While we're all waiting for the new map...

We decided that we could still put together an update compiled of things that wouldn't take time away from the island development.

Stuff that doesn't require a lot of development resources or that's been mostly finished but postponed in the past.

This way you still get at least something new and fun to mess around with in the meantime.

Because even though the island has been progressing nicely (more teasers coming soon).

It's definitely going to NEED more time in the oven.

Since it's going to be a huge opportunity for the game to catch a second wind in popularity.

We don't want to waste it by rushing things.

So the current plan is to release one or two more updates like this while the first chapter of the new island gets ready.

Hope y'all understand and let's take a look at what this unexpected update brought:

Furniture



There's been a ton of requests over the years to add some cosmetics/furniture for the drillship.

And since these aren't that demanding when it comes to development.

We decided it was a good time to explore this area.

So you can finally cozy up your drillship!

And get that well deserved break with your pals in between stopping volcanoes and whatever else you weirdos do.

We got...

The comfiest armchairs the steampunk era has to offer.



They go really well together with the coffee mug and the new coffee table.

And friends (or so I've heard, I don't have any).



We got phonograph to make the atmosphere just right.

(There are 9 different song tracks scattered around the island for you to find)



Picture frames with art you might already recognize .



We also got a bunch of new tables each with their unique animation that will play from the 3rd person.

They are mostly cosmetic as well.

However, the blue, red, and green ones (production, refinery, research) will generate some boosts for their areas.

For example, if someone is interacting with the refinery table, you will be smelting copper ingots faster.



Wooden Panels



For those who want to completely transform the interior, we added these fancy wooden panels that can be placed on the floor, walls, and even ceilings.



Window Modules



And the cherry on top are these cathedral-like window modules.



Drillship View



Not all features are cosmetic though.

The drillship view is a super handy gadget that will allow you to get a birdseye view of all modules on your drillship.

From the comfort of your own wrist!

At a glance, you can see hp, ammo, energy output, but also do things like closing/opening modules and much more.



Making The Saw Great Again



We can all agree that the saw kinda sucked despite looking cool.

So we decided to do something we should've done from the start.

Which is making the saw deal damage for as long as you hold down the attack button which makes it SO much more effective.



ALSO

There's one more melee weapon included in this update, if you haven't noticed it you might wanna check the trailer again.

Or read this comic which should make more sense now.

Cinematic Ending



The ending sequence was pretty anticlimactic so we gave it a major facelift with a little cinematic that will play before the lore part kicks in.
