We are proud to announce the largest update we’ve done to date: the Discovery Update! This massive update includes new systems such as Space Station crafting, establishes the narrative with an opening cinematic, and rebalances virtually all of the economy and gameplay. We’re also constantly improving the combat, traversal, and vehicles, while polishing up the UI and fixing every bug we can. All this, and we haven’t even mentioned the new Biomes!
Space Station Crafting
Fully craft your own Space Station in low orbit. All station modules can interconnect in any combination, allowing for total flexibility in design and layout.
Each module has its own purpose and features, including crafting, power systems, and storage.
Space Stations are free from the erosion and dangers of the existing planetside in an atmosphere, creating an interesting strategic option to store valuable resources.
New Biomes
Proteus 2 takes advantage of the new technology we’ve been developing that adds various zones and areas into a world. We’ve doubled the amount of world textures, rendered millions of blades of grass, and populated countless new alien foliages - each yielding various resources.
Discovery System
Everything you observe on your adventures can now be discovered. Far more than a simple achievement, the Discovery System actually unlocks all the various resources any found resource will yield. Essentially, each weapon or tool used on a resource may yield a different item, allowing for far more scientific exploration of the solar system and all of its life forms.
Salvaging System
This powerful system allows you to find, salvage, repair and commandeer lost structures, vehicles, and droids in the world. This is a great way to acquire a high level object much earlier on, giving you a higher chance of survival and another path towards sustainability.
Mineral Hardness Matters
A small but significant change, mineral harness is now, very much, “a thing”. A key part of gameplay progression, you’ll need to have the right tool for the job as lesser tools simply will not mine a mineral of higher hardness.
GPS Resource Filtering
Minerals can now be filtered on your updated GPS. This very handy tool, which is now always available in your HUD and no longer attached to your Locator, reads from your surrounding satellites and your own internal suit radar to create detection radii.
This system will show you all the surrounding minerals, their hardness and density, so you can find what you’re looking for in your crafting missions.
New Tools and Changes
The Chisel and Multi Tool are now mid game tools and are no longer starting equipment. The Locator has been changed to the Radar. Many tools have been added to fill out the tool progression. Here’s a few:
New Resources and Alloys
We’ve added many new minerals and resources to the game such as Silver, Tin, Quartz, Sulfur, and Uranium.
Ingots have been removed. They felt like too much of a grind mechanic. In their place is Alloys, which are scientific composites of minerals that create new metals and materials to be used for advanced crafting builds.
Proper Economy Design Balancing
With the mineral hardness, added and revised tools, the Salvaging system, and the updated GPS filtering, a full and complete economy rebalance has been implemented. Every recipe in the game has now changed to utilize all these new features. Our aim is that this will create a deeper experience, with more meaningful and strategic choices, create emergent crafting scenarios and allow for a far more engaging experience.
Removal of Build Gates
The build gates are gone, which we felt was arbitrary and grindy. Instead are structure prerequisites which we feel make more sense and are more meaningful. For instance, if a Utility requires power the build will require a power source prior to building. This creates a natural gameplay progression that is for more free and branching, while at the same time allowing each Structure built to have all the necessary Utilities to function when built.
New Skill Tree
Replacing the old skill tree, is, uh, the new skill tree! Instead of grindy gates, you now can unlock actual skills or “perks” that boost your abilities.
Opening Cinematic
The story and missions are going through development as well. This update features the opening cinematic of the game, and for the first time gives proper context as to why you are here and what your overall mission is.
Combat Improvements
Under constant tooling and improvements in the combat system, AI behaviours, and weapon systems. While we are endlessly tweaking all the elements to bring our creatures to life, the most noticeable feature is probably the health and indicator system. Creatures now display how much health they have in your HUD, and show offscreen warnings.
New Creatures
Many new creatures have been added. Mostly small, insect-like creatures lurk around the new biomes of Proteus 2. There is a new predatory creature spotted on Aziel, which likes to attack in groups.
No More Loading When Entering Mines
We cut the load screen when entering mines and underground areas, making going in and out of these areas seamless. Gone are the load and data problems, and entering and leaving these areas is simple and fast.
We’ve also taken the opportunity to completely expand the mine and underground system. All the mines are now different and expansive. Be careful, you could get lost down there!
Traversal Improvements
We were not satisfied with the hill and rock climbing, so we addressed it with much improved handling.
3rd person animation also gets an upgrade with more responsive transitions from idle to run.
UI Improvements
The entire UI system now has section headers at top clearly indicating what screen you are viewing. Screen space has been optimized with lots of nudging and anchoring of elements to get the most out of the layout.
Inventory gets a fresh icon pass contextually illustrating key elements per selection with a new selection indicator. This makes viewing inventory easier and more meaningful, allowing you to see important information quickly and easily.
Vehicle Improvements
Vehicle torque has been vastly improved to allow for vehicles to climb over very rugged terrain. The art has been updated for the GAV, Rover, and Spaceship to give more crisp detail. The Mech has also been vastly improved to traverse hills easier with improved shooting and audio. Hovercraft has revised physics to minimize nose diving into terrain.

We hope you enjoy the Discovery Update as much as we did creating it. We can’t even begin to explain what a joy it’s been finally getting into the game design now that the game has stabilized with the previous round of updates we performed this year. Our goal has always been to make the best near future space survival experience possible, and we sincerely feel that this is a giant leap in that direction.
