v0.12 - Economics, coups, and technical improvements


Major changes:

  • Added an inflation variable, and relationships between inflation/deflation, unemployment, and spending.
  • New events: High Inflation, Labor Unrest
  • New economic plan: moderate/reformist plan
  • Added a tabbed view in the status sidebar, showing more information.
  • Easy mode now has 4 cards in the hand.
  • New achievement: Freie Marktwirtschaft (survive to the end of 1933 without adopting an economic plan)
  • New options for President Braun when dealing with a right-wing majority.
  • Prussian coup can end peacefully (in a similar way as the March on Berlin)

Minor changes:

  • New text if Hitler has been deported and the Nazis take power anyway.
  • Slightly easier to win against the coups without a civil war.
  • Various bugfixes

Future changes:

  • Parliament diagrams for visualization
  • After that’s implemented, I’m probably going to work on the Steam release. I hope to release on Steam by November 9, the date of the proclamation of the German Republic. Edit: actually, I hope to release well before then. But I have to pick a somewhat meaningful date…

Potential future changes:

  • History/records of major events in the game (chart showing how party support changes over time, maybe)
  • GDP as an economic variable
  • Quality of Life as an economic variable for every social class
  • “Historical mode”
  • “Unlimited Play”
