Farewell, marble-dwellers!

The best part of this game is that it's so early access there is no way to close the loop for most resources and make something sustainable except by making a nightmare colony where everyone just stress vomits into a pit forever as a source of renewable water and you just spread a bunch of dirt out of a toilet on the ground because it's the only thing that will generate oxygen ex nihilo sustainably.

Now it is early access for real: http://forums.kleientertainment.com/topic/78822-oxygen-not-included-early-access-available-now/

In addition to the agricultural update:

quote:

Farming Features

New Items, Buildings and Recipes: Discover new plants, buildings and yummy cooking recipes. Farm food and flavour-enhancing spices, then cook them into culinary delights for your Duplicants to enjoy.
Improved Crop Tending: Build pipe systems and irrigate your crops using new farm plots. Monitor pressure, temperature, fertilization and irrigation to keep your crops happy and healthy.
New Farming Systems: The Harvest Rating Point system now allows you to increase the yield of your harvest by meeting ideal growing conditions for crops. Reach 100 Harvest Rating and your plants will yield tons of extra kcal and new seeds for farm expansion.
Consumables Screen: Control your colony's eating habits with the new Consumables Screen. Dupes now have Food Quality Expectations, so try to feed them foods they like!

and some new features:

quote:

Power Control: Manage your power systems more effectively and prevent overloads and meltdowns with the new Power Transformer
New Energy Source: Natural Gas Geysers have tons of power to harness using the Natural Gas Generator, so long as you don't mind the smell.
Hydro and Atmo Switches: Automate your systems with pressure-detecting liquid and gas switches.

Quality of Life Improvements:
Storage and Planter Copy Settings: Cut down on time spent setting storage filters and planting seeds by copying & painting filter settings.
Breaktimes: No more assigning Dupes to Massage Tables with the new Breaktime Policy screen. Set the stress levels at which they should stop working with the Max Stress slider, then tell them when they should get back to work with Min Stress.
Default Job Restrictions: Use the Default column of the Jobs Screen to set job restrictions for new Dupes. Newly printed Dupes will come out with these settings already assigned.
Framerate improvement, reduced load times, UI changes & more
Screenshot Mode: Alt-S will now allow you to enter screenshot mode. Zoom out and take a picture of your entire base, then show it to all your friends.
