March update is available on itch.io! Check out the changelog below:
New white patches: MAO, CHESTSPECK, PAINTED, WINGS, and BLACKSTAR.
Skin color now affects the inside of cats' ears.
New nylon collars - plus indigo and white variants of all color types.
You can now delete saved clans on the Switch Clan Screen.
New camp background: Grotto
New fading effect. Previously, cats became more transparent as they got closer to fading. This has been replaced with a three-stage "unraveling" effect.
Added many new kittypet and loner names.
Grief system has been expanded to give more unique death reactions based on the trait and mate status of the living cat.
"Bee sting", "headache", and "severe headache" are now potential injuries. "Persistent headaches" have been added as a permanent condition.
Lost cats can now return to the clan via moon events!
Lost cats can now die randomly, rather than just from old age.
New background for the Unknown Residence Screen.
Kittypets, loners, and rogues have a chance to appear in the "Cats outside the Clan" tab. These cats have a chance to join the clan during patrols.
Returning to the main menu or closing the game will now cause a pop-up window to appear, which will ask if you want to save your clan before proceeding.
Added a setting to control the display of gore in patrol art. Gore is turned off by default.
Added a handful of new mediator moon events.
If there are no warriors that have trained apprentices in the clan, a random warrior will be selected to be deputy. A special event text will be displayed for this situation.
New scar system for patrols on Classic Mode.
Previously, a bug was preventing patrol outcomes that rely on traits or skills. This bug has been fixed. This doubles the amount of accessible patrol outcomes!
Allow more variety in tortie base colors, including ginger-on-ginger torties.
Many new ceremonies, including special ceremonies for dead mentors and parents.
The code for moon events has been rewritten to allow for more flexibility and utility.
The limit on mediating has been reworked. Each mediator may mediate once per moon, rather than a global "one mediate per moon" limit. However, a single pair of cats can only be mediated between once per moon.
Murder events are now affected by relationship values.
Moon events regarding other clans now trigger based on your relation with the other clan.
A variety of game-chances have been moved game_config.json, in the resources folder. This will allow players to more easily edit chances, if they desire.
Star is no longer a possible prefix for clanborn cats.
When a kittypet that has a multi-word name joins the clan, there is a chance for them to pick only one word from their previous name to use as their prefix.
Cats who cannot work are no longer eligible mentors for new apprentices.
Male tortie chance has been significantly lowered - they now occur at a similar rate to shinies in pokemon games.
Mediate will now correctly affect trust, romantic like, and platonic like.
Mediators and mediator apprentices will no longer retire due to permanent conditions.
Clicking on a cat on the family page will now take you to that cat's family page, allowing for easier scanning through family lines. You can still access their profile by shift-clicking.
Reduced age at which cats fade to 202 moons.
Chance to develop "Lasting Grief" has been reduced.
