I advice you to read through this but if you're short on time or just not interested, here are the changes:
-This update possibly removes a lot of lag (I can't guarantee 100%)
-Less items needed to proceed
-Trees grow WAY faster
-In short, most of the grinding has been removed
-There is a button on the title screen that can turn off the perspective that you have at night
-Extra content in the Extras menu!
So I recently woke up from the coma caused by the Tyke and Sons aftermath. Before that, I've seen that a lot of you have enjoyed the game despite the lag, but everybody could agree that the grind was horrible. But for some reason I didn't want to get rid of the thing that made the game as long as it was. I thought that this was important or else it wouldn't work as a Tycoon game.
However, it didn't let go of me that the game had a very objective flaw. I just couldn't be bothered to touch the code one more time. It wouldn't take much work to fix the game, but if you eat spaghetti for a few months straight, you'll get to that point where you just can't have another bite, or else you will vomit hard.
For some random reason, I got just enough motivation recently to look at it a final time. And not only could I nerf the grinding aspect, I also had a theory on what to fix so I can stop most of the lag. I finally found someone whose game was running on 2fps, and after I did what I did, it was running smoothly. So here's hoping that the lag problem is fixed now (sorry to those who still got a low framerate).
Now, most of you have already seen or played the entire game, but I bet that there are at least 10 people here that would like to redownload a better version, so I'm doing this for those 10 people, and every newcomer as well. And also for me because I want to enjoy my own games.
Alright, stay home, my final message, bye.
