The Spatials: Galactology verlaat Early Access

Na ruim twee jaar aan de weg te hebben getimmerd in Early Access heeft ontwikkelaar Weird and Wry besloten dat hun game een punt bereikt heeft waar ze zich comfortabel bij voelen. Hun geesteskindje, The Spatials: Galactology, heeft daarom een full release gekregen.

Early Access wordt vaak gebruikt als een soort betaalde beta build, waarin vooral nog kleine wijzigingen worden gedaan. Die vlieger gaat in dit geval echter niet op. Weird and Wry heeft namelijk talloze toevoegingen aan de game gedaan sinds de Early Access launch, waaronder:

Colony stations built on planets
Building system based on rooms with separate flooring and walls
New room styles
Combine any floor tiles together with a range of colors
New objects to furnish the station, both decorative and functional
New space flight system based on wormholes
Ship construction
Civilizations also have ships and use them to visit you
New civilizations (Chuchus, Cucurbians and Meductians)
Per-factory order queues
Global mode for factory production based on stock levels
