[2020] Space Haven Alpha 8 Updated.

Greetings, Spacefarers!

It has been very hectic for us here at Bugbyte, but we're really happy to be able to push out the new patch today! This patch addresses many bugs you've reported and also has some other smaller improvements.

We noticed it was easy to miss the UI box with the information on how to rotate a facility, and many wished they would be bound to Q and E on the keyboard by default. We improved the outlook of the rotation information box and made rotation keybinds be bound to Q and E by default.

We also heard you on the missing sounds and have started adding some more sounds to the game. We will aim to do this more and more with time.

We've also heard you on other issues and rest assured we are gathering all feedback and aim to improve the game! We just need a little time to figure out our bearings and make some implementations =)



We would also like to highlight this great tutorial video series by Rhadamant. If you have trouble getting into the game take a look! We advice anyone new to start with the Basic Platform scenario, but the video series above should help you on your space voyage.

One of the best things with being a developer is seeing players interact with your game. It has been awesome to see you create your own creations. There are so many we would like to show here but we can only pick a few. Here are some great ships made by you, our players!
