|---|---|---|
| Hotfix v1.1.3: coins that just landed stay put | 2026-10-25 | Two more from your reports.When Coins on screen is full, a coin is cleared for every new one. The cleanup could take a coin the very moment it settled, so coins that had just landed, often right in front of an arm, vanished while older ones lay untouched. It now only takes coins that have lain still for a few seconds, oldest first, and coins on their way into a collector go last. Thanks to GoulHunter for the video that showed it so clearly!Keys 1–6 (top row or keypad) open that island's arm panel; press again to close it. Listed in Settings → Controls. Thanks to daMagerLDN for the idea!A small favourCoin Harvest is made by one person, and Ste |
| Hotfix v1.1.2: no more coins lost after ascending | 2026-10-25 | Another one from v1.1.0. Thanks to Pric3d for describing it so clearly and following up when my first answer was wrong.Right after an ascension, many of the first coins dropped straight through the plateau and were lost, so your income sat at 0.0/s until it sorted itself out. The new ascension animation turned the coins' collisions off while drawing them into its light, and coins reused afterwards came back without them. Fixed.Coins that ever fall off the world are now cleared, so they can't fill up your Coins on screen.When there are too many coins on screen, the coins already on their way into an island's collector are now the last to be cl |
| Hotfix v1.1.1: your settings stick again | 2026-10-25 | Sorry about this one. v1.1.0 brought a bug that made the game start with its default settings every time and save them back when you quit, so nothing you changed in Settings stayed. Thanks to daMagerLDN for tracking it down so precisely, right to the line in the settings file.Settings load again when the game starts. If v1.1.0 reset yours, please take a moment to set them again (Coins on screen, sounds, window, effects and the rest); from now on they stay.Right after an ascension the income could read 0.0/s for a while, as if the coins were vanishing. They weren't: the readout only looked at the last half second, and early in a realm, with on |
| Update v1.1.0: Auto-buy, safer saves, an Islands overview and a lot more light | 2026-10-24 | This one grew far bigger than a hotfix, so it gets a new number. It's everything since v1.0.8, and most of it started in your reviews and reports.Auto-buy"No upgrade automation," said qoo462002's review, and that was fair. Settings → Auto-buy:It opens with your first ascension for arm upgrades and with your third for Flow upgrades. Every ascension after that makes it quicker.Pick which arm upgrades it buys, and how much of your coins a single purchase may cost (1 to 100 %), so you can still save up for something big.It always takes the cheapest of what you picked first, a few at a time.Safer savesA crash or power cut at the wrong moment could |
| Hotfix v1.0.8: exchanging down is free again, and the stuck ×10 | 2026-10-21 | Exchanging down into lower realms is free againThank you, 神法克, for saying it plainly in your review: in v1.0.7 I went too far. The problem I set out to fix was coins moving up, where a hoard from an old realm could buy out a new realm in its first minute. But the limit I added also stopped coins moving down, from a higher realm into a lower one, and that was never a problem. Realms open one after another, so a lower realm is one you have already played through, and pouring a fortune into it is simply fun. I took that away by mistake, and I'm sorry.Exchanging from a higher realm into a lower one has no limit again.Only coins going up into a mo |
| Hotfix v1.0.7: translations, a realm correction and fixes from your reports | 2026-10-21 | Thanks for every report in the discussions and on Discord. This update is built from them.TranslationsEnglish fixes too: statistics said "GPS" for coins per second, the arm panel said "False" instead of "Off", milestone notifications showed a dollar sign, and an achievement said "all 6 realms" when it asks for 6 of the 10.Old names cleaned up: the shop and tutorial say coins instead of gold, island statistics say "Arm sweeps" everywhere, and "Dimension Shift" is now called what it is, unlocking a new realm.A correction to how coins move between realmsThis one was my mistake. When I gave every realm its own coin, I let ascension carry-overs an |
| Hotfix v1.0.4: window clicks, leaderboards, Orchid arms and Russian | 2026-10-20 | Thanks again for every report and review, they made this patch.FixesWindow not taking clicks: on some PCs clicks went straight through the game window, especially with Always on top off. New Settings → Window → Transparent window: turn it off and clicks always arrive. The game also switches it off by itself if it notices clicks passing through.Leaderboards now work.Orchid: the arms on islands 3 and 4 reach the plateau again.Russian: the some translations were reviewed and corrected.Long texts no longer get cut off in the upgrade, arm, shop and realm panels.Decay Speed is now called Boost Duration and shows how much longer your Pour boost last |
| Hotfix v1.0.3: coin cap fixed, Time Warp and Pour balanced | 2026-10-19 | Thank you for all the reviews and reports in the first day. This hotfix goes straight at the biggest ones.Coin limitCoins on their way to an island are never removed anymore. Only coins lying still are cleared, and only when the limit is reached.What goes first: coins scattered off the plateau, then the oldest coins at the far end of the island lanes (already paid), and the plateau's own pile last.The limit is now soft: moving coins are left alone up to twice the limit.Default max coins raised from 600 to 800 (if you never changed it, you get the new default).BalanceTime Warp: its price doubles with each use and resets when you ascend. It now |
