DLC: Testing Laboratory

On the 30th of April, you will experience a new chapter from the story! DLC: Testing Laboratory tells the story back on the Earth. Test Lab is kind of a flashback chapter, or a prequel if you want. Our hero just signed up for the Endera's suicide mission, but he wants to be captain of the mission. What really happens and why he ended up as the coffee-guy? Try to uncover this secret! This DLC will be available for all owners of Collector's Edition for free! If you don't want to miss this chapter, you have the option to upgrade your game to the Collector's Edition. Or you can buy this DLC separately. DLC: Testing Laboratory Approx. game time: +1 hour of gameplay Release date: 30th April Price: Free (Collector's Edition) or 1,99 USD/€

Free story update: Secret of the Entity

And even more exciting news! If you don't want to go deep into DLC stories, we are preparing a big content update for all players for free! With version 1.0.5 you will get access to experience "Secret of the Entity". More levels and more story incoming! UPDATE: Secret of the Entity Approx. game time: 5+ hours of gameplay Release date: May 2015 Price: Free for all users On the other hand, we want to greatly apologize to all players with Windows XP, before this update Windows XP was functional, but we have updated our code to a new engine version which also means that Windows XP is no longer supported (in fact it has never been, but we want to be honest and say this). Also, we want to thank you for all of your positive reviews and all the reported bugs. We are fully focused on making the game even more enjoyable and looking forward to hear how you like the update on our Steam Discussion forum! Enjoy the game, FiolaSoft Studio
