- 🚀 MAJOR UPDATE is live! 💥 - 30 April 2025
Space Architects, it’s time to return to your bases — a huge new update just dropped… and we’ve got a 60% discount to celebrate! 🎉 This update brings a ton of improvements based directly on your feedback. Here’s what’s new: 🧊 Temperature overhaul Instead of one shared station temp, every grid cell now has its own. That means hotspots are real — and devices can overheat and go offline until they cool down. Time to get clever with your layouts! ❄️ Cooling pipes + Active Cooler Manage heat like a pro using new cooling pipes and the powerful Active Cooler (it can chill to -50°C). Whether you’re fighting hotspots or cooking up some spicy room-based systems, this one’s for you. 🔧 Pipe-laying system rework You asked, we listened. Laying down pipes is now way smoother — just pick start and end, and let the system do the rest. Of course, the old method is still there for fine-tuning. 💾 Faste…
- 1.1.2 Beta - 19 April 2025
Hi, "This is one small patch for a game, one giant change for gaming-kind." Or so one of the crewmates said Anyway, here are today's patch changes: Change: Transport pipes speed increased x2 20+ new background tracks Change: add temperature info to tooltip Prevent metal spawning by the storage metal-not-allowed loophole Fixes for French translations - thanks to Yalemon Added a tooltip about using Shift when building to build multiple Changed translation for a button to build a copy of a device Attempt at solving a bug: game lag after a long pause can cause the crew to die
- 1.1.1 Beta Polish - 6 April 2025
Hi This is a quick one - a few tweaks for 1.1 Open Beta in form of v1.1.1 Storage - repositioned visual representation of filtered item All devices can have custom names (it was meant to be used for Storage, so I don't guarantee it'll look good for other device types) Storage fill bar updated continuously (instead of in 5 steps) Pipes overlay - polished switching between actions Ability to connect neighbouring pipe nodes from pipe building interaction Custom name will be displayed over the device And can be set by pressing pencil in the Device panel
- 1.1 Beta is Live - 2 April 2025
Hi there! After all these months (3 to be exact), I'm proud to present to you the Open Beta release of v1.1 To participate, go to Space Architect properties, and under Beta, choose 1.1_beta_ - 1.1 Open Beta But be warned, this version may contain an above average amount of bugs! Warned you was, now, what's new in 1.1 Beta Redone temperature system Instead of the station having a single temperature, each grid cell will have its own, thus allowing for hotspots to appear in mid to late game. This will make overheating devices more common. Cooling pipes Introduced as a way to combat hotspots and possibly do other shenanigans (like making hot rooms?). Also, cooling lines need a place to transfer heat to, so an Active Cooler was added to the game, with the ability to reach chilly -50C (wear warm gloves when operating). Refreshed pipe laying The most common negative feedback was about the pipe…
- Still Alive - 1.1 Beta coming soon - 8 March 2025
Hi All, The game is still being worked on, no worries :) v1.1 is almost ready, and while I'm planning to release it at the beginning of May, before that I'd like to get some feedback from You. Soo... in a day or two v1.1 will be available as a public beta, if you're not scared of a few bugs here and there - I'd like to invite you to participate :) What will be there you ask? Redone temperature system Instead of the station having a single temperature, each grid cell will have its own, thus allowing for hotspots to appear in mid to late game. This will make overheating devices more common. Some devices/interactions might be added during beta, like ice melting in hot rooms cooling it a bit down, or crew sweating/shivering giving them debuffs. Cooling pipes Introduced as a way to combat hotspots, and possibly do other shenanigans (like making hot rooms?) Refreshed pipe laying The most comm…

Hi All! With this update, you will be able to (finally) demolish those pesky Modules and Trusses, and remodel the station to your changing needs :) Module/Truss deconstruction Added shortcut (H) to center camera on the station Dropped items got updated sprites (temporary ones) Dropped items piles near each other merge into one (up to a limit) Dropped items that won't merge will change position if on top of other dropped items Pointer in scrap removal quest now hides when it should After Storage filters change, if not-allowed items can't be exported due to limited space, they still can be used for other jobs Defense towers - allow to put the same amount of ammo via pipes vs via crew Storage filter export is more robust Added crewmate names proposed by players Added translations for Zoom In and Zoom Out shortcuts fixes to French translations - user suggested - thanks!

- v1.0.5 - 2 December 2024
Hi there! Today, while whacking at a game code I've found a major bug that might have caused jobs to break if a device related to it was being deconstructed -.- My bad, but it should work fine now :) Change - Device Out Pipe - randomize item to be outputted Major bug in import/export trader solved - when a job was removed due to a deconstructed device - it wasn't removed from ResourceTrader so a new job wasn't generated Bug solved - correctly load unsigned trade prevent deconstruction of a guest dock with locked trade and last storage device Added notification when there are a lot of dropped items prevent shortcut activation if a button is not interactable update default keymap for 0.1 speed to BackQuote clean folder before saving (less mess) requester is built inside (as stated in the build description) Clearer Pump placement requirements
- (Nom)ination Idea - 29 November 2024
Oh hello there :) There is this thing about Nominating for Steam Awards... and to be honest, I'm not sure how exactly it works, but I have a plan :D Looking at the game I've made, and how much of a struggle it causes for new players I thought it would be funny if Space Architect gets nominated in the 'Best Game You Suck At Award' category So, if you too agree that this game requires some brainpower to understand, and even more to master, please help :D Thanks, Albert, Space Architect dev
