Playtest

Steam post image If you can't wait then this is not a problem, go ahead and download the playtest application. As I aim to devlop this game together with the community it is very importatnt to involve you as soon as possible. Test it, break it, and I will fix it. We also have a Discord server now where you can talk and hangout with me as I devlop this game. If you have any suggestions or wishes, let me know via twitter or Discord. Join Discord Server

Ship Builder

The ship is your home and place of calm to prepare your next adventure. As you will sail the endless oceans it needs to be cozy, right? This is why you have the opportunity to build your ship from scratch where I want to provide as few restrictions as possible. As not everyone is an expert ship engeneer I already added the Steam Workshop to the game for your usage. There you can share your amazing Creations and also subscribe to Blueprints of others to use it in your own play trough. Here is one I created to test how big you can build your ship, I had to notice the limit is not easy to reach so this only marks a middle ground of size. I can now savely say that the limit will mostlikely be your imagination rather than the build limit. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2301574043

Survival

As stated above the Shipbuilder is already in the hands of the alpha testers, this gives me time to work on the survival mechanics. All you see below is heavy work in progess but you can see we're progressing faster than I ever Imagined!

Roadmap

Here you can see how far the devlopment has progressed so far.

Thank you for reading you are a real hero!
