Hey, space cowboys! The new build is already here, and it will be the last one this year, perhaps we will publish a hotfix though if needed. So we would like to wish you a lot of fun during holidays, Merry Christmas and New Year. And if you are new here and planning to dive into our yet flawed space western world (it's an Early Access title, after all), we are happy to announce that you can get Exoplanet with 25% OFF during Steam Winter Sale.
Keep in mind that we are working hard on the completely new beginning of the game and improving Anomaly Area as well (which is known as the starting area at the time) because we're not satisfied with it at all and believe it gives wrong impression to new players. If you missed our latest long read about it and would like to learn what we are planning to do with Exoplanet, you can check the post to see our early drafts, screenshots and concept art:

CHANGELOG
I would like to remind you that since the previous update we started to name it by build's version that's why it is BUILD 0.27 not UPDATE #12. Builds will be published more frequently that's why sometimes there will be no huge changes as in updates.
WORLD
- added an area above Lemonade Wade dwelling
- improved Big Hat hollow rock cave
- improved smuggler's den
- improved Outcast Camp
QUESTS
- fixed a logical error in 'Find the Arphant' quest
- improved texts and fixed misprints
OTHER
- tuned crucases' spawn around Lemonade Wade cave
- fixed hero's twitching on steep slopes (there are some other problems though which will be fixed later)
- now inventory can't be opened during remote controlling a bug
- fixed a bug when Mad Hermit doesn't attack you
- a great deal of minor changes, other bugs fixes and minor polishing
IMPORTANT
If there's no sound after game's loading, try to alt-tab to Windows and then go back to the game.
If you're stuck / hero doesn't move, F5 (quick save) and F9 (quick load) can help you in such matters.
If you have a weak PC or a laptop (especially the ones with Intel integrated graphics), we highly recommend to launch Exoplanet from its folder, not via Steam.
Keep in mind that integrated graphic cards are not supported despite the fact we do our best to make it possible. At the moment, there's a chance you can run the game but your performance probably won't be good enough to enjoy Exoplanet.
If you have BitDefender antivirus and can't launch the game, please, unblock Exoplanet's .exe.
If you have any other problem, please let us know via our Discord channel. You can also report about bugs on technical support forum, send us a mail to [email protected] with description of the problem and your PC specs or simply use our crash reporter to do that (Alt+F1).
You can find your .log file here: Documents\Alersteam\Exoplanet First Contact\system.log
As usual, we recommend to start a new game.
