Today we want to take a look on what we have achieved in past few months and express our gratitude for your unending trust and support

This spring we had a big flow of Captains setting sail for the first time. As the game continues to develop, our community grows bigger and bigger with every day. We welcome all new players and want to appreciate you for your interest in our game.

Recently we also had several major updates, that were targeted to solve the economic issues that we all saw.

Firstly, we have made a significant progress in reducing WOD-token inflation. We have managed to increase the net income of all Captains by moving crafting and repair tools to Off-Chain and optimizing the gas fees for teleporting items. With this foundation, we had a way to rebalance the fishing sessions and not affect your cashflow with it.

This led to a significant decrease in token inflation without disrupting the economy and cutting your profits.

We want to say a big "Thank You" to our community for your feedback, unrelenting trust in our team and support of our decisions. From our side, we promise that the game will keep up the pace and grow bigger and more exciting.

Take a little break to enjoy the journey, Captains, but don't let your guard down. More exciting news will follow soon.

Tower Defish continues to develop and the open beta is closer than you think. Today we will tell you more about the new competitive game mode that you will be able to play quite soon.

#TDdevblog 13

Tower Defish is going to have more than 200 levels in different areas of the map. But for those, who will complete all of them, and those who wants to fight for the title of the world's best fish hunter we have something very special.

Survival Mode is an alternative game mode, not limited by time or fish waves. The player will defend the river against endless waves of fish, with each new wave getting stronger than the last.

You will receive rewards based on how many waves you withstand and your results will appear on the global leaderboard.

The top-ranking players in the leaderboard will not only win glory and renown for themselves, but also will be rewarded for their outstanding performance.

Get ready to climb the leaderboard and keep your eyes open for news, Captains, for Tower Defish's open beta is coming soon.

The waves are calming down and the waters grow still. Now is the perfect time for looking back on our journey and planning our route ahead.

While the major economic and gameplay updates need some time to settle down, we turn our attention to the technical side of the game.

In a very short perspective, we will release updated guides for the new players, more relevant to the current version of the game.

You should also expect some changes in UI. We are making a major reimagination of the in-game notifications and are focusing on making them more helpful and informative.

Enjoy the quiet still, Captains, but keep your eyes open, for the new waves are gathering in the seas.

More updates are coming to make the game economy grow and prosper!

Today we had a hard decision to make, but it's the one the economy desperately needs. The Fishing Sessions will be rebalanced through these changes:
- WOD coefficient for all zones decreased by 15%.
- Repair Tools cost increased 2x.

We had an alternative plan which included changing the session duration, but we turned away from it as many players adapted their schedules for the game and we don't want to bring more inconvenience.

The last several updates and Off-Chain transfers were targeted on increasing your net profit: spending much less on gas fees and having your items worth more. All of it was done to make this update more effective in countering inflation, while not altering your profits in the end.

We know that such changes can upset many loyal players, but if these changes won't be implemented, the inflation will decrease your profits in a much more significant way.

We thank you for your understanding and for helping the game economy grow and develop and we're looking forward to hear your thoughts on these changes in the community chat.

P.S. The Equipment Upgrade Update, changes to the material economy and tools price change coming to Mainnet on Monday. Change of WOD production will take effect right after tournament end

The waves continue to grow bigger, so keep an eye out and follow the news, Captains. There will be more updates soon to come.

Today we are announcing a big Material Rebalance!

Until now, there were not many ways to spend your materials and a lot of ways to farm them. Such lack of balance leads to a significant inflation, so this update is crucial for economic growth.

The materials are a key part of the crafting mechanics, so we wanted to improve the current balance of material economy in the game, so they will have an increased value and had a high demand on the marketplace.

This update will reduce the global material drop chance, but don't worry, the fish drop chance remains the same. The chance to catch materials in your fishing session will be reduced 2x.

The update will be uploaded to Testnet today at 18:00 along with the Equipment Upgrade Update.

This will lead to a massive boost in material value and will create new opportunities for marketplace trading.

Share your thoughts about this update in the community chat, Captains, and stay ready for the news to follow.

You have been waiting for it almost since the game first released, and now it's finally here!

The Off-Chain Repair Tools Update is now active on Mainnet!

We will continue telling you about new updates that are coming soon next week, and for now, stay sharp and try out the Off-Chain Tools!

The updates just keep coming! Today we want to talk about the upcoming Item Upgrade Update.

Let's begin with something that you've been waiting for. The equipment's Level Up WOD cost will be reduced more than 2x. Here's the cost for one level per rarity:

60 WOD
100 WOD
250 WOD
550 WOD
1100 WOD
1700 WOD

We hope that this recalculation will make leveling up your equipment seem like a fair investment.

Apart from that, we are planning on adding "Upgrade Kits", that you will going to need to upgrade your Epic, Legendary and Artifact equipment.

The Upgrade Kits are going to be craftable for 1 material of the same rarity as the equipment you want to upgrade with it. To craft an Epic Upgrade Kit, you will have to use any Epic material.

From our point of view, this update will achieve two goals at one time: to inspire players to upgrade their equipment and to make the materials more useful, especially given the fact that we're going to reduce it's drop chance in future updates.

We want to hear your opinion about the Upgrade Kit mechanics and if you like it, we will bring it to you in future updates, so please share your thoughts in the community chat.

Don't let your guard down, Captains, the big news will keep coming in the following days!
