It's release week! Only 3 more days until the Rift to Galatea 37 will break open and your wait will be over. We hope you are just excited as we are!
Today we are publishing the last pre-release update to The Riftbreaker: Prologue and The Riftbreaker Beta. The Prologue version will continue receiving updates after the full game is released. The Beta version, however, will be deactivated in 3 days. We would like to thank you all for helping us improve The Riftbreaker. Your ideas and feedback changed many things for better. We hope the final product will meet your expectations and that you will stick around to see what the future brings.
See you on the other side! EXOR Studios

If you've been struggling to matchmake when playing on Steam, we've set up a test branch for you to try out.
The 'public_test' branch should give you an improved online experience. We'll be running the test with this branch until October 18th, collecting player feedback along the way.
Please note: At present, this will not allow crossplay with Epic Games.
This is a really valuable test for us, as it allows us to get as many players as possible online to play and matchmake so that we can them implement a patch to the game to fix this issue for everyone!
How do I access this Public Test branch?
You'll need to 'opt in' to play on the test branch.
To do this, right-click the game in your Steam library...
On this menu, click 'Properties'
On this window, go to the 'BETAS' tab and choose 'public_test' from the 'Select beta you would like to opt into' dropdown menu and close the window.
Your game will then update in your Steam library and you should see 'public_test' next to the game name.
Collecting your feedback from this test branch is vital for us so we can look into fixing the matchmaking issue.
If you opt in to play this version and would like to help us by giving feedback and reporting issues etc, please email our team at help@team17support.com
** The public_test branch is now closed **
Thank you to everyone who took part and helped us by providing feedback!
Space Crew: Legendary Edition - Missile Trajectory
Curve Digital and Runner Duck are excited to announce that the intergalactic crew management strategy game, Space Crew, is launching a free Legendary Edition expansion on 21st October 2021.
Armed with a carefully chosen crew and a fully customisable spaceship, plucky captains should prepare for this vast new expansion. The Space Crew: Legendary Edition expansion will include:
A brand-new campaign – Players will take on a droid army led by rogue androids previously allied with the United Defence Force. Battle against a whole host of new Enemy Champions and ships across new missions, with new gear, liveries and upgrades available for victorious Captains to unlock.
Away Team missions – Leave your ship and venture on foot for the first time with three of your crew onto outposts and large vessels in the all-NEW Away Team missions. Selecting the right team will be critical for survival as Away Team missions consist of exploration, puzzles, or combat… sometimes even against the clock!
Legendary Crew members - Build and personalise your ultimate crew by discovering and rescuing legendary crew members with amazing abilities and superior stats, to bolster your efforts against the enemy threat.
To support the impending launch of the expansion, Curve Digital are running a Space Crew 60% off sale from 11th October to 20th October on Steam.
