v. 2406111837 (12 June 2024)
Hello everyone!
Here's a new patch with a lot of different topics! We keep on working on those bugs you're having, but we're also tweaking the balencing and adding/fixing stuff linked to overall QoL. That's a lot to read, but here's a patchnote that lists the changes!
And as usual, thanks for playing Synergy, and for all your feedback!
Have a wonderful day,
Patch #2 - 12/06/2024
Balancing
- Bunch tree shadow will now correctly decrease temperature
- Reduce road and canal destroy duration
- New plants added by a spread are now immediately sorted in clusters. It should prevent the creation of stacked plants
- Districts that increase max satisfaction also increase current satisfaction
- Temperature control balancing:
- Increase tree shadow size from 5-7 to 7
- Plants that increase organic matter now also reduce temperature by 5, except trees which were already applying shadow (shadow reduce temperature by 10 and increase wellbeing by 5)
- Reduce Plants range from 5 to 4
- Elements that are considered as "water point" (canal, fountains and well) now reduce temperature by 5 (non-cumulative with each other)
- Sun awning now apply Shadow in its range (shadow reduce temperature by 10 and increase wellbeing by 5). Its range has been reduced from 10 to 5. It doesn't increase wellbeing in range anymore since shadow is already increasing wellbeing. Its construction cost is now 12 tree tunks and 6 resin.
- Tapping a sunshade tree is now possible and gives resin, making resin easier to obtain in the second scenario of the campaign.

- Several minor fixes in FR and EN only
v. 2406061037 (6 June 2024)
Hello everyone!
Let's go for our first patch! Why is it now called a patch instead of a hotfix? Well basically we kept the Hotfix term for the quickfixes after the release. Now that we're more on a cruising pace, it felt more appropriate to stop calling them Hotfixes. Also, as the "Minor Update" term is used in our Roadmap, we don't want to use that word because it'd be confusing. You might think that I'm thinking too much for just 3 words! And I might be, but I still think semantics are important :D
Anyway, the big news here is that we updated our version of Unity, fixing a video memory issue. What it does mean is that the memory issues might've been the source of a lot of different crashes or performance issues, and this might fix it for you. Do not hesitate to come and tell us if you still have those problems!
There are also a lot of different bug fixes, a bit of QoL and balancing in there. To know more about that, please read the patchnote below
Thanks a lot for playing Synergy!

v. 2405232238 (24 May 2024)
Hello everyone!
We're pushing a third hotfix, this one specifically for a single bug - but an annoying one. We're also aware of an issue where, sometimes, UI buttons (like destroying a building, or accelerating time) do not work as intended on click. However, you should still be able to use them with the keyboard shortcuts
We're actively working on this and will push a fix as soon as possible!
Hotfix #3
- Fixing a bug where, when reloading a save, citizens assignation in buildings was not conform to when the save occured
