Devblog #51: Onward to Multicellular
It’s finally time for the first major update of the Multicellular Stage development process! We have a new cell specialisation feature allowing you to really take advantage of the multiple cell types you can make for your Multicellular species. Additionally, you can now control the growth order of cells, giving you far greater control over the course of life as a Multicellular organism. There are also several smaller additions and improvements to the stage, making it overall more fun to play and building a foundation for future development.
Though our work is focused on the multicellular Stage, we also have some more general changes, such as a new environmental tolerances UI, updates to water currents and bigger pieces of ice in the ice sheet patch. That’s not mentioning the many bug fixes, balance changes and and performance improvements.
This is just the first step of Multicellular Stage development, and a lot of time near the start of the year was spent on maintenance and the fixing of issues from the 1.0 release. Which is to say, we can hopefully show you even more progress in the next update!
