Patch 0.96 is out now!

Salvete, Lanistas!

Today, I have another update packed with exciting additions for you to enjoy! :)

Before we get to the patch notes, I want to clear up something important. With version 0.96 now out, you might understandably think the game is approaching a full 1.0 release.

Patch 0.95 is out now!

Salvēte dear Roman Citizens!

I know this update has taken a little longer than expected, but the new World View required me to rework quite a few of the game’s underlying systems. The positive side of this is that the way Gladiators, Lanistas and Doctores are handled is now much more modular, which also opens the door for potential future systems such as transfers between Ludi and much more.

Patch 0.94.3 is live!

Salvēte Esteemed Roman Citizens!

I had initially planned to wait and release a much bigger update, but some of the new features I’m currently working on are rather extensive and need a bit more time. So I figured I would instead release a smaller, but still significant, update with everything that is already ready for you all.

Important: KasperSky has in the meantime gotten back to me and confirmed they falsely flagged it from their end and it will be fixed
