All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey,

After a slight hiatus in a form of life in general here is finally the next bigger update with new features and a new level. Hope you enjoy it.

If you got suggestions for the next version name, let us know. If it's silly, it might end up to be used ;-)

Here are some highlights of this release:

Adventure continues! Enter the dark Caves of CMOS.


Cyberscapeologists have completely new functionality after certain new technologies available:
Enter fog of war...


Fight back, with a whip of course!


Ignite torches to reveal FoW!


Build museums!


And bring back ancient relics of unknown origins!


No probe available underground so it's permantenly dark and your cyberscapeologists with their new abilities can help you.

FAQ


How often do you intend to update the Early Access version?
Depends a bit of what kind of update we're cooking up, but we're hoping big updates such as new levels and features would not be around 4 to 6 weeks. However since our team is small, we cannot guarantee this. What we can promise is to do our best.

Does the game work on OSX?
Absolutely!

And Linux?
Oh yes!

Consoles? Mobile?
Nope. Maybe in the future consoles might be interesting.

I found a bug or I got suggestions!
We're sure you do, and we're asking you to let us know in our über-elite bug tracker and forum thing at forums

What about multiplayer?
We'd love to do a co-op multiplayer, but it's not really viable right now. Help us out by getting some wind under our wings and it becomes more realistic :)
