Way back when I first started Underspace my vision was always consistent: A game where you fly out into space with your buddies and get into supernatural cosmic adventures.
Now that's finally a reality: We fought a storm then got trapped in magic space prison and had to escape. I could almost cry.

Underspace's first public multiplayer test is now available! Fly with your friends, have house parties, get eaten by a ghost starship. Just remember to forward your ports.

Underspace's multiplayer alpha test is almost here! Hang out with your friends. Meet a god. Fight a god. Kill a god. Eat something weird. Mess with your friend while he's trying to close on a house. Invite that friend to your house.

Multiplayer's coming along! Did you know that it works with mods right out of the box and that you can pirate other players? You now know.
#gamedev #underspace #indiegame #multiplayer
I redid some of the server options to match the rest of the game's options menu, and added a bunch of new server options for admins to really customize how your experience. It's something I appreciate in games these days.

More multiplayer stuff: Players can declare themselves for a faction (which affects IFF, good for roleplay and such), and also get assigned titles as well.

Character appearances, other players, other ships, and chat have all been restored to functionality. This whole shebang might go faster than I thought.
#gamedev #underspace #indiegame #multiplayer
Let's get back to multiplayer: Account creation, character creation and customization, and the basics of connecting to a server have all been restored. Hoping to get the first multiplayer release out to our closed beta testers soon.

Prepare to run some blockades: The game's wanted system has received an overhaul! Committing pirate activity when wanted will alert battleships to your position, as it has in the past, but now they're much better about chasing you and also are a hell of a lot stronger.

Underspace's first post-newyears update is now live! Featuring: Sitting in chairs, more mod support, and some other bullshit. The sitting in chairs part is the most important. You couldn't even do that in Morrowind, it's THAT advanced.
#underspace #indiegame
A save from two years ago would work with it. In general I don't wipe saves and I try to make sure that even the oldest saves are still compatible with the latest versions. If it isn't, shoot me a bug report and the save in question.

One final update for #Underspace for the year! I've been busy.
Hundreds of new news stories and books to read, tons of new NPCs to talk to, quest improvements, and oh yeah fully integrated mod support + the Steam Workshop.
#gamedev #indiegame #space
Fuck it, I'mma add steam workshop support to #Underspace
#gamedev
Our next update for #Underspace drops on December 31st, and one of the last things I'm bringing is over 40+ new NPCs to talk to: Small little guys that are there for worldbuilding, backer rewards, and rumormongers. Because not everything has to contribute to the Almighty Gameplay Loop.

Underspace's next big update drops at the end of the year, and part of that involves doing a pass on quests: General improvements and small bits like additional attacks on minibosses, more sound, more Grafics, relit quest interiors, etc.

The latest beta branch update of Underspace now includes its full modding SDK, including documentation! I'm also working on Steam workshop support, and I'm pretty sure some dude is already porting Freelancer's ship's into the game now.
#underspace #gamedev #indiedev
Someone actually did that years ago, but it was hacky and done through Melonloader as a replacement. This system's all proper and natively integrated into the game. It's even got a load order sorter and a thingy that can detect conflicts between mods!
Weep and beg whatever gods you believe in, because Underspace's modding editor and model importing system are all working. See this train? This train right here was made in the game's modding SDK, from tip to tail. We're all going to die.

Funny, that's also something I made.

I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine. I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.

It's funny watching people expect translations into other languages for Underspace when like
The game has four million words in terms of readable text. The money it'd take to translate that into even one other language would be around fifteen times the game's current budget.
Fixed up some missile bits for the game. They were due for a fix.
#underspace #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame #gamedevelopment
It's taken a shitload of work and a lot of sweat and tears, but Underspace is now almost entirely data driven, and can support mods for a ton of stuff. Wanna port over ships from... other games? Go ahead with this upcoming update.
#underspace #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame #gamedevelopment
Two months. Two friggin months of nonstop writing for this: Over 450 news stories and blurbs on every single space station and planet. This was the most miserable bit of work I've ever worked on.

Spend an entire week porting the game over to a new version of Unity, and lo and behold there's been massive gains (surprising, given that it's Unity). Anyway there's a beta branch for the game now for all these new goodies.
You need to understand just how massive this game already is. You could easily get a hundred hours out of it.

Before all disappear to play Silksong, why not check out a new Underspace patch with some news about upcoming stuff like multiplayer, plus some visual goodies!

I wish it was as simple as that, but they usually want the keys to resell it to key sites, or just want free shit in general.
Like you can't even bother to remove the bits around the game's name that indicate you just copy and pasted it. Of course I wouldn't give you a key.
Good god the scalpers and scammers begging for steam keys just NEVER ends. I must have gotten fifteen emails in the past two hours alone from dudes who can't even bother to pretend that they aren't just sending out a premade response.
