Keplerth Update: Enhanced Mod Support and Game Adjustments

Taro Studio has announced an exciting update for its popular indie title, Keplerth, focusing on expanding mod support and implementing various game adjustments. This update marks a significant step forward in enhancing player engagement and creativity.

New Features

The latest patch introduces support for the Steam Workshop, allowing players to explore and create a wider range of mods. This new functionality enables users to manage their mods directly from the main menu, making it more convenient to customize their gameplay experience. Notably, players can now create simple mods without any programming knowledge, utilizing JSON file editing to generate new items, creatures, and resources.

Game Adjustments

In addition to the new mod capabilities, the game has undergone substantial code refactoring, improving overall stability and performance. Most notably, the code is now fully accessible, allowing for greater transparency and community involvement. The update also includes an increased drop rate for accessories from chests, enhancing the gameplay experience.

Bug Fixes

Several critical bugs have been addressed in this update, including issues with the Meco Boss reset mechanics, keybinding conflict error messages, and the glowing effects of light sources. These fixes aim to provide a smoother and more immersive gameplay experience.

Development Progress

The development team has shared their current progress on various planned features, indicating that many aspects, such as friendly NPCs, a trading system, and pet mechanics, are already included in the game. Ongoing work includes improvements to the Steam Workshop mod support, a trap system, and an events system. Future features, such as NPC quests and a comprehensive achievement system, are still in the planning stages.

Taro Studio remains committed to maintaining frequent updates and transparent communication with the community. They express their gratitude for the continued support from players and look forward to enhancing the Keplerth experience together.
