Dear Fermi Paradox Community,

After a long break we are back with an update for the Metis update. Doing game development with a 10 month baby at home is quite a challenge so it took us some time to finish the Metis update, named again after a Jupiter moon. 

Our main focus for the Metis update is to improve the experience for first players, since we got a lot of feedback from first time players, who were confused about Robot Uprisings and First Contact, so we added ingame tutorial popups to help with these issues. 

Also we are introducing Terraforming events. These events are available for colonies in the FTL age and can change the type of a planet. We observed during the endgame, how sometimes FTL organic colonies struggle to keep up with FTL synthetic societies, mainly because there were only a few Paradigm Shift events in the game that remove the colony status effect, blocking the FTL colonies from archiving the final technology.

We are continue working on the next big update and writing events for the upcoming Nano Age. All artworks are done and 50% of the texts are finished by now.

And as always, a big thanks to the community for your patience and support.
