We have decided to release an update that fixes and improves the current game-play and interface.
We have also implemented a new task system which is an important step towards the gameplay we want for the final game.
A new system for visual variations has also been created and we have included some subtle examples in some of the current buildings (more to come).
We have also added a new storage building and many other small fixes and improvements.
Please post your feedback and suggestions on the Steam forums.
Happy Halloween for every one!
