  As the playtest is coming to a close in aproximately a day and a half it would be amazing to gather as much info as possible on this new version. Since I wanted to ship this fast in time for the playtest I didn't test a lot of the systems in depth myself, so it's possible some things might be broken, sorry about that. If it's something gamebreaking I'll do a quick hotfix. Loading The planet renderer now warms up while you sit in the menu. After a few seconds of menu time, New Game and Continue skip most of their longest loading stage (measured: up to 65% and 81% faster). Clicking immediately still works exactly as before.

• 9.8 Playtest v0.6.9 — Open Playtest - 22 July 2026

  The playtest is now open. Welcome! Quick in-game surveys will occasionally ask what you think. Two clicks, optional, and they help a lot.

Hold to quickload, so a stray keypress cannot wipe your moment. VAB and flight control polish, fairing staging improvements. If something breaks Game frozen or stuck loading?

Linux: if it will not start, send us launch.log from the game folder. Have fun, break things, tell us everything.

• 9.8 Playtest v0.6.8 - 22 July 2026

  Stability and startup release. Content update coming later today. Startup and platforms Linux on Steam is fixed. If it still fails, the game now writes a launch.log you can send us. First macOS build on Steam (Intel + Apple Silicon). Report anything weird. Hybrid laptops: the game now runs on your real GPU instead of the power-saving one. This fixes single-digit FPS everywhere, even in the menu. First launch may flicker once. Graphics Auto graphics now recognizes your GPU and picks the right tier for a solid framerate. Only applies if your setting is on Auto. If your FPS was bad out of the box, try Auto. Faster base scene rendering. Fixes Undocking properly releases parts attached across docking faces, and undock is now a stage action. Discord Rich Presence. VAB mirror placement and onboarding tooltip fixes. Fixed the AX-5 Wisp engine description not loading. If the game freezes or will…
