Update 0.3: Play with time!

Sand in a Box · published 31 Aug 2024, 18:54 UTC · build 15555641

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

This is the first content update for Sand in a Box. We're introducing new ways to control the simulation:

Control the speed of the simulation:

  • Pause and draw in a world without the pressure of flowing time.
  • Run the simulation at different speeds: normal, 2x, and as fast as your CPU can handle.

Rewind Time:

  • Press the rewind button to go back in time!
  • Experiment freely, now you can undo everything.

Improvements to the simulation:

  • Plutonium can now melt.
  • Plutonium can become critical at very high temperatures.
  • Fixed bug that did not draw some pixels of Plant (and other particles with 'absorb' property)

Please note: The rewind feature significantly reduces performance and requires additional RAM. You can disable it in settings.
