-Fixed bug that made newly started multiplayer games go into deadlock after picking tribes.
1.11 May 24, 2018 “Rainbow A”Edit
Ever since the dawn of Polytopian time, unicorns and rainbows have been a popular demand by the community. Now the time has come! I have teamed up with the most imaginative person I know, my 5-year old kid, to create a tribe out of the ordinary. Unicorns, Dragons, Polytaurs and crystal sanctuaries. Meet the ∑∫ỹriȱŋ!
1.10.3 Mar 27, 2018 Edit

-fixed the "black screen of death" bug that some older iPads suffered from.
1.10.1 Feb 15, 2018 Edit
-Fixed a bug that caused some multiplayer games to stop working.
Still: After months of testing and blisters on my keyboard fingers it is finally here: Challenge your friends and enemies in ONLINE MULTIPLAYER games! -Works cross platform (Android & iOS) -Free for anyone who has purchased any of the paid tribes. -Up to 12 Players in each game.
We are also sporting an updated UI that looks a lot more squoochie and wimbiewoo. Full resolution support for all devices, including iPhone X.
This is the first take on online multiplayer and I have lots of cool things I want to add to it in the future. Midjiwan is basically a one man operation so development will take some time. In the meantime, play nice!

1.5 Oct 6, 2016 Edit
The Battle between the tribes gets more intense each day and with over a million tribal leaders out there the high score obviously gets crowded. So, in this version we have created unique leaderboards for each tribe. Now all Oumaji fans can compete with each other and the Kickoo warriors can have their own little gathering in their leaderboard. There is also the all mighty collected High Score list of course to show who the real winner is.
You will now receive a 3-star rating on each game you play, and it is saved per tribe in the throne room.
I also put a tiny effort into improving the AI and the automated scout a bit (a bigger AI update will come in the future).
Last but not least there are rumours of a new shining easter egg.. (more hints on instagram @midjiwan).
Rest asure that we are hard at work with -Multiplayer-, but it is not ready for your eyes yet.
1.4.1 Aug 10, 2016 Edit
