Balancing the new terra tokens sytem

Hello Terraformers!

A new patch that address the terra tokens system and fixes a lot of bugs is out!

It's been two weeks since the new Space Trading udpate is out, and once again, the reception has been amazing. So many of you dive back in the game and Brice & I went trough all of your creations, screenshots, videos, reviews and, of course, feedbacks.

Balancing the terra tokens system

We saw a lot of feedbacks addressing the "grind" of the space trading system. It was meant to give a challenge to players that were already in the end game, but indeed, could be perceived as too much grind for more casuals players.

We decided to balance the terra tokens system by increasing the price of tradable items and slightly lowering the amount of tokens you can loot from meteor events. Reducing the RNG and giving you more control over how you acquire tokens.

We acknowledge that players who gained tokens with the old values can feel a bit frustrated, but we believe that this will be more fun for everyone and better suited for updates to come.

Furthermore, We added two new items to buy : a new squared 3x3 habitat (by popular demand) and a new tree seed.

Fixing bugs

For big updates, we like to give you as much content as we can. But sometimes, focusing too much on content can prevent us from fixing bugs. So we fixed a lot of little bugs and inconveniences that our amazing community patiently asked us to adress.

One big request that we added was the ability to dismantle doors and windows without deconstructing the whole habitat. We added a new brightness slider in the option menu. We improved drones to avoid them stopping or going all at once in the same storage. We improved some UI and made improved performances of auto crafters.

We hope this will improve your experience with the game!

Thanks once again to everyone supporting us, giving feedback, reviewing the game, and sending us good vibes!

Happy terraforming!
