v1.2.0 - Minor Update


This is not Part B of v1.2.0. Instead, we have a little update that provides a little bit of content and new thumbnail art.

What's new:

  • New resources: Aluminum and Platinum.
    • Several machines have had their recipes changed to have aluminum as a component.
    • Platinum is currently used in the Ticket Booth (see below) but will have more uses later on.
    • Aluminum is about as common as titanium, while platinum can only be found on Crystalline planet types.
  • New Greenhouse functionality;
    • You can now grow more than one type of plant in the Greenhouse!
    • By placing a Seed Packet (bought from the Earth Shop) into the Greenhouse, you can grow various plants.
    • 1/20th of a Seed Packet is consumed when making 1 unit of the given crop.
    • Currently, there's only one new plant type: Bamboo. It can be used to make paper for the Ticket Booth (see below).
    • More plant types coming soon!
  • Several machines;
    • Ultra (Mega) Drill: Unlocked with research, this is a super-powered laser-mining behemoth that can dig up resources faster than you can say "lickety-split!" Take caution, however, as it uses lots of electricity.
    • Advanced Battery: Increases your electricity cap by 150un, more than a traditional battery. Be warned however, the original battery doesn't increase the cap as much anymore—only by 25un!
    • Ticket Booth: Ever wanted to be able to print Worker Tickets right from your backyard? Well now you can with paper and some... very, very rare resources. The more workers you want per ticket, the more expensive the resource.

What's changed:

  • Megastructures have been buffed again. Dyson Spheres provide 3x output while Planetary Harvesters provide 10x output.
  • The Sun (and other stars) are now (visually) 2x smaller.
  • Tutorial changes;
    • Reworded some dialogue for clarity.
    • Changed certain stages of some tutorials to make them more "up-to-date".
    • Gowlayo doesn't like it when you don't realize that it's time to move on.
  • Bug fixes;
    • You will now actually die from suffocation on the Moon.
    • If you didn't have methane unlocked as a recipe for the Refinery, you will now.
    • The IDM research node will actually unlock the Interstellar Defense Mechanism.
    • If the Supply Crate is enabled, it won't corrupt machines. Only applies to new saves.
    • FIXED THE ENDING CREDITS ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!

But... where's Part B?

If you're still wondering where v1.2.0 Part B is—I hear you! Unfortunately, real life stuff had eaten up most of January and February so I haven't been able to work on it. Luckily, I will have more time in the coming months, so I estimate it will release in June or July.
