  • Added experimental gauge animation option.

  • Made corrections to reactor core calculations when there is a dangerous combination of water and steam.

  • Fixed bug where the location of the Condenser Charge Pumps and Outer Reactor Vessel could not be assigned.

  • Added a new animation to AO to indicate that he is busy doing some work.

  • Fixed the visual error of the main valve panel, where the condenser was not visible correctly.

The following fixes have been made:

  • Fixed the visual error when trying to activate the tablet while entering a value on the virtual numeric keyboard.

  • Fixed issue with purchased items not showing as reserved on the map when delivered and under construction.

  • Changed the available upgrade validation to show the cost even if it is not available.

  • Fixed bug with saving progress, where in certain circumstances, it would not correctly save upgrades for some machines.


The following improvements have been made:

I had planned not to introduce changes or improvements until all the bugs were fixed and the game stabilized, but I'm seeing that there's a lot of confusion with the reactor shutdown protocol, and a lot of complications to understand what's going on.

For this reason, I added a new function in AO, in the request for help section, so that AO can analyze the situation of the reactor, in relation to the shutdown, and report the status: normal and safe cooling speed, slow cooling or possibly impossible cooling, and an explanation of the factors that, if they do not change, produce that situation.

  • Added keypad support for value input.

  • Added pressure release valve to pressurizer relief container.

  • Fixed the error in the emergency lights that did not turn on in the service corridors.

  • Adjusted mouse movement smoothing when rotating camera.

  • Adjusted focus speed when positioning player in front of a controller.

  • Fixed bug where batteries could not be picked up from the ground after loading progress.

  • Fixes to improve the stability of the maintenance process when accelerated time is active.

  • Fixed a bug when assigning the location of the circulation pumps, which allowed selecting an invalid space.

End of early access

As a solo developer, I have successfully achieved the first complete and playable version of the game. It has been a long and arduous journey of three years, marked by countless hours of hard work, unimaginable changes, and continuous revisions, right up until yesterday. It gives me great pleasure to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who has helped me in any way throughout this journey: grimmer87, Raven_Nightingale, Powergeamer1, Zbuntowany Kaloryfer, Stress, Ali, InternetINk, Krut888, ZOP, Nomad, Jeff - PlazSoft, Bryan Delahaye, Kory Rinehart, Creepy Cat and many, many more!

The decision to close early access has been an important one, as it provides a clear path for the game's future growth. While the game is considered "finished," there is still much more to be done in terms of expansion, additions, and improvements. Undoubtedly, the game could have been executed to a higher standard, but as it stands, it is the first of its kind, featuring a 3D, first-person nuclear reactor simulator that balance between complexity and gameplay.

I am proud of what I have achieved so far, and I look forward to continuing to build on this foundation. While there is still much work to be done, I am confident that with time and effort, I can take this game to new heights, and create an even more immersive and engaging experience for players.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement, it means the world to me.

Thank you so much!
