- Devlog #11: Upgraded gantry - 27 January 2022
Greetings, Fellow Mechanics! It’s been a while since the Demo has been released and yet we still receive a lot of invaluable feedback from you! Thank you for that! Know that we take all your suggestions and reports into account and make use of them to turn Soyuz Constructors into a much better game! We’re working on an update that will address some of the issues you encountered in the Demo. Once testing proves that it’s ready for a release, we’ll let you know. 🙂 Other than that, our focus has been on developing and expanding the game to a much more polished Prologue. One of the things that has been included in the game is a gantry and we’d like to tell you about it today! You might recall that gantry had been mentioned in one of earlier devlogs back when it was in the early stage of development. In the end, it didn’t make an appearance in the Demo, but with more demanding engines comin…

- Devlog #9: Hangar - 30 June 2021
Greetings, Fellow Constructors! After a few months we’re back with a new devlog! Our team has been hard at work further polishing the mechanics, as well as slowly shaping up the environment of the game. In Soyuz Constructors, you’ll be spending hours in the vast hangar. gathering materials and building various rocket parts according to instructions. It was essential to craft your work environment with proper care, while paying attention to details. The process required gathering as many resources and references as we possibly could, and then creating designs based on them. Today, we’d like to show you some results of our work. 🙂 Let’s start big – here is the aforementioned hangar. It’s big enough to fit in a few big rockets, so you can work comfortably without worrying about lack of space. Of course, as great as it would be to know everything about rocket building right off the bat, ma…
- Devlog #8: More core mechanics improvements and a gantry - 25 March 2021
Dear Engineers! Thank you for interest and checking out 8th devlog for Soyuz Constructors! Let’s jump straight to the interesting part. That is, recent development progress! 🚀 Currently, all of our efforts go into core mechanics of the game, to make sure we deliver the best gameplay experience possible! While your task in the game will be to build rocket engines with certain requirements, we would also like to give you some freedom during the process. Therefore, we’ve added some small but, as we believe, important changes. Snapped parts will now fall off the core if you put weight on them without fastening them first. If only a few screws were holding the material in place, the impact of component tearing off the core will destroy these screws. Therefore, it’s best to not leave the work only half-done, as you can permanently lose some of your resources! https://i.imgur.com/rql6oy2.gif…

- Devlog #7: Rocket Engine Model - 28 January 2021
Dear Constructors! Welcome to the 7th development update! This time, we would like to show you the model of the rocket engine RD 108/107! Our 3d graphic designers modelled the rocket engine RD 108/107 based on the reference images they had priorly collected. They are still working on this model, so keep in mind that these renders don't represent the engine's final look. Of course, the engine model will be realistic to some point; our 3d graphic designers have to simplify the model due to gameplay restrictions and optimization. You're going to assemble this engine completely from scratch, so while assembling, you will be learning about the engine's components. Every constructor in the Soviet Space Program should know how the engine is built! Join Discord Community! If you have any suggestions or ideas, don't hesitate to post them on our Discord server! Your Sincerely, Soyuz Constructors…
- Devlog #6: Soyuz Constructors - 10 December 2020
Dear Constructors! We've changed the name of our game to better reflect the game mechanics! Our soviet-era rocket builder is now called Soyuz Constructors! 🚀 Now let's move on to our recent progress! We are constantly working on game improvements. In this month we've been focusing on testing core mechanics in previously prepared internal pre-alpha build, mainly building a rocket and assembling. https://i.imgur.com/29tVCqs.gif In order to test building and assembling, we've added this giant rocket to the main construction hangar! We've also added more tools and devices! https://i.imgur.com/LxuPzyx.gif What is more, we are still working on the new UI. Our UI designer prepared really nice concepts, and we're checking which of them will be the best! https://i.imgur.com/ZD5mIkY.png Keep in mind that the game is still in development, and we’re sharing with you work in progress. There will be…
- Devlog#5: Improvements of core mechanics - 10 November 2020
Dear Engineers! We’re back with another devlog focused on the recent progress! Last month we spent working on core mechanics, tools and we worked on preparing an internal vertical slice pre-alpha build of current features. Recently, we’ve started improving the Hotbar. For instance, after picking up small items like the screws, they will automatically stack up in one Hotbar slot. https://i.imgur.com/6NqUY9o.gif Items in the Hotbar slots can be selected during gameplay. After choosing the stack of screws in the inventory in order to use them, they will appear in the storage jar, which can be put in a warehouse locker. https://i.imgur.com/o1GADSp.gif We’ve also improved the assembly process. While snapping components to the rocket engine, the ghost will appear after a second. https://i.imgur.com/WEXmwFF.gif Keep in mind that the game is still in development, and we’re sharing with you work…
- Devlog #4: Welding - 30 September 2020
Dear Engineers! Today we would like to talk about the another step in assembling a rocket engine, which is welding. https://i.imgur.com/Xud82FM.gif First off, you have to collect all the tools and components. Then, you have to place prepared components in the right place, and after that you can start welding. You’ll have a welding machine/welder, and other required equipment at your disposal. https://i.imgur.com/02eyelU.gif Keep in mind that the game is in the early stage of development, and we’re sharing with you work in progress. Feel free to share your suggestions on Steam Forum, or on our Discord server. Kind Regards, Soviet Space Engineers Team https://store.steampowered.com/app/1120220/Soviet_Space_Engineers/
