When we first noticed Dyson Sphere Program, it had just clocked 200,000 copies sold on Steam, capping off an impressive first week on sale in Early Access. Now the Factorio-style building game has topped 350,000 copies sold, and the developers have announced some new features on the way in the next two weeks.

In a message that accompanied a recent set of patch notes, Youthcat Studio says "our development team is busy installing new features and cleaning out the bugs discovered by our beloved players." Many of the features players have requested since the Early Access launch are already on the Dyson Sphere Program roadmap, the studio says, and players can expect a couple of those to show up prior to the beginning of the Lunar New Year.

By February 11, Youthcat says, three new features will be added to Dyson Sphere program. The first is a 'quick-upgrade' system for structures, which will allow you to place more advanced buildings on top of outdated versions, without having to tear down the original structures.

The Steam charts for the previous week make for pleasant viewing if you're looking to try something new. The top two spots in the Steam top sellers list - ranked by revenue, not by unit sales - go to building game Dyson Sphere Program and open-world sandbox game Tale of Immortal. They're both from Chinese development studios and are making a huge splash.

Dyson Sphere Program is a Factorio-like that tasks you with harnessing the power of the stars, collecting resources, and planning and designing production lines so you can develop your small space workshop into a galaxy-wide industrial empire. The indie game entered Early Access on Steam earlier this month following a successful crowdfunding campaign last year. Over the weekend it hit a new, all-time player peak of 59,577.

Tale of Immortal, meanwhile, has been in Early Access for less than a week and has already hit a peak of 124,271 players. It's an open-world sandbox game based on Chinese mythology and cultivation with a lovely art style. I'm sure the gameplay is grand, but I'd happily just sit and look at it. The game is only available in Simplified Chinese right now, though it's available globally.
