On August 11, at 10 a.m. PDT, the Microbrewery Tycoon Playtest application will become unavailable.
I ask everyone who still wants to take part in the testing to do so. Those who have already tried to play the test version of the game can, if desired, leave feedback.
We're back from vacation with a new update, and going live with our 1st Steam Sale! Get the game at 15% Off until 1st Aug (10am PST).
This update brings new weapons (proximity mines, sawblades & Bees!) + several visual enhancements.
We've getting close to finishing up the look of the game, and we've upped the NEON feel throughout the game. If your PC is struggeling with the new visual enhancements, you can always turn them off in the options menu.
We've added a new trailer for the game, and next we'll be looking at adding even more weapons and modes to play!
Keep a lookout on our Twitter or Discord for news on development!

Welcome to another update. This time, work was done on the wires. Wires now have a limited distance. A new item has also been added - Wire Extension! A new item allows you to make a network of wires on your ship! To create a new item, you first need to learn its recipe in shipcore.
I also added the deformation of the wreckage of the ships when hit with a pickaxe. Over time I will improve this effect.
A new recipe has been added to the Recycler: Scrap-metal and Rubber - obtained from Wire.
A very annoying bug has been fixed: If you switch the active item in the inventory, the item in the hands disappeared.
We also take part in the Survival Game Festival (August 1st), so don't miss this event and tell your friends!

Work has been done on the entire wire system, many small bugs related to wires should be fixed.
