Version 1.11.0 M7 Released
Posted August 04, 2026 by devgb
M7 expands the completely local simulated social world, differentiates the procedural score across ten gameplay contexts and synchronizes Story, News, Tutorial, Achievements and documentation with the current build.
No real person receives Chat messages. No network service, account or server was added.
Living World and Chat
- 16 persistent named local personalities
- roles, moods, current activities and familiarity
- Global, Trade, Raid, Guild, Arena and read-only System channels
- threaded replies and message mentions
- Agree, Cheer and Warning reactions
- topic filter and message search
- multi-message Farm, Beastbound, Deepfolk and patch conversations
- bounded persistent thread, reaction and relationship state
- current-system contextual replies instead of obsolete patch text
Music and sound
Ten procedural music profiles now distinguish:
- Home
- exploration
- settlements
- Farm
- Deepfolk
- Menagerie
- News
- Chat
- Arena
- battle
Additional sound cues cover Chat, reactions, Achievements, Farm collection, hatching, crafting and News interactions. Music and sound settings remain separate, and gameplay outcomes are unchanged.
Current-reference synchronization
- Story Chronicle expanded to 43 entries
- News archive expanded to 11 bundled entries
- Tutorial remains complete across all 30 primary routes
- Achievement catalog expanded and audited at 237 definitions
- Premium Player's Guide corrected and regenerated
- English and German Quick Starts updated
Fixed
- Chat topic/search controls stretching across the message area
- obsolete active Chat patch and field-report references
- stale M5 focus text in the itch.io README
- Player's Guide incorrectly stating 29 rather than 30 routes
- page 4 and page 13 Player's Guide layout overlaps
- procedural drum-condition precedence
- dynamic
CSS.escape compatibility dependencies
- non-portable historical Beastbound QA test paths
Balance
No broad resource or economy rebalance was necessary. Farm, Arena, Apex, Deepfolk and Reclamation profiles remained within their validated targets. Chat, reactions, News, Story and audio do not grant hidden resources.
