We know you are all eagerly awaiting the next update for Lightyear Frontier, and we greatly appreciate your patience. Let’s talk a bit about what’s happening now and what to expect:
Since release, we’ve noticed that the game feels a bit static, and many of our players and wishlisters are waiting for that special something to be added to the Frontier.
After further exploration of this matter, we realized the game’s direction so far is not quite what we—or you—have hoped for. Over fall and winter, we found an adjustment to the direction that we believe will level up the game to bring it that something we, and you, have been looking for.
The road ahead will address your feedback with a focus on giving you more power, freedom, and creativity on the Frontier:
A bigger world to explore
You let us know that the Frontier felt a bit cramped, and we agreed – so now we’re making it a LOT bigger, with possibilities for more diverse traversal and exploration!
More strategy and power to the mech
We’ve received the feedback that the mech can sometimes give the feeling of not being as strong as it looks, we’re working on changing that – you should feel powerful in your mech! We’re also looking at increasing strategic thinking in how you progress and upgrade your mech, to be stronger than ever before!
Making your homestead more homey
You told us you wanted to be able to go inside and decorate your house, we want to give you that, but more – that’s why we’re working on a modular building system. This will allow your creativity to go wild!
Bigger and better farming!
We know you’ve been craving water automation and like to build big farming fields – we’re working on making that possible!
When is the next update coming?
A lot of positive and exciting things will happen as we walk down this new path, but a change of direction like this, at this stage of the game, comes with some notable trade-offs. The most noticeable is a delay in updates for Lightyear Frontier.
We are aiming for our next big update to be in early summer if development goes as smoothly as we’re hoping. This is because we want to give you an experience in Lightyear Frontier that both you and we can be proud of.
Another trade-off we already know will happen is the removal of our current house constructs, they will be replaced by the new modular building system we mentioned earlier.
In conclusion, the wait for the next update will be a bit longer than usual but, it is for a great cause and exciting things are coming! Now, we imagine that you have a BUNCH of questions…
To bring more clarity, we’d love to answer your questions—whether about past updates, current work, or the future of the Frontier.
Drop your questions in the Steam post’s discussion thread! In about a week, we’ll go through them and share some answers. Stay tuned!
