Howdy, Exofarmers!

In the words of a certain early 2000's band, it's been a while. After the launch of the Automation Update we've been heads down working hard on the 1.0 release. We're making good progress and are on track to release before the end of the year as planned.While we can't reveal everything yet, we wanted to give you a glimpse of what's coming.
We're starting things off with a bang! Or, rather, a lot of bangs!

Seed Minigun Mod

The Minigun Mod Chip is the latest addition to the Seed Shooter. It significantly ramps up your available firepower, allowing you to plant tons of seeds incredibly quickly.

This Mod will be a big boost to your farming capacity in the late game and is gonna be really helpful for completing the final deliveries. Check it out in action on our TikTok page!You can boost your planting capability even more by upgrading the Minigun targeting radius.
"It's time to let Ol' Painless out of the bag."

Coming up

We'll be revealing more details about 1.0 as we get closer to launch later this year, including:

  • An update to day transitions and weather

  • Map & guidance improvements

  • Mech customization menu overhaul

  • Improvements to deliveries and progression

  • Story & Neighbor endings

  • The final power level of the Mech

  • And more!

What do you want to know about 1.0? Let us know in the comments! P.S. Did you know that the original gatling gun was actually based on the design of a seed planter? We didn't when we made this, but y'all sure let us know about that!
