Anniversary special event ending

Hello terraformers!

We reached the end of the anniversary temporary event.
Thanks to everyone who participate in the small celebration for the one year of Planet Crafter!

We hope you liked baking some pastries and cakes in the little special bunker!

You will keep all the items you crafted during the event, but the bunker won't be accessible anymore. Due to the popularity of the baking station, there's high chances it will come back in the game in the future, but it's not clear how exactly yet.

After a year of Early Access, Miju Games as a company needs to take some time to ensure it is properly structured. So we are aiming at this summer for the next update but we won't promise any specific date. We already have great ideas for it!

Happy terraforming!
