Changelog 2024-04-10 - Better tutorial


Dear players!

We are happy to release a new version of Dawnmaker’s demo today. Based on the feedback with received from playtests, we’ve improved the overall experience of the tutorial, with the intent of making it both easier to understand and follow, and to make it a more satisfying and rewarding moment.

Here’s the breakdown of all the changes since the last release (2024-03-21):

Quality of life

  • Added a feedback when you gain a new building.
  • Improved the controls to play cards to allow both drag&dropping and just plain clicking a card.
  • Added the number of remaining lighthouses to repair in the Eclairium tooltip.
  • Added the number of remaining turns before running out in the Luminoil tooltip.

Tutorial

  • Moved the tutorial goals into a more visible box, added a bunch of small effects on them.
  • Added a tooltip to explain the Smog.
  • Added many tooltips all around the tutorial to explain the less intuitive things.

Cosmetic

  • Refactored the end game screens into a single screen.
  • Added fireworks around the city when you win a game.
  • Added a button to watch your city after you’ve won.
  • Added a custom cursor.

As usual, we are hungry for your feedback, on those changes or on the game in general!
