added🎯 We've introduced overkilling debris . If your weapons destroy an entire piece of debris right off the bat with a single hit, you'll instantly get all of the credits and resources for that without the debris first breaking up into more pieces. This mean you'll be earning more money and resources to spend on your station much earlier.
changed🛠️ We've made it clearer when you're in build mode vs. when you're in view mode. Because time passes more slowly in build mode, not being sure what mode you're in meant that the game felt slower when spending most time building. We've got plans to make this work even better in the future, but hopefully this little tweak will help in the meantime.

Hi everyone!

It's been a fantastic Next Fest week so far and we've been thrilled at how many people have checked out the demo! We've been busy collating all your feedback, reading your comments, and even watching (/lurking?!) one or two of your livestreams - and we've made a few small but meaningful updates that will hopefully mean even more fun for everyone!

  • 🎓 You can skip parts of the tutorial if you don't fancy hearing all of the instructional dulcet tones of our wonderful narrator.

That's all for now! Enjoy! Wishlist! Play! Live! Thrive!
