- Next updates and Main version - 1 November 2024
Hello to you fair rulers ! A little news for you. From now on, I hope to give more news and make you more participate for the new updates. I already used a bit the betas of Steam to let you test the patches. But I didn't always tell you what was in the betas and when I posted them. The idea is that while I'm working on the next big update (currently version 0.63), I should beta the current build, if possible at least once a month. This will avoid a lack of news for months like what happened between the release and the last big update. If you see at the beginning, it will be for the beta. If it's , it's the official release of the update. This beta will also be the last patch before the next major update. It will be available for testing until next weekend. Don't hesitate to test it so that I know if there are any bugs that still need to be fixed. As a reminder, to use Betas on Steam, ri…
