Update 2.1.0 - Lost Legends DLC Released!

[p][/p][h2]Faerie Solitaire Remastered - Lost Legends DLC Released![/h2][p]
[/p][p]This DLC expands the base game of Faerie Solitaire Remastered and follows the story of Autumn and her travels through the lands of Avalon! [/p][p]This new adventure includes 40 new locations, over 360 new hands, dozens of new card types, new pets to find, new powers to unlock and secrets to be found![/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][h2]Use of AI[/h2][p]Currently Subsoap does not have an artist and I am working on Subsoap projects on my own. So to finish this project I decided to use AI to help finish this DLC and most likely will be used for future projects unless an artist is found.[/p][p] [/p][p]I'm a believer that if you use AI for your product then it should reduce the cost of the product for the user. Our originally planned price was going to match the base game as they're both the same size, however since I decided to use AI the price was reduced from $14.99 to $8.99.[/p][p][/p][p]If we find an artist to replace the AI art in the future the price will reflect that and go back up to the planned $14.99.[/p][p][/p][p]The majority of new backgrounds, pet art and various graphics use generative AI. If you are an artist and want to replace them with higher quality hand painted organic backgrounds? Contact us![/p][p][/p][p][email protected][/p][p]

[p]Originally this DLC was much, much smaller. It was going to be more like a mappack expansion of 5-15 new locations for challenge mode. This was planned that way because I was waiting on my brother to recover from his health issues, as I got close to completely the last location at the time he was still very ill and unable to work on the game with me. So I decided to make it a bit bigger and over time I ended up making it a full length game.[/p][p][/p][p]In hindsight this should've been its own game but it's a bit late for that now![/p][p][/p][p]Ultimately my brother stepped away from working on Subsoap so I've been working on this alone with all our other products for the last 4 or so years.[/p][p][/p][p]This is the first product I've worked on from start to finish solo doing the programming, art (w/ AI art assistance) and writing. Hopefully the story is interesting enough but will probably be rough around the edges. [/p][p][/p][h3]Feedback is welcome![/h3][h2]

[p]There's a bunch of under the hood changes along with changes I've made to the game pre 2.1.0 that were made originally for this update.[/p][p][/p][h3]Larger File Size[/h3][p]The game file size is jumping from about 500mb to 1.6gb, this is due to me being unhappy with how the backgrounds looked with the texture compression systems we have. They had artifacts and were overall just unpleasant to look at.[/p][p][/p][p]I intend to take a look at how to properly address that to get the file size back down, but the game's overall file size will probably sit around 1gb still even with texture compression enabled.[/p][p][/p][h2]Translations[/h2][p][/p][p]We've updated all the text for these languages: [/p]
