The release of 0.18 went well! In subsequent days, we released a bunch of small updates, bringing the current version number to 0.18.0.9. They’re mostly tiny fixes, but some are worth extra attention. The biggest one concerns Remote Play Together, which can be used to play Split Screen Colony Survival with friends on distant ...

This update does exactly what it says on the cover. Plug in a controller, divide your monitor in two and play the game with a friend right next to you! Enabling Split Screen will generate a second character who has the same capabilities as the first. The second player can start their own colony, explore the world on their own...

A big new update is live on Steam right now! It should make the game a lot more accessible to new players, and it should speed up some of the slowest days of starting a new colony. There is a new tab next to the stockpile: “Quests”. These are missions that should guide you through the core of the game. They contain a goal and...

The next update is 0.16.1, not 0.17. This means: no major changes to content, but a whole bunch of improvements to Quality of Life. Tweaks that make playing the game more convenient. The ugliest menu in the game was the Notifications tab. It was a chaotic, work-in-progress UI. It’s a lot more functional and pleasing to look a...

Update 0.16 is live right now! It adds the Oddity Press, a new automatic crafter that produces mainly decorative items, and new beds. Its content largely matches the content of the Beta, so we’ll refer you to that blog for those details. The Beta was useful, and we found all kinds of little glitches. They’ve all been patched now. We also added some new content. Chairs were missing, so we’ve added ...

The Beta is live right now! Precise instructions on how to join it appear later in this blog. The main content addition is the Oddity Press. It’s an automated crafter, like the Mill. The Mill makes essential items for the start of the game, and the Oddity Press does the opposite - most of its items utterly lack functionality, and are purely meant for decorative purposes. There’s one exception: the...

All changes mentioned in this blog concern the internal dev build. Nothing has been released publicly yet. This month, work on the Oddity Press has continued. It works like the Mill: specific items will be produced there, over time, without a colonist present. But the Oddity Press will be unlocked later in the game, and it ma...
