• v0.6.1.17 - Hotfix - 13 July 2026

  Apologies for all the issues people have been having with actions (especially travel actions) not completing properly. For those who've missed my responses on the Discord and Steam forums, the bug only occurred if you were hovering over certain actions when they completed, which is why it wasn't noticed sooner. I believe (but haven't been able to fully confirm) that this was also indirectly responsible for some saves becoming corrupted.If you have a save which still doesn't load properly in this version, you'll need to load an earlier save. If you have any saves made on this version which have any kind of crash, please report it along with an exported save from before the crash occurred, and steps of what you did to cause the crash.BalanceReduced upgraded drill power drain 1.5x => 1.25xGeneralOptimised drain rate calculations for actions with resource drainBugfixesEquipment tab only ena…

• v0.6.1 - Obelisk Rework - 4 July 2026

  SummaryWith the last of the "local" (relatively easily reachable by rover) facilities now in the game, the Laurion obelisk can finally work the way I originally intended. Rather being an early-game challenge which you can burn through in a couple of loops if you know what you're doing, it's now a mid-game challenge which is helped by each other facility. As always, there's also a long list of minor balances, QoL and other changes.Obelisk ReworkDue to the scale of the changes, I've reset progress/completions on all actions within Laurion's mining wing, so all players will need to go back there and redo them. This also affects PDA notes and the start-of-loop water bottle logs, so everyone will get nudged that direction. Since you're no longer expected to have the benefit of having completed the obelisk from the start, a number of journey times have been slightly reduced to compensate.Sand…

• v0.5.1 - Balance Update - 12 March 2026

  SummaryThis update includes several significant balance changes and a lot of small content changes. So let's go over the larger balance highlights first.Food SynthesisersThe food synths have always bugged me. Sure, you'd get better at pressing the buttons by doing it lots, but how/why would you pressing the buttons better make them use less power to create the same amount of food? So they've been given the same treatment as a tram - there's a short action to start it going, then the majority of the time is covered by an event. The event has a fixed time, so it uses a fixed amount of power.This has a few side effects. For starters, you can queue up several (up to 5) portions of food to be synthed, then leave and do other things while it actually gets made. When you come back, all the items are sat there waiting for you to quickly pick them up. It also preserves the balance better, and le…

• v0.5.0.30 - Hotfix - 10 February 2026

  Assuming no new bugs arise from this patch, I'll be starting work on the v0.5.1 minor content update to round out Strabo. It'll aim to balance out Strabo a bit, add in minor content that's been suggested or didn't make it into the initial release, and clear up some of the worst UI irritations. But for now, patch notes!FeaturesOptions:Show loop timer on main screenGroup by "Resources or Area"Pause on item cooldown complete ContentAlt Desc:Exit Through Vehicle Airlock and Cycler Vehicle Airlock with rover in/outsideGet Back on Course after loop 1, before reaching LaurionPark in Central before/after exploringForce Admin Doors with/out power and hackingAlt Logs:Manually cancel charging portal artifactCall tram after seeing it's blocked but not unblocking it in any loopInspect chamber in the hidden area after watching the logsOpen Portal 3-7 timesTake Mid Range Transceiver after exploring ag…

• v0.5.0.27 - 4 February 2026

  NOTE: For some reason the Steam Store has decided to claim that the game is leaving early access today. This is very much not true. It only just entered early access, I don't expect it to be done for at least a year, and I've not set a release date in the store yet. I've message Steam Support about this, and hopefully it'll be resolved soon.ContentNew Log:Lift Lockdown on first 3 loopsAlt Logs:Inspect workstation after its passwordInspect Lost/Crushed rovers after learning something else is thereCross the river towards Santo after reaching Astrape (notice the new route)Remove Life Support Coupler before filters fail and before getting a suitAlt Action: Assemble a large component with toolsAlt Action Name:Navigate Rocky Terrain once you reach the damAlt Action Desc:Inspect Tram Power Supply after removing the artifactInspect Research Lab Door before learning about the artifactDrive to De…
