A new menu button has been added, it will let you see there are now a total of 30 unique hidden achievements spread across all of the current minigames.

They are hidden until you unlock them!

Cosmetics and making it look nicer are a work in progress!
Also, the menu boop noise has been lowered in volume.
Starcom: Unknown Space - justkevin
Another quick update this week. Just after last week's post I started to feel a bit of a scratchy throat and by Saturday I had my first full-on head cold in years and it was a rough one.

By Wednesday I was starting to feel a bit better and was able to get a patch build out to the opt-in beta branch yesterday. This one mainly adds a number of missing localization symbols for the various translations, plus a few minor bug fixes and tweaks to controller input.

Until next week,
Kevin
