Greetings, dear inhabitants of the dwarven kingdom,

It has been 5 days since the mines opened, and we warmly thank you for your support and feedback.

We are now officially releasing the first update to the mine galleries, featuring improvements, bug fixes, and new mechanics.

Mechanics:

• Added a new mechanic allowing players to challenge other players’ bluffs. Some of you enjoyed bluffing at every opportunity, but this could create major imbalances.
  You can now challenge a bid during auctions to verify whether a player is bluffing.
  If your challenge is correct, your opponent must fold. Otherwise, if they had enough money to cover the bid, you must fold instead.

• Reworked the bribe item: it now affects any visible merchant, regardless of their social class (owner stock, unionized, or phase 1).

Quality of Life:

• Improved payslip: you can now see in detail who you are paying taxes to, which items you bought, and who stole your money.

• Improved history: better readability, with added tracking of dice rerolls, item usage, and money theft.

• Improved lobby creation: a lobby name is now automatically suggested based on your username.

• Added a version checker: no more risk of starting a game without being up to date. A pop-up will notify you whether you are on the same version as the host when joining a lobby.

• Added new tooltips in both lobby and gameplay.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where a bot could get stuck in the first tutorial, causing the tutorial to completely freeze.

• Fixed color selection in the lobby: a warning now appears when selecting the same color as another player.

• Fixed the “heavy animations” option not properly disabling in the tutorial.

• Fixed minimap tooltips not displaying correctly.

• Fixed an issue where skins could fail to display in the tutorial.

• Attempted fix for a server crash issue requiring players to restart the game. We are still investigating.

• Attempted fix for an infinite loading issue when starting a game from a lobby. Players will now be returned to the menu if game creation fails. Investigation is ongoing.

Thank you again to everyone who purchased the game and shared feedback. Thanks to you, À la Mine keeps improving every day.
