• Multiplayer & More Updates - 10 February 2024

  Multiplayer & More Updates Hey everyone! We've recently released our latest patch that provides updates for the multiplayer side of the game. In addition to fixing all the bugs we could find and reproduce; we have also overhauled the process for starting and playing multiplayer! With a server browser, public lobbies, the ability to continue saved games without all players and being able to convert MP games into single player games, we believe this provides a significant upgrade to the overall multiplayer experience. Now when creating an online game you no longer are required be steam friends, you simply choose whether you want to host or join a lobby, if you want it to be a public lobby or a private one with a password and then tell your friends to join or wait for new friends! All players still need to be present in the game when saving during gameplay to remain in the save It is also…

• Important News & Mac OS Support - 12 June 2023

  News About Today's Update BUILD 2023.06.12B was released today (June 12th, 2023) and the update required a critical fix for game performance issues found in long term saves. This fix required the game engine (Unity) to need to be updated to the latest version. Because of this, a lot of code had to be updated and re-written. You will likely receive a few more updates over the next few days to fix any problems we find. There is a possibility users may experience some bugs introduced from this update, and we are monitoring all feedback to fix any issues that arise ASAP. If you find anything unusual going on with your game, please feel free to let us know about your issue on the forum. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause players who experience issues, but this fix was critical for smooth and quality long term game play and was not found until after the game's release.

• BUILD 2022.05.18A Save Compatibility - 18 May 2022

  BUILD 2022.05.18A Save Compatibility With the release of BUILD 2022.05.18A, this includes all the changes from the previous opt-in only beta. Due to changes in the data structure, all saved games made on BUILD 2022.04.06A or earlier will not work with the latest update. Any saved games made during the beta should work if you opted into this process over the last few weeks. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, but these changes were necessary to improve the game and add additional features going forward One of the major changes included in today's patch for anyone not previously playing on the beta is the ability to now transfer your game IPs between the various studios you own. So if another studio has an IP you really want, you can now buy that studio and transfer the IP from them to your studio, or buy a studio and prioritize that they work on an IP you have created and tra…
