that those buildings won't exist anymore if you load a game where they were still present.

In other news, the update will also include French localization. I know it's been asked a few times, it's finally coming.

Sale + Update

Black Forest is on sale.

Steam tells me that over 10,000 of you still have it on your wishlist. Now, with the sale and the big update that just came out, is the perfect time to get Black Forest into your library.
