Hi everyone! It’s been a little over a month since the latest major update (v2.1). I hope you’ve all enjoyed the new content and fixes that were included in that update.
Today's update marks a big milestone for the game, as I’ve been working hard over the past few months to add some localisation to Within the Cosmos. In this update, you’ll find Spanish and French localisation! While I would love to translate it into more languages, I did these myself as they are the only other languages that I know.
Apart from that, I’ve also included a number of bug fixes and improvements to various gameplay elements.
