Quality of Life Update & Treasure Hunt!

Hello Terraformers!

We have three exciting news for you today !

[h2]Quality of life update[/h2]

There's been some improvements that we could not ship in the last update, so we are releasing a small quality of life update.

By popular demand, you will now be able to trade cookies in space, and automate most of the food recipes.

You'll enjoy a new chip allowing you to pin blueprint recipes to your HUD.

Additionally, it's now possible to upgrade your equipment without unequipping it.




[h2]Surprise & Treasure Hunt[/h2]

As we previously stated, we will make a big announcement in the coming days.
But before that, we wanted to tease you one more time, giving you the chance to discover the reveal before we officially announce it.

So we decided to create a treasure hunt within the game! So, for a limited time, before the announcement, you can try to uncover this secret.

You'll find more information on this Steam forum!



Will you be able to crack the code before the official announcement?




Happy terraforming!
