Whale’s Mundo v0.7.0 - Behind the Tutorial

Let’s dive into what’s new:

What’s New ?

🎓 A Complete Tutorial Experience

New to Whale’s Mundo? Now you’re guided every step of the way!

We’ve built a full tutorial system from the ground up to make your first runs smoother, more intuitive, and instantly engaging.

• Learn how to play step-by-step, from card combos to energy and scoring.
• Narrative flavor is woven into the teaching steps — you’re not just learning the rules, you’re being initiated into the rebellion.

💰 Welcome to the UnderMarket

A major new feature arrives: the UnderMarket, a shop-like scene where you can spend Crown coins—earned through smart gameplay—to acquire powerful items.

• Crown Economy: your performance now feeds into a growing in-game economy—earn Crowns by scoring well, and reinvest them.
• Lore Integration: the UnderMarket is run by exiled rebels who deal in rare, unstable tech... for a price.

🎨 Updated Visuals with Lore Accuracy

We’ve redesigned the main menu and updated key assets to better reflect the underground, crypto-dystopian world of Whale’s Mundo:

• A visual identity that's starting to settle — dark, coded, and rebellious.

🔊 New Sound & Music

You’ll now hear:

• Distinct sound cues for scoring and card effects.
• A moody, ambient soundtrack
• More satisfying, polished feedback loops to enhance understanding and immersion.

⚙️ General Improvements & Polish

• Improved board feedback when scoring.
• Minor bug fixes and smoother performance.
• Crown coin system added to the UI.

What’s Next?

Whale’s Mundo has now entered its advanced prototype phase, where play-testing is at the heart of development.

We're refining the game's UI/UX feel to move closer to a production-ready standard, matching the aesthetic and functional tone of our dystopian world.

But beyond mechanics and polish, we’re also sharpening the narrative edge of the game. In the next iteration, Whale’s Mundo will lean harder into its role as a satirical reflection of our tech-obsessed society—from AI hype cycles to crypto cults. This world isn’t just a backdrop—it’s a commentary.

Expect upcoming updates to focus on polish, clarity, and cohesion, while keeping experimentation alive.
