| Unstable Beta 2 Is Now Available! | 2026-04-24 | Hello, mercenaries! Today we are updating the Quasimorph beta branch. This update includes several major systems and notable changes: the Pact Department for the Magnum, a reworked trade shuttle, the new RealWare storyline, updates to fire, liquids, and gases, as well as a batch of fixes. Important: Unstable Beta requires another wipe within the beta branch. We said last time that we would try to avoid it, but due to the scale of these changes, old beta saves will not be compatible with the new version. One more reminder: the beta is called “Unstable” for a reason. Bugs, conflicts, and strange incidents of a corporate-demonic nature may occur |

| DEVLOG 012: Future is near | 2025-02-11 | Hey, folks! Today, we’d like to share our plans for the near future: changes to how the beta works, upcoming game updates, and preparations for version 1.0, which we plan to release this year. Changes to the Beta-testing We've decided to take a more structured approach to delivering new versions and managing the beta branch: 1. Every month, we’ll update the beta branch to experiment, make intensive changes, and gather feedback. 2. Every three months, we’ll prepare a major patch that consolidates our experiments. This approach remains mostly unchanged—we're still aiming for one big patch per quarter—but we want to start collecting feedback ear |
