What’s New

This update brings major improvements, community-driven polish, and expanded platform and language support.


Simplified Chinese Localization

Thanks to the Arcadium Discord community, the game is now fully available in Simplified Chinese!


Mac Support

Both the demo and the full game (at launch) now fully support macOS.


Big Gameplay & UI Update

These changes were heavily influenced by the great feedback from the r/SteamDeck community. Thank you for helping refine the game!

  • Improved joystick sensitivity in menus; selections should now feel smoother and more controlled.

  • Added an animated white outline to better highlight the current selection.

  • Fixed an issue in the Loadout screen where closing a skill description always moved the selection back to Play.

  • Slightly increased overall difficulty: the first depth remains introductory, while later depths offer more challenge.

  • Added icons to event arrows (e.g., shops, broken allies, etc.) for clarity.

  • Simplified several ability descriptions.

  • Fixed localization issues in planet resource labels.

  • Various minor fixes and improvements.
