Dev Diary 7#


Dear Earthlings,

I am alive and well. I had a splendid Christmas and new year celebrations. I hope you all had the same. Just posting a small update blog because I believe it is already a long time ago when I gave an update.

I've been busy implementing the crafting system. It takes a bit longer than I had anticipated. Nonetheless, the end results look very promising. I'm also creating a huge Codex with information about all the objects in the game. It is really time-consuming, but I believe it's necessary to guide new players around the game. I had a lot of feedback (Thanks you all for that) about the fact that the game has a steep learning curve and at times, it's not clear at all what to do. The Codex will have all your answers!

Here just one example:


The Codex will be available on different websites as well as in the game itself.

The feedback you guys give me with the Steam Play-test build helps me tremendously. For that, I want to thank you.

Also, if not already, please link yourself up to all social media platforms to stay up-to-date.

That's that!

If you guys have any other questions, i'd love to answer them.
Stay good, stay fresh and stay healthy!

Cheers,
Bryan

Quick announcement

Today is the big day! Tonight Out Of Orbit Public Beta will be launched. I just want to make a quick announcement before that happens!

Make sure you send all the bugs you encounter via de designated forms or send a mail to [email protected]

I'm just one guy making a game and while I did test the game on multiple systems, I need to test the game on many more. I promise I will fix all the baby bugs within the first week.

That's all!

The first major bug fix update will probably happen on Sunday.

Have fun playing everyone and test test test!

Cheers,
Bryan
