Something new?
So hello all player of Station 21.
All of us at R-Teccgames have been looking into ways of making this game so much better.
We have so many ideas and so many possibilities, such as controllable characters, a company launch tactic, interactable items, Eva missions, player driven research contracts, module expansion, modding support...the list goes on.

You might think, "Yes brilliant, get it in the game!?"
Well...we've tried. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, it means a lot of work.

The main problem is the way we programmed Station 21 is too complex to change major systems, plus we would have to strip back around 100k lines of code and that means BUGS! LOTS!

So what do we do?
Scrap our ideas?
No! We start again!

New engine, new mechanics, new graphics, new code...NEW GAME!
New game? Yes Station 21 was a a tuff launch for us and we realise we are stuck in a hole with it.
A new game means a new start wish more then what we in visioned in the first place.

Our team has been at work making prototypes and examples to see what we could come up with before posting anything here.
It's fair to say there is a lot of great idea's and we are going with it.

Now you think, oh I've wasted my time with this game!
No you haven't, everyone that has a code will automatically get free access to the new version from Pre-Alpha stages, that means we can work with everyone and take in fresh ideas as we develop the game.
It's an exciting time again and we hope your along for the ride with us, we will make the game we wanted first time around!

Thanks and much love, R-teccgames Team.

Thats pretty awesome. I was pretty disappointed by this release really, I bought it at the higher price point. Then felt it was way to bare bones for what I paid for it only to be met with a paid DLC at that time with was hard to swallow. I love the premise and idea behind this. Its a great idea stuck behind an engine thats too limited. As it is now its really hard to feel any sense of accomplishment after a certain point. Awesome that we are getting Station 22 free. I would even be open to paid DLC to help you recoup some costs for it.

Thank you so much for your kind words, we didn't know how people would react to the news but thankfully you have warmed our hearts.
Of course everyone deserves it free after such a shambles of a launch and the loses don't matter to us we just want people to play and enjoy our games.
We are heavy in development at the moment so we have posts coming out almost daily about Station 22 if you would like to keep up to date check out the website or our social media for more.
