Thank you!!!

SimplePlanes 2 has been the best PC launch we’ve ever had, reaching 1063 peak concurrent players on Steam this past Saturday, breaking the record of 885 concurrent players that the original SimplePlanes set 10 whole years ago. We really can’t thank you all enough for playing and enjoying SP2. We’ve poured our hearts into it for years, and it’s been so amazing seeing that work pay off in such a fantastic way. This is only the beginning of our early access journey, and we can’t wait to discover what the future holds with you all <3

Anyway, here are those patch notes:
