We have arrived! Space Haven is now Fully Released after a long journey together in Early Access. We want to give a big thank you to all of you playing our game and giving us feedback. We've strived to do our very best and keep grinding based on the feedback we've received.

With Space Haven we hope that somewhere along the way, the game becomes more than just systems and mechanics for you, our players. A colony sim you enjoy to discover and play, a goal we've had in mind since the beginning. All these years, from the bottom of our hearts, we've done our very best to deliver to the best of our capabilities.

Here's to you! All the players, youtubers and streamers as well as our freelancers helping us with the game in various ways. You've been an integral part of making Space Haven come alive just as it is today.

Space Haven would never be the game it is without all of us putting our own visions together, and leaving our own mark on it. You, our players, are part of it too. And we hope what we've managed to accomplish so far is an indication of that.

A warm welcome to our new players. Hope you enjoy the game and if you run into any issues reach out to us and other players on our Steam forums, Discord or Reddit! We are all here for you.

We decided to take a bite-size approach to our 1.0 release and do many Release Candidate updates this year in preparation for the 1.0 Release Day. Our approach has been to continuously update this year with QOL and other updates towards the full release. We did not want to gatekeep for the release day and then have to frantically fix possible new bugs as new players play the game.

This way the game is already more tested when going live for full release, and it also allows streamers to create content of the game without having to hassle with some hidden test branches to let them play.
