Update Information

RU-282822.gif

Hello everyone,

Since breaking through the surface of the asteroid our Duplicants have developed a curiosity for the endless cosmos that exists outside their little space rock. That’s right, the Duplicants have begun developing their very own space program!

Soon they’ll be able to build massive rockets, train as astronauts, and journey on missions into space to bring back the resources they find to the colony.

If you're interested, you can help us test this new content on the Rocketry Upgrade testing branch. These features are still being developed so please expect bugs, interface issues, and imperfect balance. We do, however, encourage you to comment on the game as you're currently experiencing it, as we'll be considering your feedback while we further develop the update.

We look forward to reading your thoughts and opinions on the Suggestions Forum.

Thank-you!
