Since our last announcement, we've released several updates to the game. Here is a round-up of this month's changes!

Change log

Design Changes:

• Tier I and Tier II units now grant a gold bounty of 50% of their construction cost. This is intended to make the the early stages of the game a little more forgiving of mistakes, and help the losing player rebound.
  
• Multiplayer games (Ranked and Unranked modes) now have a randomly increased starting pool of gold and Battle Points. This gets you to the interesting part of each game quicker, and should get us away from a tired old build order formula. You can read more extensive commentary on this forum post.
  

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a bug with keys or mouse buttons getting "stuck" in an inverted state where pressed = not pressed, and vice versa.
  
• Decompression errors in PNG files no longer automatically quit the program. This will hopefully make TW more tolerant to corrupted PNG files.
  
• Network communications with our servers are now more fault-tolerant and should fail more gracefully, and are less frequent and shorter in duration. This will hopefully reduce freezing behavior due to server load, and due to poor internet service.
  
• Disabled an unused and broken screenshot feature which seems to have somehow unintentionally triggered on one user's game. This has no effect on Steam screenshots -- those still work.
  
• Casualty Creek: fans and hammers orient correctly on the blue side.
  
• Casualty Creek: collision fixes to stop units from getting stuck or falling through the map.
  
• GUI: Tower update UI, upon opening, now properly refreshes to the currently selected tower.
  

Known issues:

• Casualty Creek: fan wind visual effect seems to blow in reverse in some locations. Please note that the gameplay effect of the fan still works correctly. It's a subtle bug in the visuals only.
  
• In any update, there is a small chance of files failing to download properly. If you have any trouble, please Verify Integrity first before reporting a bug.
