For myself (who coded it) and Sarah (who did the art) making Space Trash Scavenger has been quite a journey over the last four years, and I wanted to take the chance to again thank everyone who helped test the game out during development. It has been really appreciated!
Also, a big thank you to everyone who has left us a positive review on Steam. This really makes a big difference to a two person indie team like us. If you want to support us as a developer, please do think about dropping us a review if you like the game.
And if you want to discuss anything, give feedback, or help in the future, consider dropping by our discord.
So what's new in the build? Mainly this update brings more optimisations, some bug fixes and some improvements to balance.
The optimisation is quite significant if you have a large rig with a lot of power sources. In these cases especially, but just generally overall you will have improved performance. There is also a nice fix to enemy AI that was causing Entity to become deactivated and unresponsive after piloting your rig. This is now resolved, so the world may be a little more dangerous out there now! (thanks DocHorrible for your help here!).
I've also balanced the stock goals and targets for a few other quests for smoother progression and perhaps a bit less of a grindy feel at points. Finally, there are several other fixes to labelling, recipes and other misc things.

Al and Sarah
