We had a couple of reports the storage box broke on the Mars tutorial -so we are fixing that.
Upcoming patch...
Tutorial storage case empty.. whaaaaa?
Factories added to public so you can still research things.
Current Fixes_______
Stunner for 'pests' hiding at the top of a tower on shared public.
There is a fix for the bug that "Kale doesn't trigger achievement" on the Lagoon, so you don't get earth-stuck for too long.
Fixed a bug where you would not spawn and had no hands and feet on the beach - this occurred while we updated all the connection code to make it better - it stunk, but the new connection code is manufacturer-suggested (exit games - "photon" is what we use) and the new fix is holding and looks 100% so far (after the weekend) - good job Xefier and Khal

Ouch - we had some very bad bugs on the weekend as we tried to fix the multiplayer join, but we hope you can hang on a little longer so we can get those fixes in.
The sales have been good, and they really help us fix bugs.
While the developers watered the cats and turned off the lights, a bad bad bug slithered into the build that stopped new players from continuing.
While I watch some of the new players groan and grovel on the sand on the lagoon, unable to move or launch their spacecraft, something else happened:
a miracle ! The game started selling well all over the world.
For those 9 players who got stuck in the mud while we tested a build I am really sorry, please come back and try again.
To all of you loyal supporters - well keep on keeping on; we've launched a contest to show our support as as soon as we collect another 90K or so in sales (to be very blunt), we'll be able to send one of you to astronaut training down in Florida. When we do about 10 times as much we can send one of you up up and away.. (must be 18 ;) probably a couple of years from now.
The details to win are coming, and yes, it involves playing the game - of course.

_Hopefully_ this is done this morning for an upload later today.
New players need to be able to get into space with no problems (just the game ones), so there's a timer on the "HATCH" on the island, and there's also full testing going on today, before we push the new build.
I saw someone get stuck, so we'll just have to wait there until the full on upgrade. - Xefier is coming in to do a special before going home to sleep.
TTYS.
Please note - if you want to see the new features, jump from map to map on an established character in the "internal" branch.
