One Hour One Life News

People have been asking for some kind of censorship around bad words in speech for a long time. I don't want to censor things globally, and even if I did, it would be a never-ending arms race as people figured out cl evv er ways to bbbb y pass my f il ter s. Since everyone would be seeing the same filters, it would be easy for trolls to test them repeatedly to see what tricks can allow words to slip through.

For those people who are tired of seeing bad words in-game, I'm instead putting the power into your hands. You each have your own personal word filter now, which you can populate as you please. And since no one can see the results of your word filter but you, trolls won't be able to figure out tricks to bypass your personal list.

You can add the word DOG to your list by typing /BLACKLIST DOG into the speech box.

If you do this, SHAGGY DOG will become SHAGGY XXX.

However, HOTDOG will still look like HOTDOG, and DDOGG will still look like DDOGG.

If you want to censor DOG in all its forms, use /BLACKLIST !DOG, with an exclamation mark in front of DOG. Then HOTDOG becomes HOTXXX and DDOGG becomes XXXXX. Also, D O G will become X X X.

If you ever need to clear things out of your list, you'll have to roll up your sleeves and dig into the settings folder. wordBlacklist.ini is the file you will need to edit.

Have a good XXXXXXX evening, folks!

Launch pads must now be built in populated areas, with coordinates discovered from the remote orbital alignment location. This brings rocket-building home, returning it to to community endeavor that it was in the beginning, while still limiting rocket launches to once every five hours.

There have also been many fixes and improvements to the Editor, based on feedback from the Another Planet content team.

All pieces are in place now for the One Hour One Life end game.

You can build a rocket inside OHOL. And coming full circle, you can listen to Tom Bailey's amazing music when you do.

You can ride that rocket to Another Planet, which gives you a Steam Key to let you into the beta test of this exclusive new, unreleased game.

After gaining access to Another Planet, you can specify your own Github account name, and you can also vote for a Content Leader using their Github name.

The Content Leader has full Push access to the AnotherPlanetData Git repository, and the ability to push changes live to the playerbase.

The Export functionality makes it easy for people to collaborate with the Content Leader, submitting sprites, objects, animations, and sounds.

All contributions to Another Planet are tagged with an authorship hash.

When Another Planet is finally released for sale, in February 2026, authorship tracking will be used to divided 60% of the first year's revenue among the players who contributed content to it, based on the portion of the content that each person contributed.

But most importantly... you can now build a rocket. A rocket!

All of the remaining infrastructure for Another Hour Another Planet is in place now.

It is now possible to ride the rocket inside One Hour One Life, leave the planet, and gain access to Another Hour Another Planet via a Steam Key and an off-Steam download link. And once you're playing on Another Planet, it's also now possible for you to specify your GitHub account name, and to vote for the current Content Leader. The current Leader is automatically granted Push access to the anotherPlanet data repository on GitHub, and that access is removed whenever they leave office and are replaced by someone else.

All of this stuff has been tested on my end, and seems to be working. But I need you to help me test it more thoroughly.

Starting on Monday, I will be making surprise VOG appearances in the game, and placing test launch pads for people to use. By triggering these launch pads, they will be able to ride the test rocket, gain access to Another Planet, and help me make sure that all of this infrastructure is actually working correctly.

The last thing to do, for me, is to actually draw the rocket, and flesh out the tech tree changes that will make constructing the rocket possible. Currently, the rocket features place-holder art, and it's currently uncraftable, except by me in VOG mode for testing.
