The second tab of the kittens game is where I force my kittens into labor. I noticed the name change sometimes but wasn't sure if my mind played tricks with me. Recently it happened again, and I know for sure now. Is this due to updates of the game, or related to some other in-game property?

I looked into the source code and it turns out to it is directly related to the amount of living kittens. The relevant part of the code is the following: (in village.js)
getVillageTitle: function(){ var kittens = this.game.village.getKittens(); if (kittens > 300){ return "Imperium"; } else if (kittens > 200){ return "Metropolis"; } if (kittens > 150){ return "City"; } else if (kittens > 100){ return "Town"; } else if (kittens > 50){ return "Small town"; } else if (kittens > 30){ return "Settlement"; } else if (kittens > 15){ return "Village"; } else if (kittens > 0){ return "Small Village"; } else { return "Outpost"; }
}Right now I have 55 kittens, so I just upgraded from Settlement to Small Town. I am not going to try to kill some kittens to check if my village downgrades again, but it should.
