This update brings a couple of quality of life improvements and small fixes for issues you folks reported. We’ll cover the most important here, you can find a full list of changes at the end of the post.
BETTER DISTINCTION BETWEEN UNITS
Over the time we got a lot of feedback on how difficult telling apart your units can be at times and we totally get that. We believe we finally found a good solution for this. Your units come in two shades now. One for ranged and one for melee units, since this is often the most important information you need to grasp in the heat of battle. You should now be able to tell at the first glance which is which. Additionally they display little icons showing their exact type over their heads while you command them. This makes it a lot more comfortable to sort your troops, no matter day or night.
UI TWEAKS FOR STEAM DECK
I (Paul) have to admit the Steam Deck is my favorite way to play Thronefall. It’s just such a great fit. Until recently though the small UI was hard to read. That got much better with the UI scaling option we’ve introduced in the last update, but some of the text was still quite small. We increased the text size in some areas of the game (perk descriptions, building choices, etc.) a bit, so that it should now be much more legible on the Deck and other small screens. This also should allow us to finally get that Steam Deck verified badge for Thronefall. :)
Thank you for all your extensive feedback and continued support. Developing Thronefall with you is so much fun!
Cheers,
Jonas & Paul
