The roguelite city builder Against the Storm got a new patch rife with new features that you’ll surely love. The Twitch Integration update brought new quality-of-life improvements, especially in the Consumption Control Panel.
Eremite Games introduced the Consumption Control Panel in Against the Storm to manage which foods your species can consume. Back then, you’d have to painstakingly put a checkmark on every food for each species, which is quite a time-consuming process.
Fortunately, in the Twitch Integration update, a new checkbox has been added to let you forbid a need for all three species with just one click. This is a good quality-of-life feature for sure!
The company has optimized game performance as well. For instance, you might notice a performance improvement in the Scarlet Orchard biome. According to Eremite Games, this biome was more demanding than the rest because of detailed assets and thick foliage. Perhaps you can give it a try after updating the game to the latest version and let us know about your experience in the comments section.
