After six years of hard work and commitment, what began as a simple rocket simulator has become a sophisticated aerospace sandbox in which you can bring to life anything you can imagine - from rockets, airplanes, and cars to entire planets. Over time, the more we added, the more SimpleRockets 2 outgrew its name. With much consideration we have decided to change the name to "Juno: New Origins" - a title that symbolizes a new start.



We are excited to launch version 1.0 later this month and this will be the game's official exit from Early Access on Steam. Version 1.0 will include the Career Mode update, which will be the largest update yet. We have been working on this update for over a year and we are extremely excited to share it with all of you. It is currently available for beta testing on Steam and if you want to try it out you can find instructions at the bottom of this post. We are working as hard as possible to get this update out on all platforms, but it is possible the mobile release will be delayed until next month.

There will be a small update rolling out very soon to change the name. Do not worry if you have already bought SimpleRockets 2, because you will automatically own Juno: New Origins. This is a name switch and you will receive this update at no cost, as well as the Career Mode update later this month. Furthermore, all your projects and sandboxes will still be where you left them the first time you launch Juno: New Origins.

Thank you for playing!

Of course, the game will release somewhat later than you expected, but our team needs the time to finish the game without compromising its quality. We are sure you also share our wish for “Horny Warp” to release at its best, and that's why we believe you will understand our decision. To make everyone happy, however, we have prepared a surprise!

We have updated the demo for “Horny Warp”. You will get one more minigame and the first H-scene with priestess Lilyan. This will help you get a better feel for the game and pass the time until its full release.
We have also prepared the Mac OS build! Now every owner of Mac OS devices will be able to play the “Horny Warp” demo. The final version of the game will also be compatible with Mac OS.



And there's even more good news!
Lately, “Horny Warp” has received an enormous amount of support and attention. This greatly inspired our team, and we have plans to support the game for a long time to come.
We are going to add one H-scene and one side story for every girl! We won't give any details before the release of the main build, though. Our first priority is releasing “Horny Warp,” and the additional content comes second.

Hi humans!
Happy new year! ːcathspawː

Let's start 2023 with a present for you: A Building Full of Cats original soundtrack is coming!
Back in June 2022, we did not had the resources to make an original soundtrack, so we used stock music, carefully looking for the best feat on each floor. After the game's success, we hired a musician to make a new soundtrack. We've asked for a new ost with the same vibe on each floor, so don't expect any drastic changes.

This update will be free. And don't worry, you'll still be able to choose the current soundtrack in the options. ːwinkycatː
The new OST is coming soon.

• Italian Language is now available
  
• The game now detects your language the first time you play it
  
• Minor bug fixes

In other news, A Building Full of Cats is now available on the Nintendo Switch. ːwrycatː

A Tower Full of cats was announced in December, but just in case you didn't see it, here it is:

We want to make every game in the series with its own identity and gameplay tweaks.
We won't talk too much about this game yet, but you can expect something different from the Building and the Castle.
What we can say for now is that there won't be sad achievements or timed room this time.

Don't forget to Wishlist and Follow the game!

Hope you guys have a pawsome 2023 and adopt a cat! ːfofino2ː

Hello everyone
I wanted to let you know that I will be releasing nightly build updates to steam for The Great Circle demo. These updates include a variety of changes and improvements to the game. I understand that it can be hard to keep track of all the changes so I will do my best to include patch notes for each update on steam. There's usually anywhere from 50-200 changes so I will do my best to summarize the most relevant parts in an easy-to-read format for you. Thank you for your support for being a valued member of TGC's community! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the updates!
TJ
Developer

• Added choosing player as leader behavior
