Finding Color in the Ashes Alpha 2.3
🕑 Added 2025-10-04 22:11:57 +0000 UTCHello! We've got a new build for Finding Color in the Ashes.
The 2.3 build focuses on bringing hirable adventurers into the game - you'll now have some help in keeping the danger levels in the forest in check (as long as you don't mind spending a little gold to get it done).
We made a post yesterday detailing the new system if you are curious about how it all works.
Outside of that, we have some new art, new events, a new scene with Scout, and a handful of fixes and little adjustments.
This will make the second systems-heavy update in a row, both taking a little longer than usual, so our next update will likely be more content focused and be out a little quicker.
As always, let us know if you encounter any crazy bugs. Thanks again and enjoy!

System just isn't finished. You'll be able to build and upgrade them in winter (and beyond) in the next update.

So, the outposts system is nice, however not being able to upgrade them in winter is a real problem imo

Oh and a suggestion you've probably heard but I would love special encounters with some of the other NPCs like Ole and the Beastkin Scout.
