Starting the New Year with a Big Bang
[h3]For us, 2022 passed by faster than a Graffle on rollerskates![/h3]
We’ve made some great progress since the last update, including adding two visitable planets, three settlements, NPCs, interiors, and a whole bunch of interplanetary space to explore. Armed with the feedback from our wonderful Alpha Backers, we and the QA team have been busy as a bunch of Beefles in nesting season, fixing bugs and rebalancing mechanics to make the game better.

[h2]Getting in the (Outer) Zone [/h2]
Aside from our latest alpha test, our focus has been the Outer Zone. We’ve added a lot of content and three new planets: the frozen Crystalia, waterworld Bluegoonia, and the far less inviting gas giant Nucleon, which is full of new gas sources for curious and courageous chefs to collect.
Despite the cold, Crystalia is teeming with new creatures and new ingredients for you to harvest. Just make sure to wrap up warm and keep an eye out for the gigantic snowbeast that’s rumored to make the planet its home…
We’ve also started work on the water planet of Bluegoonia. Currently, we're having to make do without a dive suit, but we’re planning to fix that and we hope we'll be able to swim around soon.
Finally, we’ve expanded Cyclonia and made it possible for any intrepid chef to wander the scorching desert in their quest for new ingredients. Beware: you won't be the only one on the hunt in this desolate place…
[h2]All that Glimmers[/h2]
Back in space, why not visit Glimmerrock, the oldest mining settlement in the Outer Zone? The sturdy miners here have interstellar-class appetites and surprisingly discerning palettes.
And if you need to improve your slow-faring space scooter, make sure to visit the Glimmerrock Shipyard!
[h2]Shooting for Stars[/h2]
Alongside three new cooking stations - the Stove, the Oven and the Slow Cooker - we’ve also added a quality rating to the dishes you'll be cooking. As you can see in the picture, all food now has a star rating. The quality of food will impact how much payment you’ll receive and what the customers think about your food. And even better (or possibly worse), food will spoil if you wait too long to use it!
[h2]There's No Space Like Home[/h2]
You'll now be able to decorate your base however you like!
Want to remove that hole in the wall? Put it in another wall for some reason?
All your wildest furnishing fantasies are now possible with the new decoration mode.
As if space wasn't treacherous enough, we've now finished work on some space hazards, like the aptly-named Voss Toxic Cloud. We also added Space Ticks, Space Jellyfishes, and moving asteroids, some of which will have valuable assets for you to discover, mine, dodge, and crash into as they whizz around the galaxy.
[h2]Too Many Cooks...?[/h2]
Never!
The cold, uncompromising vacuum of space is much more fun to explore when you’ve got a buddy. Last but not least, you'll be able to enjoy Space Chef with a friend thanks to local split screen multiplayer. Split your chores, support each other on expeditions, or just push your friend’s ship into the sun in the spirit of friendly competition!
[h3]Thanks for reading our update to the very end and coming along this mini cosmic journey with us 🌌[/h3]
We hope you've had a very happy holiday and wish you all the culinary success you desire in 2023!
