Hey all!
Although this is classed as a 'Minor Update', we feel this is still big news:
V0.1.2 is now out!
The main focus for this update has been the Player Follow Camera, but we've also made a few other changes to the world thanks to your feedback. Ultimately this should lead to a smoother experience overall, with the rover feeling easier to control and cetrain locations being easier to navigate. (See Changelog below!)
Today also marks the end of the 'Steam Space Exploration Fest'. It's been a great help sharing the game with you all and we're delighted to say we've surpassed the small wishlist goal we had in mind 🥳
Thanks for helping us pass 500 wishlists - we're well on our way to that first thousand! <3
As always, community feedback has played a really important role in ROVA's development. Your support means the world to us🪐
If you do have any future feedback, the best place to share it is in the steam community forums.
