Greetings, Spacefarer!
Space Haven Alpha 13 is now available to play in the experimental branch. As a reminder, the update process is as follows:

  1. A new Update is first available in the Experimental Branch.
  2. Players, who do not mind playing a more unstable version, will first want to test the new update.
  3. Once the experimental game build looks solid and stable enough we will push it out officially to all players!
NOTE! Joining experimental is completely optional, and you should only do it if you are willing to risk that some new bugs are introduced, which could affect your game play and potentially break your save.

Please do not join the experimental branch if you don't want to risk breaking your save or have the game break on you in midst of pla... Read more

Greetings, Spacefarer!
The Upcoming Alpha 13 Update takes inspiration from Apollo 13, where accidents happen and research is imperative to survival! In the spirit of Apollo 13 we wanted to invest more time into the Research System and incentivize exploration by creating research bonuses from dismantling facilities on board other spaceships and stations.

We also wanted to tie Research with examining alien life forms and experimentation with resources, where some research modules will require the crew to carry out experiments on resources to discover new technologies.

To add to the emergent storytelling component of the game we have expanded upon the accidents system, and tied it together with research experiments and other crew member activities. We have created some new facilities to make all of t... Read more

Exactly this. The storage isn't just a stack of boxes in a hole, it's a fully automated, climate controlled robotic system designed to work with standardized modular packaging. Even when it's not currently receiving anything, it's maintaining a steady temperature and humidity, and maybe doing some internal reshuffling to optimize retrieval times.

Greetings, Spacefarers!
Before we move on to develop the next big Alpha update (Alpha 13) we wanted to spend some time to implement improvements, which could have a big impact on game play. Our priority is to always leave the current Alpha in a solid state before moving on to a longer period of development time on a new Alpha iteration.

Tooltips for Character skills and attributes have been requested by many and we're happy to include them in this new update along with many tweaks to their effects! Read on to see what's new in this update.
