Sandbox kingdom builder Stonehearth has just received its Alpha 8 update, and there are new features to play with. The Blacksmith is in, who can smelt ores, forge ingots and equip our guardsmen with armour and weapons.
Mining has also been enhanced, and a party system lets us group units. The small development team at Radiant Entertainment has also worked on graphical and lighting improvements.
They plan to release a new major Alpha release each month for the next five months, "containing at least one big gameplay feature or content push." A new 15 minute video walkthrough has been posted for Alpha 8 highlighting the new changes. Check out the Stonehearth Dev Blog for more.
