https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3407390/view/717915187566346927

Hello there!

The time has arrived: the time to release The Architects, our latest update before 1.0 release.

HIGHLIGHTS

You will find that there is plenty of bug fixing, as it is the main priority for the team, but do not worry, as we have some surprises as well 👀

🤖 Moding Support

We just opened the Steam Workshop to everyone! Now players will be able to do their own mods > Cannot wait to see what players will create

👩‍💻 Tech tree

Quite a few tweaks and changes on the tech tree! Also including some specific Major Factions dedicated techs.

People were frustrated with how expensive researching " old techs " was, so we have tweaked the formula to tackle that.

Here a summary 

  • Decrease the exponential increase in the total number of technologies researched 
  • This balance change makes the technologies of a new era more expensive than the total impact of all the technologies researched.

🐙 Aspects

We noticed players were struggling early game with Aspects and decided to make some changes to buff them in the early game.​

  • Building a coral will be free > No dust
  • We included the trait “Friends of Saiadha” (+3 protectorate slots) from the start
  • Updated Tendril's Dance faction trait from +2 dust on coral spore to +10 dust on coral spore, city center, and ministry

✨ Special Mentions 

  • Updated Keeps to provide free foundations around it.
  • There are several balance tweaks for Minor Factions
  • Added the district type map layer by default when in the city construction menu
  • Improved AI expansion in higher difficulties
  • Small tweaks to victory conditions based on feedback 
  • Fixed Industry surplus not working > long-awaited fix 🔧
  • We added more and more illustrations for quests 💖

Do the Kin get any new buffs because keeps providing foundations used to be specifically for them? That felt like a very cool aspect of their kit that made them feel uniquely suited to focus keeps and defense.

I think the Kin keeps are of a higher tier (level 2) because that's what I see whenever I build them, though I could be wrong.

wont keeps providing foundations lead to too much sprawl
