1.01.00 - Major Update: Golden Goals + Visuals


Ahoy! Welcome to 1.01.00.

First up, a new trailer and devlog. Patch notes below.

The game has come a long way since launch, and the changes today are significant enough to mark this as the first major numbered updated. That's right, we're going up a decimal point!

Changes:

  • Added the Golden Goal system and associated quests. This is a major addition to how you can approach the shop. Becoming available very early, Golden Goals offer rewards that can scale infinitely , though they will start small and have to be grown through use. When you complete a goal you will be offered a limited choice of rewards. Some give immediate benefits, such as gaining coin and XP. But others are permanent multipliers that make the other rewards greater. I'm sure you'll find interesting ways to put this system to use.
  • Added a townhouse interior in The Capital.
  • Replaced the sound the Fake Prince makes when entering the store (no more sad trumpet).
  • Changed the graphic for Wax and Fire in Minto's Hoard.
  • Added a new lategame customer, Patron. When this customer enters the store a name is displayed above their head. The name changes to the next one in a list each time they enter. Supporters on Patreon can opt to have a name of their choice added to this list , the game will even recognise if it matches your Steam name. (This will not offer any gameplay benefits, it is simply a thank you from me to the supporters).
  • Commodities now initialise at 10 stock instead of 0.
  • Added a notification when you walk into the shop if you've found a new cosmetic while out and about.
