- Overwhelmingly Bricky - 23 June 2023
Hello Moonbreakers! It's been an amazing week. It started off with the popular, effusive and miniatures-loving Bricky posting quite a video about Moonbreaker. His enthusiasm is infectious and gave the team a big boost of energy. He called out so many things that we've worked super hard on, but weren't sure anyone noticed. Everything from some wild unit abilities, to our unique art style, to the audio dramas and to the build stability. It also gave us a huge boost of players. All the new traffic led to a lot more reviews, and since the game has gotten so much better, the positive reviews have come flooding in. In fact, yesterday we hit that coveted Overwhelmingly Positive. This all made us, and the community, very happy. This rating may or may not last, but we'll take it. Once you hit numbers like these, Steam will generally promote your game much more. There are hundreds of players onli…
- Upcoming Unit of the Day - Week 2 Roundup - 23 May 2023
Hello Moonbreakers! Charlie Cleveland, Game Director on Moonbreaker (previously of Subnautica) has been sharing some awesome Units of the Day on our Reddit (and we've been cross-posting them in Steam discussions). We're excited to share another roundup of new Units coming to Moonbreaker. To read the full post for each Unit, click "Read More." Captivator Zyanya "Originally called the "Tendril", the seed of the idea here was to have cables or tendrils shooting out from it, lashing onto to all units in range, paralyzing them. For a culture that's all about disrupting, that seemed appropriate. And this was another foray into bigger units, with splashier, more exciting effects." Read more. Zapper Anenqui (Day 8) "I think this one started more with the concept, than with an ability. We thought about some kind of big shock-mace, which emanated a lot of electrical power. That feels like a famil…

Pacifier Ohtli (Day 6) "A lot of the units I've talked about so far took some iteration, some time to get right. But for today's unit, it worked pretty much first try. Introducing, Pacifier Ohtli." Read more. Motivator Atzi (Day 5) "Next up in our upcoming Crew we'll be releasing as part of our upcoming Servants of Yi-Aweti culture. The idea for Motivator Atzi was that it was originally a mining robot, before "awakening" to find a higher purpose." Read more. G.L.I.T.T.E.R. (Day 4) "The idea for this unit was originally to have some game effect "reflected" back at a unit. Ie, if you got…

- Dev Blog: Beasts & Blooms - 24 April 2023
Hey Moonbreakers! We've been hard at work adding new features and new Crew to the game. But now it's finally time to add something else - two new Captains! But first… We like to say that if we're not embarrassed by our first release into Early Access, we waited too long. Some of you might remember that the first version of Subnautica didn't even have… a sub. Seriously, the Cyclops was nowhere to be found. Nor did it have any survival elements. I'll never forget reading words on a Steam review that said "How DARE you release a survival game without eating and drinking?!" At that point, we hadn't even been thinking about the game in terms of survival. But those words just kept ringing in my ears. Players were clearly thinking of the game as a survival game, and they "showed us" that it was. So we added food and water and kept moving forward. That's a long way of saying that even though we…
- Command & Control Hotfix Released! - 6 April 2023

Change Log Big Stuff: Fixed threaded rendering issue with MacOS Captains (including Cargo Run bosses) no longer generate Leadership Fixed various Matchmaking issues: Game would kick you to main menu at 5 min You can now cancel at any time without being stuck on the matchmaking screen Balance changes in the comments below. You can play these changes now on Steam! As always, let us know what you think in our Discord, and continue to make suggestions about how we can improve Moonbreaker. We're always listening! See you in the Reaches, Moonbreaker Team.
- Command & Control Update Released! - 2 March 2023
Jump back into Moonbreaker and discover all of the Reaches-shaking changes that have been made since our last update. Discover additional ways to win – Play with all-new Units, take control with Map Scenarios and Control Points, and customize your Units with a little extra glitz and sparkle in our fourth major Early Access update: Command and Control. Command Your Crew Cinder is no longer the only resource to manage when planning your strategy and Rosters. Leadership is a new resource that is generated by your chosen Captain, and is used to deploy your Crew onto the field. Some Units can generate Cinder, which is used to power abilities. Alternatively, you can now harvest Cinder directly from the environment. You'll need to plan carefully to maximize your use of both resources to lead your Crew to victory. Discover New Paths to Victory Defeating your opponent's Captain is no longer the…
- Moonbreaker 'Experimental' Build is Now Available - 19 January 2023
Hello Moonbreakers, We hope you all had an amazing holiday season and a wonderful New Year! Over the break, we spent a ton of time reading through all of your feedback on Nolt, in our Official Discord, across social media and through responses to our survey.
