Principals rejoice, because the 0.4.0.0 update is coming today! Another day, another step towards progress, right?

This time, we are adding a major feature, and expand on an existing one. Both of them will flesh out the world even further and add new things to do (and consider) when you’re out there managing your academy.

First thing first, we have added the final part to the political feature: the faction relations system! You might know that managing a relationship is hard, but managing relationships with factions that has different ideology and goals? Hoo boy, now that’s even trickier.

Fret not though, this is a fun new system that will add a new layer and intricacy to how diplomacy works in the game. Based on your academy’s standing with a particular faction, you might get bonuses and penalties that will change the way you play – so plan out your move from the get-go!


Diplomacy update

Now for the second part, we’ve added not one, but two new gameplay elements in this feature! We added two new things that you – with your students as proxy – can do, and it has to do with... Well, making the gameplay more fun and varied with optional stuffs you can do. Can you guess what it is?



If you answered minigames, then congratulations! Go ahead and pat yourself in the back!

There’s two minigames we’ve implemented, and both are aquatic in nature, which are swimming and fishing. So go on then, catch a big one or make like a fish and start flapping your arms like fins yourself!
