Mass Exodus Redux
Mass Exodus Online Multiplayer / Remote Play
Setting up a Remote Play game is simple. Whoever hosts has to be the seeker (VR) and they can invite up to 4 PC players. The only restriction is 1 of these players can use a keyboard and mouse, the others need to be on game controllers.
More info on setting up a Remote Play game is here https://store.steampowered.com/remoteplay?snr=1_7_7_230
As Steam said “Launch the game, invite friends and BOOM you’re playing together”
Enlight of this we will not be developing an online multiplayer version of Mass Exodus at the moment.
Let us know how you get on with Remote Play, we have found it really stable.

It's been a while...
We've been crazily busy here at Polymerse on some huge projects (which you can see if you follow us on Facebook!) which has meant we haven't had time to visit the Mass Exodus factory as often as we'd like.
We're happy to announce we're gonna be full steam ahead sorting out some issues that have been pointed out by the community and even some quality of life features for the game.
Thanks for staying with us while we've been clocked out, but we're back to work the emergency shift.
Thanks again.

Freebies and fixes!
We understand there's still some issues with the main branch of the game, we're currently working on performance and some other little things. These will get updated as soon as we're happy with them.
We do ask that you make sure you've tried running the game on lower settings before posting that it about performance issues, and if you do, give us your specs headset type and OS.
As a big apology and a thank you to everyone, we're going to upgrade everyone who has the PC only client to the full version of the game for free! This way you won't have to pay to upgrade when you get a VR headset.
Thankyou for being patient with us.
