There was a delay in the development of a new version - well, gamedev is a hobby for all of us and we can not devote all our time to it.
However now the work continues. Next version that will most likely be released in July will contain a couple of new side quests, new landing party weapons, new humanity upgrades (e.g. bonuses to a sight and target range of a landing party), gui and control improvements.
Most of corrections and new features are inspired by you - and you help us greatly by providing feedback and your ideas.
Though sometimes a bug can also help. Remember that green acid weapon that a mutant in the Heritage quest was using? Accidentally due to a bug it was received by a landing party, and it turned out to be so cool that we decided to introduce it in the game.
We are always open for a new ideas, so feel free to open a discussion if you have any, together we can make the game better!
Update 0.5.2
Version 0.5.2 has been released. This update contains bug fixes and balance improvements based on Steam players reports. Thanks for those who posted bug descriptions and suggestions!
What's new:
Increased chance of Earth-like planet generation, should increase chances of establishing a colony
Reduced geodata research points, should not be that easy to achieve Tech Singularity achievement now
Acid rains will no longer spawn instantly. Instead they will spawn on a small area and increase in size each turn. So landing party will never be suddenly trapped in the middle of deadly rain that came out of nowhere.
Added 'skip turn' button to the planetary mission gui.
Added hotkeys for inventory and map
Landing party weapons are no longer visible in inventory and should be selected only on landing party page. Fixed problem with weapon list being empty.
Fixed bug with last line of dialogs and trade lists not showing.
Fixed possible crash after escaping star system in FTL quest.
Fixed scientists being duplicated in Quarantine quest.
