Hello Cosmorists! It's been almost a full year since I last talked about what I was working on. That's on me. Side tangents Lack of action I worked on the game so infrequently lately that in some ways, I feel out of touch. Working on the same game for multiple years (since at least 2022), and having no clue what the game should be like aside from being a survival-crafting game and updating base…
This build is v 0.2 in progress with the in-progress features and hidden content disabled, and there may be more changes than listed. Items · Reduced the defense stat of most shields, and changed their durabilities. · Increased damage on the Copper Sword and Tin Arrow. Bug fixes · Fixed bug where breaking a furnace, stove, or other machine doesn't drop all their items. · Fixed bug where sorting…
Hello Cosmorists! No updates were released this month, but the game's soundtrack has been fully uploaded to the channel, and some progress was made! Crafting manual Due to the lack of information in the early game relating to crafting recipes, a crafting manual will be in the next update, allowing players to see all the crafting recipes in the game, and unobtained items are blacked out! Sunset…
Hello Cosmorists! This was the month of v 0.1.5, or the On the Defensive update, alongside some other changes! Cosmorists OST Although I haven't been uploading the game's soundtrack every day lately, as doing the same thing with different tracks can get rather repetitive, I'm almost done with uploading the game's soundtrack. It's expected that the remainder of the tracks will be uploaded on the…
Another month has passed since the last update, this time, the update brings a sense of defense to the game alongside other content! Shields! · An update with "defensive" in the name certainly has something to do with defense. Introducing shields! With this update also come new inventory slots dedicated to shields. The number on the top left is a new stat: Armor! It determines how much damage i…
Hello Cosmorists! This is the month where the map was finally implemented into the game! There were a few bugs that I caught with it, such as the map UI unexpectedly crashing the game in rare instances. Uploading the game's OST Although this isn't as related to the game itself, I've decided to upload the game's soundtrack to my YouTube channel after a long time without any videos, with one trac…
Crash fixes · Fixed crash where dragging the map around can sometimes crash the game. Bug fixes · Fixed bug where saving the game in caves often have temperatures, ambient sounds, and/or music attached to the same position on the surface. Miscellaneous · Modified the spawn frequency of all enemies in the lava caves, where spawn frequency is now mostly temperature dependent.
It's been quite a while since the last update, and this is one that finally adds maps to the game, a feature common in other games like this one! It's a mostly minor update for anything not related to maps. Revealing maps! A greater sense of mystery has been added to the boundaries of your exploration after the spaceship is repaired! Note: Existing saves will automatically have the map unlocked…
Hello Cosmorists! I've largely been busy outside of game development lately, causing the relative lack of updates. Progress however is still being made, especially within maps! Increasing political activity as of late · I won't go deep into current events, especially since this is about progress for my game. Just wanted to give a heads up to the recent slowdown. If you live in the US like I do,…
Bug fixes · Fixed critical bug for new saves where landing on another world changes the world size to Medium once saved. Existing saves however still retain their medium world sizes, even if the world size was small or large on creation.
Hello Cosmorists! This month brought another biome-based update for the desert caves! Some progress was made on adding maps, but I still have a ways to go before it's implemented into the game Unexpected saving bugs As I playtested the game myself, some more bugs relating to saving the game were still present, which led to v 0.1.2.2 and 0.1.2.3, and that postponed my attempt to add a map into t…
Hello Cosmorists! This is another biome-based update, but with a focus on the now previously lacking desert cave biome! It's a sort of antithesis update with the taiga caves, focusing on a hot biome instead of a cold one! Overhauled desert caves In the hot depths of the desert cave biome, some new content awaits exploration! There's a new hazard to look out here, as any cosmorist can step on so…
Bug fixes · Fixed bug where the spaceship sometimes doesn't save when on another world. · Fixed bug where the player's max health is set to the player's current health at the time of saving. Affected saves will reset the max health value to 120 if it's less than that. · Fixed bug where furnaces, machines, and certain storage containers become 1x1 inventory slots when empty upon saving. · Fixed…
Another saving bug was found! For the same reason why spaceship data wasn't saved in v 0.1.2, so was tech tree data in v 0.1.2.1! Bug fixes · Fixed critical bug where tech tree data isn't saved.
A slow month Sometime after the Verdant update, I was getting a little tired from working on the game after a period of creative highs focusing on one biome for a week. By the start of the month, I started to feel some burn out from game development after working on it almost every day for so long, so I took a roughly 2 week long break early this month, only checking the community for any bug r…
Critical bug fix! · Fixed critical bug where spaceship data is deleted from the save file for new and existing saves after saving the game. A compromise on affected saves If you've tried out the update in v 0.1.2, and saved the game, all spaceship data has been deleted, and when loading the game again, the spaceship is gone, stranding players on the same world. If the game is still on v 0.1.2,…
Hello Cosmorists! This is an update similar to the Verdant update, but focuses on the taiga cave biome instead, which previously lacked content compared to other similar cave biomes! You might want to visit the taiga biome on Tierra, and visit their caves to experience the new content! Overhauled Taiga caves In the taiga cave biome, a lot more new and exclusive content awaits, as well as a fres…
Bug fixes · Fixed bug where unplugged power icons can sometimes linger over iron drills that were removed. Crash fixes · Fixed crash where placing an iron drill, mining it, saving, and returning can crash when returning to the cave layer and place where the drill was removed.
Another small patch for another crash report :) Bug fixes · Fixed bug where launching from Aquatica still shows the water overlay texture mid-launch. · Fixed bug where the compass UI is still shown when in the spaceship while holding a bronze compass. Crash fixes · Fixed crash where saves containing electric drills can sometimes crash.
Hello Cosmorists! 2025 started off with the Narrow Echoes update with many changes! Following that was a more focused Verdant update that added a new cave biome a little over a week later! Let's get into the devlog! Although Narrow Echoes was a fairly large update, the update was mostly all over the place in terms of what the game added or changed. Things such as graphical changes, quality of l…

Hello Cosmorists! The first major update of 2025 is here, kicking off the perfect square year with the Narrow Echoes update! Let's get to what's been added! Swaying trees Is the world feeling a bit static? It will now feel less so with the trees now reacting to the wind, which will occasionally drop their leaves, and those leaves will also blow in the wind! Check out those new tree animations :…
Hello Cosmorists! 2024. What a year this was for the game! This year had a lot going for it looking back, such as the addition of automation prior to the launch, the early access launch trailer, the early access launch that opened up the game to the public, and for this month, another trailer for the new update! 2025 is now on the horizon, and I'm eager to see what this next year has to offer f…
Hello Cosmorists! It's been a while since the last content update, but now it's here! It will be mostly Christmas themed, and adds a new enemy in the ice caves!

Christmas content Some new Christmas-themed decorations were added in this update, a…
Hello Cosmorists! The progress I made this month still held steady! Let's get into the new content and features that was added this month :) Steam achievements As you may have noticed, the game now has achievements, with one named "Achievement test".
