I am thrilled to announce that Settlements Rising has officially left Early Access and is now available as a full release! This marks a major milestone for the game, and I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you who supported the game throughout the Early Access journey.
What Does Full Release Mean?
While the game has now reached v1.0.0, this does not mean that updates are coming to an end. The Early Access roadmap has been successfully completed, bringing all the planned features to life. However, development will continue. Moving forward, updates will primarily focus on bug fixes, balance improvements, and quality of life enhancements to ensure the best possible experience for you.
What About New Content?
Although future updates will prioritize stability and refinements, new content may still be added from time to time. The frequency of such updates will slow down compared to the Early Access period.
Your Feedback Matters
I encourage you to continue sharing your bug reports and feedback, as they are valuable to me. Every piece of feedback is read with care, and many of the UI tools and features you see in the game today were inspired by player suggestions. Your input has shaped Settlements Rising into what it is today, and I hope you'll continue to be part of its journey.
Developing this game as a solo developer has been a time-consuming process that required many sacrifices from my social life. However, seeing the game being appreciated and receiving your feedback has made it all worthwhile.
Thank you once again for being an essential part of the community. Enjoy the full release, and happy building!
