Update 0.5 Preview - Feedback and Bug Reports


Philo

Recommended Posts

Finally the update is on the preview branch :)

Pretty much the WHOLE dev team was sick during the last weeks, so please excuse the delay! As usual this version is not quite finished and still rather buggy, that's why we uploaded it on a separate branch.

 

Please note: If you just want to play and enjoy the game DON'T play this version. This version is for bug testing and feedback. Your game will automatically update itself as soon as the update runs well and is pushed to the main branch.

 

What is new?

- Lots of new island + special challenge islands

- More content for swamp and savanna biomes

- New dynamic pattern system

- New gene unlocking/ mutation system

- Interspecies breeding with Bearyenas

- New textures

- Small adjustments and fixes

(Sickness lasts only 2 days, healing plants cures sickness, ...)

- Lots of new bugs xD

 

This update features a lot of new content and we had to rebuild the game quite a bit. Because of this older save files will unfortunately not be compatible with this update. We are really curious to hear if the game runs well on your computers now since we hope to have fixed some of the performance issues.

 

Known issues (currently fixing):

- Animals don't have textures currently (noses etc are missing)

- Animal patterns sometimes don't match with portrait and family tree image

 

The full release of the game in September is coming closer and closer!

This will be the last "update" before release. However we will keep pushing new builds to the preview branch every few weeks until launch.

All infos about Niche's future can be found here:

Hello, I have a question about the versions of Niche. I periodically collect various old versions of various games, I collect mostly pirated copies (due to the inability to get the original), and the oldest version of Niche I have is v0.3.0. Is this the oldest version or is it 0.5? Do you still have the first versions, can I download them somewhere?

P.S. And yes, I hope it will be translated correctly.

Yes, I know, I bought a niche on Steam for a very long time, but I wonder if it has old versions.

Ah, I see. The furthest back I can get through Steam is 0.1.5, but I'm not sure if that's the very first one.

Hmm ... yes, it's really sad, but honestly I need to try it, I just looked for copies, maybe through Steam I can find at least something else. But I found v0.0.7, only Torrent does not load .. yes, with Steam everything will be easier, thanks.
