Improved Building
We've made numerous improvements to the building system, based on watching what you wanted to build, and how you figured things out. The UI's and controls have been completely revamped, and we've added:
- More building categories to make finding things easier.
- New decorative recipes around the world, hidden among chests and secret places.
- Your ship to the main menu, of course!
Build the ship of your dreams - and then let us know what was easy or hard about doing that, so we can further refine the building!
Flux Crafting
Nighttime mechanics continue to be expanded - enemies now drop fluxes, but only at night. In this first area of the game, creatures drop Lunar Flux. Use this in the new Flux Crucible (buildable on your ship) to apply a wide range of powerful upgrades to your weapons and armor.
