Out There: Ω Edition Free Update Now Available

Developer Mi-Clos Studio has announced that Out There: Ω Edition has received a free update on Steam.

Game Description:

Out there is an award-winning space exploration game blending roguelike, resource management and interactive fiction. You are an astronaut awaking from cryonics not in the solar system, but … Out there … in a far unknown place of the galaxy.

You will have to survive, tinkering your ship with what you can gather drifting in the void, and spot garden planets to refill your oxygen supply. Survival and understanding of what is really at stake in the galaxy is the core of what Out There has to offer.

With more than 400,000 units moved on PC and mobiles, Out There: Ω Edition has been celebrated by the press and the gamers. Selected as “Best Mobiles Games of 2014” by Game Informer, Touch Arcade and Pocket Gamer among others

UPDATE NOTES:
Multiverse I – Cemetery Gates

EASY MODE  – 

First, the long-awaited ‘easy mode’. We’ve been strongly against that in the past as it would change the whole spirit of the game. 

But we think that it’s a shame some people are not able to experience our game or get quite frustrated because of its evil difficulty. So this issue has been addressed. 

Also, a specific leaderboard has been created for this mode. 

GAS GIANT RINGS  – 

They were missing for far too long, so we thought that adding rings around the gas giants would be a great cosmetic addition. Well, maybe it’s not only cosmetic. 

CEMETERY GATES GAME MODE – 

The most important addition is a new game mode called ‘Cemetery Gates’. 

In this mode, you will encounter the last 10 space ships you have lost during previous runs, right where you’ve left them. You’ll be able to scavenge the resources that you’ve left inside or simply take over the ship and continue your adventure. 

This mode will open up new strategies and possibilities. 

It will also boost the early game, that is is sometimes slow, as you’ll find more ships around the starting point (remember all those runs prematurely ended because of bad luck?). 

What about Humble, Android and iOS?

Of course, the update is coming for free to every platform where Out There is available.
Expect it in the coming days on the Humble Store, Google Play and Amazon App Store.
Unfortunately, it won’t be available on Apple App Store before november, due to iOS 9 bugs
