Work in progress, but initial footprint is there, we're going to bake it out further
Tutorial
Intro/tutorial (as you can see below, we're getting there, probably need another day to wrap it)
Multiplayer
It already exists, you just can't access it. One refunded player accused us of false advertising on this specific issue, many others accused us of general false advertising but what's in my game is visible in the trailer video on the page. This has been repeatedly told to folks both in audio and digital to ensure we've had time to go back and QA it. It worked 70% of normal flow back in 2021/2022, but with all the updates to the game we don't know how it'll react right now.
UI Overhaul
We've been working on our UI overhaul, we wanted something more uniform for a long time, which is why the playtest and (playtest) main game early access cut over still have the old broken UI. This, is the first thing players will see when loading the demo map we have currently loaded for EA. If for some fluke reason it doesn't load on start, hit G, then click the tutorial button. Also we have mouse sensitivity (need to QA it before release)
Quick early preview of the intro flow toward the workstation. I'll need a couple hours to record some audio....after i sleep.
These fixes coming very soon, should address 80-90% of refunds and voiced critiques from our players in our discord, which is still locked for security reasons. The other 20-10% we're investigating.

Thermals early prototype video preview (with visible steam/smoke enabled)
We look forward to seeing everyone enjoy our game, and if it's not your cup of tea then we hope you get your hard earned money back. We're not here to take your money, we are here showing you how it's worth it short and long term.
quick note, We're held back overnight since i overslept today (phone died/alarms didn't go off) and we'll be pushing the update out probably tomorrow.
