TMW Development Update - May 30th 2022

This Means Warp

It’s co-op space survival fun, Jim, but not as we know it. This Means Warp is an intense spaceship management roguelite experience for 1-4 players. Explore a procedurally generated universe, upgrade your ship, battle dangerous enemies and adapt your strategies to survive in a hostile galaxy.

This Means Warp’s first big content drop launched a few weeks ago (full details [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1269300/view/3219520823712223459]here[/url]), and we’re now hard at work on loads more changes as part of Update 2! [h3]What are you working on?[/h3] The full feature list for Update 2 will be revealed soon, but in the meantime there are three big areas we’re focusing on: [list] [*] Mission variation [*] Quality of life improvements [*] Crew AI [/list] Most of Update 2 is based on player feedback, including many features that have been directly requested by the community. If you’d like to have your say, [url=https://discord.gg/qweF5Px]join us on Discord[/url] - your suggestions may well make it into the next update! [h3]How has the Early Access roadmap changed since launch?[/h3] This Means Warp’s Early Access development roadmap was shaped based on Alpha and Beta player feedback, but with the influx of new Early Access players we now have even more ideas and suggestions to integrate into the game! The most common request around launch was for more replayability, so Update 1 was adjusted to feature a lot of additional content once you’ve completed the main story. Update 2, on the other hand, focuses more around areas that can become tedious after many runs (hello “Skip Intro” and “Inspect Item” buttons!). We have more updates planned in the future, and will continue to adapt the changes based on input from This Means Warp’s community. [h3]When will Update 2 be released?[/h3] Exact date TBD, but we’re aiming for late June 2022. [h3]Any other news?[/h3] We were very excited to see our “Best Upcoming Game” award arrive in the post, and if you're looking for some cool new games to try, we're also participating in the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40157993/sale/dreamhack_beyond]Dreamhack Beyond Festival[/url] for the next week!
