Hi fellow Cosmonauticans,
first of all you may rest assured that we're still here and updating and enhancing the game. We always said that we're not going to abandon our game, it just took us some time to get working on it again in a proper way after gamescom and some needed vacation time.
So we put lots of effort into fixing crashes and optimize the game here and there. We also added new missions and we're planning a new update as you read these lines.
