Major update25 Jun 2026Update 0.17: “Quests & Counters” is Available Right Now!A big new update is live on Steam right now!

The Beta is live right now! Precise instructions on how to join it appear later in this blog. The main content addition is the Oddity Press . It’s an automated crafter, like the Mill. The Mill makes essential items for the start of the game, and the Oddity Press does the opposite - most of its items utterly lack functionality, and are purely meant for decorative purposes.

If Steam doesn’t update automatically, try verifying the integrity of the game cache. In the previous versions of the game, the world was either directly lit or indirectly lit. Direct lighting occurs when the sun hits an area, all the rest is shadow. There w…
Update 0.11 is now available on Steam! The most visible change is a total replacement of all the colonist models. In the past, we only had one colonist model. It used UV-mapped textures, and they were difficult to change for us. The only thing that varied between colonists was the color of their shirts. The new vertex coloured model is much easier to adjust for us, and the differences between c…
