Tobii EyeX Update...

Hey everyone,

We just pushed an update that includes a major polish pass of the Tobii EyeX implementation we added last month. With help from Tobii we overhauled our initial implementation to make it feel much better! We also added sliders to the video settings to allow users to manually adjust a few settings when using the camera.

If you are unaware of the Tobii technology please check it out at the link below.

Thanks!

Tobii EyeX Integration...

Hey guys,

We just pushed an update that includes Tobii EyeX camera support. If you have one of these really cool cameras you can now look at the edges of your cockpit to move camera based on your gaze (similar to TrackIR).

You can also quickly target ships using the EyeX key and your eyes.

It's a really cool way to interact with the game using your eyes!

HOTAS Patch is LIVE!

Hey Everyone,

As promised we have just released a patch that adds HOTAS support.

For additional info regarding the patch please visit the Joystick stickied post on the Steam forums!

Thanks!

Steam Workshop and Custom Missions Added!

Hey Everyone,

We are extremely excited to announce that Steam Workshop and Custom Mission support has been patched into the game with today's major update.

What does this mean?

You now can create and share with the community custom missions using the same exact tools we used when creating the singleplayer game!

We've created a wiki and multiple tutorial videos that cover the basics of creating and uploading a mission and you can find this information on the Steam Workshop page. Please note the wiki is still very much a work-in-progress and will be updated in the days and weeks to come.

We look forward to playing what the community creates!

LAUNCH!

When we first acquired the SOL: Exodus IP, code, and assets our plan was to simply do some enhancements to the original game.

Instead we built a whole NEW game with revamped game mechanics, visuals, all new missions, new ships, all new VO (with a much larger cast), much improved AI, and so much more.

Today we feel the game is ready for full launch. We hope fans of this genre enjoy this entry in the genre.

However, if you run across any issues please don't hesitate to post in our forums or drop us an email at support@bitplanetgames.com.

We take feedback very seriously and will do our best to respond quickly and in a timely manner (just look at how prolific we were in the forums during Early Access).

Thank you to everyone that participated in Early Access. We'll have our some news re: our next project very soon.

Thanks again!
