Happy New Year 2023!
So 2022 is coming to an end, and it's time to take stock and tell us about our future plans.

The most notable things that were done during the year:

  • Before the release of the early access the game appeared a tutorial.
    Yes, it was dryly written, but it allowed many players to master the game and will be complemented by an interactive tutorial in the future (more about this below).
  • The game has been translated into 9 languages: Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish.
    All localizations are posted online and many players have helped with the edits, for which I am eternally grateful!
  • Game in Early Access
    With the release of the game in early access, I received a huge amount of feedback and suggestions from players, all of it recorded and serves as material for the release of new versions
  • Added resource basket for easier purchase of materials
  • Added horizontal slashing of buildings
  • Game moved to newer engine version
  • Fixed problems with staff navigation, added navigation beacons and displaying staff paths.
  • Added separate room for servicing robots and spacious apartments
  • Many notifications were made non-modal and do not interrupt gameplay
  • Optimized performance especially for large colonies and reduced game size
  • Full support for custom scripts and modifications (with uploading to Steam Steam Wizard)
  • New interiors and individual furniture for Chinese, Japanese and European cuisine
  • New research, new resources and equipment for their production
  • Alternative game camera
  • Added many new sounds
  • Redrawn all icons


Also in the past year, the plan for the early access release was finalized:
v0.12

  • automatic purchasing, shipping, and selling of cargo.
  • scheduling the turning on and off of individual equipment or entire rooms
  • separate personnel control panel
  • automatic transfer of personnel via network of stations
  • different sized equipment
  • redesigned cafe Russian, American and Indian kitchens


v0.13

  • Temperature and radiation will be redesigned and their effect on the colonies will be more significant.
  • Natural disasters will be added (solar flares, meteor showers, dust storms, etc.)
  • Wireless energy transfer between colonies


v0.14

  • Hygiene - facilities, equipment and mechanics related to it
  • Disease and medicine (injuries, pandemics, treatment methods, their impact on gameplay)


v0.15

  • Factions/Societies/Groups and the interaction between them
  • Androids and Clones
  • Interstellar Ship Creation and Dispatch (no arrival to another star yet)


v0.16

  • interface redesign

v1.0

After the early access release the game will continue to evolve and I will post further plans.
