0.44.00 STABLE BUILD! NEW FUEL STILL, FISH, ANIMAL TRAPS, OCEAN CURRENT AND MORE!
The new 0.44.01 update transitions our latest work on the experimental branch to the stable branch. If you haven’t been following the progress of our experimental branch, we've recently added a new Fuel Still, new Animal Traps, new Fish Schools, new Ocean Current and more! We’ve covered the new features in the patch notes below and you can also read more on the new features in our previous experimental patch notes on the News page. A short recap --- [quote]The new Fuel Still uses Potatoes to distil a crude ethanol fuel which can be used to power Vehicles. If you use combustion propulsion for your Rafts or Gyro you will probably want to start growing Potato crops ready to be distilled to ensure you have enough fuel for travelling. This functionality goes hand-in-hand with the re-introduction of the new Fueling System. Like the good old days of Stranded Deep you will need to find and use Jerry cans to carry fuel and refill vehicles again.[/quote] [quote]This build also features new Fish Flocks!. The new flocks are part of our on-going work on the new fish system. The new flocks of small detail fish that can be found around shore-lines and reefs which help to add more life to the underwater environment in SD.[/quote] [quote]Thanks to Paul and Felix, our friends at Only Sound, we are completely overhauling the sound effects in Stranded Deep. See below for a complete list of implemented audio effects and be sure to let us know what you think. Please note that some sounds are missing and some are WIP.[/quote] [quote]This update builds on the last with a new, more efficient and easier to work with Audio FX system now running behind the scenes. There’s also a new Sea Snake and some more new SFX included.[/quote] [quote]The Fish Trap is back! The new Fish Trap does not require bait but does require assembling once placed in the water. Dismantle the Fish Trap and drag it to a new location to catch different species of fish. It is a slower alternative to Rod and Spear fishing so can take a few hours to catch something. The Bird Snare allows you to catch seagulls whilst you’re doing other activities. The snare triggers when a seagull lands on it and can then be collected and skinned. The Water Still has been adjusted to a more realistic design. You will now have to place foliage such as Palm Fronds and Fibrous Leaves into the bottom compartment while the top section will collect the evaporated droplets. This setup works similar to the Fuel Still Boiler. There’s also a new Ocean Current feature where all buoyant objects are affected by and move with the current. Rafts will automatically move at the ocean current speed which is approximately 1 knot. Sails will move rafts at the wind speed if raised, approximately 4-5 knots. It is possible to lose floating objects if you let them sail off into the horizon. This is where the recent addition of the Sea Anchor may come in handy![/quote] Have fun :) Stay Alive! :: Beam Team –

Stranded Deep Depot 64 bit Linux [1.05 G]
Take the role of a plane crash survivor stranded somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. Experience terrifying encounters both above and below an endless environment. Come face to face with some of the most life threatening scenarios that will result in a different experience each time you play.
Scavenge. Discover. Survive.

The things we want and things we know you want!
Scavenge. Discover. Survive.
---
- Generate an Infinite Number of Procedural Worlds - Explore Pacific islands, reefs, and bottomless ocean trenches filled with detailed biomes!
No two worlds are the same - You can generate a completely new and randomized world at any time. You can also mix your own maps created with the map editor in with the procedurally created maps in the world for a more customized experience. If you feel like sharing, you can even share your world seed with other players.
* Please note, currently the generated world size is limited to 6.25km2 but the final world size will be much larger. - Dynamic Weather and Day-Night Cycle - Struggle to navigate stormy seas or enjoy basking with a coconut on a sunny afternoon.
- Unique Physically-based Crafting System - Harvest resources to create equipment by combining them together in the physical world - no crafting slots!
- Unique Physically-based Building System - Settle on an island and construct a shelter or venture the seas with your own built raft.
- Detailed Survival Aspects and Interaction - Manage your vitals of hunger, thirst, blood, and health against the harshness of mother nature.
- Random Loot and Collectables - Search sunken shipwrecks and islands for interesting and rare equipment.
- Hunting and fishing - Spear small animals in the shallows or risk the depths with a spear gun in search of larger meals. Starve an island of resources or maintain and manage its growth.
The things we want and things we know you want!
- Dealing with bugs -A lot of effort has been put into making sure your Stranded Deep experience is as bug free as possible, however the game is in an Early Access stage of development, so there will be bugs. We will be doing our best to squish them.
- Performance - Optimizing performance is an important ongoing process that will continue through the Early Access period.
- Island and Terrain Variety - Creating more unique biomes and biome parameters for different procedural generations.
- More Wildlife - Incorporating more fish and shark species and more interesting island wildlife like birds, snakes and lizards.
- An End-game Scenario - Making it possible to complete a series of optional tasks and progress through the world in an attempt to be rescued.
- Co-operative Gameplay - Where you can band together as a team of misfits and ration your supplies or eliminate each other one by one.
- Improved User Interface - All of the in-game UI is temporary and will be replaced with a more fitting theme.
- Occulus Rift Support
- Controller Support
- Much more! - See our website for more details, http://www.beamteamgames.com
