Greetings, Viceroys! The wait is finally over! Sturdy-as-stone Frogs join Against the Storm as the 6th playable species, while the new biome - Coastal Grove - opens its port to Viceroys searching for sunken treasures. We also released Fishing Update (1.4), free for everyone, which introduces a new fishing system, passive need bonuses, new buildings, increased level cap, and many many more changes.
So after immediately getting it and going through a few settlements, wow did this patch break my muscle memory hard.
I was panicked-looking for my Geyser Pumps and my Rain Collectors. (they’re under gathering now)
The new stuff seems all awesome. Fishing Huts are an interesting change of pace since you can haul in the nets early but that instantly depletes the node. Frogs are fascinating and a giant headache, being unable to be housed in non-specialized homes. The change on Foxes to no longer be rainwater-specialized makes the races feel more balanced. The new recipe combinations are weird as hell (again, all muscle memory gone) but seem balanced so far.

All very nice. Am impressed.
