Welcome, Space Miners! The HQ of Cosminers is pleased to announce new developments focused on enhancing the core gameplay systems that define the player’s experience on Tau Ceti F.
The multitool is the most essential device of every Cosminer — a versatile instrument that enables survival, progress, and defense on the planet. Work continues on the implementation of a completely redesigned multitool laser system. These mining lasers are no longer static tools — they now adapt dynamically to both their intended function and the level of upgrades (color-coded power levels: red, orange, violet) and beam spread (narrow version currently implemented; moderate and wide versions in development) applied by the player. Whether used for mineral extraction, cutting, or defensive applications, each laser beam now changes in visual form, intensity, and effect, reflecting the player's evolving mining strategy and technological progress.
Beyond mining, the multitool is also used for repairing damaged infrastructure — useful feature after environmental hazards. Additionally, Cosminers will rely on it to defend themselves from aggressive life forms inhabiting the planet. Several firing modes are available: the energy launcher, which charges to deliver high-damage blasts, and the plasma gun, which enables rapid-fire bursts. This expanded functionality adds meaningful tactical variety and rewards experimentation with different tool configurations and combat styles.
Equally important is the introduction of the modular Cosminer survival suits. These suits are no longer just a protective layer—they now serve as a visual and functional indicator of the player’s progression. As players upgrade systems, improve life support, and expand base capabilities, their suits will visibly evolve. Enhanced helmets, reinforced plating, specialized gear attachments—all will reflect the player’s growth and choices throughout the campaign. 
These enhancements are part of a broader effort to reinforce the hard sci-fi identity of Cosminers, where every element—from tools to equipment—tells a story of adaptation, survival, and human ingenuity in an alien world.
Thank you for continuing to support the development of Cosminers.
