Engineer Alpha's Log #75: New Year, New Focus

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

I hope you all had a good holiday and new year's, somehow we made it into 2024.

Last year I made a road map with all of the planned releases for the year and while that went ok I am not planning to do something that far looking at this time. I do have many plans for what updates are going to be I am just not ready to share them yet. The final release on the roadmap Version 0.7 was planned for release back in December unfortunately that did not happen. Given how late 0.6 was you probably could have guessed. The plan is to release the development version on the 16th and I will have a video on more of what is coming in that patch on Monday or Tuesday of next week.

As for what is going to happen for the rest of the year the current plan for now is to focus on improving what the game already has as well as focusing on media presence and sales. The hard truth is I can't keep going forever as I am so its time to try something new. I will of course still be fixing any bugs and adding features that are needed so if there is anything that you want fixed or changed please say so either here on Steam or Discord.

You will have both generators and consumers and they will be connected together in a network. The current plan is that there will be several sizes o…Community25 Apr 2024Engineer Alpha's Log #83: Making Things Unlocked EarlierIn the last update to Engineer Alpha I moved around both Magnetubes and Cranes in the tech tree to make them reachable earlier. I did this for several reasons but will go into each individually. Conveyors have been causing me a fair bit of lag in my personal playing of Engineer Alpha. Of course buildings/objects that are inefficient are always going to be looked at to be improved. When it comes…Community4 Apr 2024Engineer Alpha's Log #82: Those Mining Drills, They SUCK!The most important part of any plan is knowing when to throw out the plan. The small and large mining drill that you unlock in the copper or iron tier respectively are intended to be a good source of resources throughout the early game. While they where never intended to completely replace hand mining at their point in the game they should make it start to feel like you need to do less and less…
