Dev blog - 7th May 2019
Hey guys, just a quick post to let you know the latest with the game.
The first news is I'm going to be away for a couple of weeks from today so I won't be able to answer any questions via the forum or email until I return on 23rd May. Hopefully other players will be able to pitch in and help any new players to the game. :)
But don't worry, the next update is already well underway. One feature that has been highly requested ever since launch is Steam Workshop.
I'm happy to announce that the next update will include support for this. I'm about half-way through implementing it and I'm looking to release a beta with the new features soon after I return.
This will give a chance for our enthusiastic modders to populate Steam Workshop with new and interesting mods so that when the official release comes there'll be lots of new things to try out.
As part of this I'll also be releasing a basic modders guide to cover the basics of modding the game. You'd be amazed at the sorts of things you can add with just basic text and image editing skills; things that can have significant gameplay impacts.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what people create.
I can also announce that I am in the early stages of working on the next batch of official content for the game.
I can't reveal all the details yet but I thought players would appreciate knowing that something new is in the works.
That's it for now but stay tuned in the coming months for lots more exciting stuff in the world of Megaquarium. ːsteamhappyː
