Demo continues until full release!

8 Mar

Hey everyone!

Good news!

The demo is going to remain LIVE until the full release!

Even though the original plan was to keep the demo available only until March 10, I’ve decided to keep it live until the full release. Our community is growing surprisingly well - much better than I expected - so thank you all for being part of Approximately Up!

After the #NoFrameChallenge event ends, I will push one final update containing several major bug fixes. After that, the demo will stop receiving updates. I hope this is an acceptable compromise.

From that point on, I will focus 100% on completing the full version of the game, which is far bigger than the demo itself (it should contain 17 planets!). Since I want to deliver the most polished and bug-free product possible, I will use this time before release to gather additional bug reports from you. I will also go through the suggestions channel topic by topic and think about possible ways to implement your ideas.

Since there are hundreds of suggestions on our Discord server, I will temporarily make that channel private so I can review everything properly. We also have playtesters working on the full version to help catch any remaining bugs, so I hope the full release will be as smooth as possible!

You can think of the Demo more as a large, long-term playtest rather than a traditional demo. I think that’s already pretty clear because of the unusually large amount of content available. After the full release, the Demo will go offline and only the full version will remain available.

Thank you all! The full version should be completed sometime around June/July, so until then - stay tuned and have fun!

Changelogs copied from Discord

Keeping these on a closed platform is stupid, so I'm copying every update announcement from the Discord to here so that it's available to others. I'll be starting from the first update after the demo was released and will try to keep on top of them as they happen. Times are in UTC....

#NoFrameChallenge

6 Mar

Hey guys! 👋

The Demo of Approximately Up is coming to an end, and in just few days we’ve grown from a couple of people to almost 2000 members on our Discord! I would like to thank and appreciate every single one of you for joining and trying my game. Together we’ve flown billions of kilometers, collected hundreds of packages, and destroyed thousands of ships along the way, lol.

With that said, I would like to invite you all to join us for one last challenge during this Demo!

🌍 A new planet will be added!

We are launching a contest for all of you. Your goal is to build a spaceship on Moonstep that does not contain any FRAME or WINDOW blocks. Once you enter fly mode, the timeboard will start counting your time. Your goal is to reach the new planet as fast as possible.

Rules:

The spaceship cannot contain any Frame or Window blocks

You cannot use time-rewind during your journey

All crew members must be alive when you land

After landing, you must stay on the landing pad for 10 seconds until the timeboard shows green text. Then create a new topic in the #NoFrameChallenge channel and post a screenshot of your spaceship with the timeboard visible.

Everyone can create only one topic. If you manage to complete the challenge multiple times and achieve a better result, update your existing topic with a new screenshot instead of creating a second one. We will count your best time.

There are two prizes:

All members of the crew that achieves the fastest time will receive free keys for the full version once it releases. To qualify for the fastest-time category, you must also submit a video of the entire flight. You can upload it using Discord, YouTube, Medal, or any other platform, as long as the full run is visible.

From all other participating crews, one crew will be randomly selected to receive free keys as well, so everyone still has a chance!

Have fun! That’s the main purpose of this game.

Update notes?

Do they exist somewhere or for the demo do we just not get information on what is updated?

Is there a reason the glass has speckles ???

Is there some reason that the glass has the specks in it and boarders on the glass to glass boundaries?

Playing coop and trying to keep crew interested during flight

Building a ship together is cool but other 3 is staying stationary often during the flight and that bore them normally, I don't know how but is it possible to add more stuff to control-monitor so we build stations for that, for example power routing, weapons maybe shields and stuff like that. That stuff still can be done in single player with increased hardness but will add more meaning for coop I think. I'm open for your ideas too. Thank you for reading...
