Add more materials for constructing & simulating planets & atmospheres.Fundamental improvements to our planetary collision systemĬheck out our 2022 Retrospective for more on what we did last year.Customizing the look and topography of planets and moons with a library of realistic color and height maps.Exploring constellations for 10 different cultures.Spinning up planets so fast they break apart using the new Force Spin tool.These included many new features, but some of our favorites are In 2022, we put out 9 updates for Universe Sandbox.
Highlights From 2022 Demonstrating highlights from 2022, including the Force Spin tool, Settle Water button, and Auto Simulation Speed. But before we dive in, let’s recap some accomplishments from last year. Our roadmap for 2023 includes simulating the lakes of liquid methane on Titan, hot planets emitting light, and realistically colliding spacecraft and bananas. We’re working to give you more power to understand and control the complex phenomena of the universe. Blue means fewer computations, while red means more. The colors show how many times the orbit of a nebula must be computed to maintain physical accuracy. Currently, trails are only shown for some nebulae due to performance limitations. The Milky Way galaxy with a trail for every nebula in the galaxy using our upcoming physics architecture improvements. We recommend GOG and Itch players on Linux use either Heroic Games Launcher or Lutris for future versions. If you are a GOG or Itch player, older releases will remain available in their respective download sections. If you are a Steam player who needs access to the last Linux native version (Update 32.3), please contact us.
As a small indie team, the upkeep of a Linux version was disproportionately high compared to the size of the Linux player base (just over 0.5% of all players).ĭue to the limitations of the Steam platform, we can no longer provide access to older native Linux versions. Valve has put a tremendous amount of energy into developing Proton, which has made this decision much easier. We know this may be disappointing, but after internal testing and user feedback, we have found that playing Universe Sandbox through Proton on Linux machines provides a better overall experience. If you are a Steam Linux player, no action is required to continue playing Universe Sandbox. Future Linux versions of Universe Sandbox on Steam will be powered by Valve’s Proton, software built into Steam that allows Windows games to run on Linux. Our latest release, Update 32.3, will be our last with a native Linux version of Universe Sandbox.
