Planned: Changes, Fixes, and Improvements

Terminal Colony: Deep Core
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS


Research locked Tabs (Upgrades, Automation)

The Upgrades and Automation tabs are no longer available from the start you now unlock them through the Technology Research Center.

New research nodes

  • Upgrades Facility unlocks the Upgrades tab

    • Cost: 750 Data, 350 Blocks, 50 Energy

    • Time: 30s

    • Requires depth: 150m

  • Automation Facility unlocks the Automation tab

    • Cost: 500 Data, 200 Blocks, 50 Energy

    • Time: 45s

    • Requires depth: 200m

    • Prerequisite: Upgrades Facility

Added a small Command Center window that acts as a quick launcher for any UI you’ve unlocked.

Highlights

  • Visible by default, but starts collapsed so it stays out of the way

  • Toggle it with H

  • Buttons open/close windows or switch tabs

  • Buttons light up when that UI is already open/active

Main Menu: New Game overwrite confirmation

Starting a New Game is now safer if you already have a save.

Behavior

  • No save present → starts immediately (same as before)

I’ve got more in the works  I just came down with the flu, though. If all goes well, I’m hoping to ship another update in the next 2–3 days.

Thank you for playing and the support!
