Hey everyone! It's been exactly 1 week since we officially released The Splintered Sea expansion for Besiege, and we want to say thank you to everyone for continuing to support us! If you already haven't picked it up, the launch discount will run until June 2nd. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2165710/Besiege_The_Splintered_Sea/ We have been monitoring everyones feedback on the expansion and have pushed out a hotfix to the live branch addressing the most serious issues players have been reporting since launch with Version 1.50-21281 (Changelog can be found at the end of the post.) Overall, the reception has been very positive for The Splintered Sea, however some of you have voiced frustrations about the length and difficulty of the campaign. We hear you, and we are working on improving this with a future update. Here's a sneak peek of a new level we've been working on! You might remember it from the announcement trailer.
Additionally, with coming patches we're also expanding the feature set for some of the water blocks.
E.g. by enabling rudders to work as control surfaces in the air and adding the option to mirror the Aquatic Screw chirality.
That's all this week from the Spiderling crew, stay tuned for more updates on improvements! We hope you've all been enjoying The Splintered Sea and look forward to seeing your amazing creations and continued feedback!
