Alpha Update 01 – Abydos Posted on Saturday December 1st, 2018 by Toinou84.

Hello everyone!

As we announced this summer, here is the Alpha update 01!

This update is rather major, as you will see in the release note at the end of this article.

We have also taken into consideration your feedback and suggestions sent to us by mail, Facebook or Discord. Thank you for your involvement.

But how do you download the update?

It couldn’t be easier!

If you have the launcher installed on your computer, just launch it and it will automatically download the last update.

If you do not have the launcher we invite you to go to the download section.

Will we finally be able to leave the Control Room?

Yes! You will finally be able to wander in the SGC and travel to Abydos.

Keep in mind that the rest of the SGC is under development.

It lacks textures, props, lighting isn’t finalised, etc ...

So, I will finally be able to go and sit in the General's chair!

Unfortunately this part of the SGC is not ready yet.

Will the MAC version be out someday?

You can now download the MAC version!

We hope that you will enjoy this update and that you will enjoy discovering our work.

If you feel like discussing the game, join our Discord!

Thank you for your support and encouragement.
