Version 0.35.0: reputation, a living colony and a new look
Published Major release
Choose a side between the Great Ant and Satant, watch your colony change with the light, and vote in a new feature poll every fortnight.
Version 0.35.0 makes the scale between the Great Ant and Satant matter. Lean toward the Great Ant for a little more Food and births, or toward Satant for a little more Materials and soldiers' damage. Each side has five milestones with small rewards and a scene where the two of them bicker, and once you've filled a side you can fill it again each day for its chest. Neither side is the right one, and the new Reputation journal keeps every scene to read again.
Your colony looks more alive too. It has its own light now, from a soft dawn to cool moonlit nights, buildings and decorations sit on the ground with soft shadows, and ants walk around buildings instead of through them. Famous ants have their own walk, idle and special animations, and every event camp has its own picture.
Build and Research now look like the rest of the game, with tabs for each age. Feature polls open by themselves every two weeks, each timed so your vote can shape an update before we build it, and the wiki and this news site now wear the game's field journal look.
The full lists are in the patch notes. Thanks for playing, and tell us what you think on Discord or with Send feedback in the game.
