We are getting to a point where we are testing more of our long term collaborative sandbox features Tomorrows playtest will be 12 hour long (with a few restarts in between)

We ran into a bug causing the server to crash. Working hard to fixing this asap and hoping to go live at 2pm GMT! 💪

Hey all, we're currently in the thick of our Project Existence Testing Environment (PETE!) playtest. If you'd like to learn more (and join in), grab a quick update at the link below and hop in with us. The more players and feedback the better! tinyurl.com/PETEplaytest

Its such a romantic idea to explore the vast arctic wilderness in search for the prefect spot, rich with resources for a camp. Todays playtest has not been without its technical difficulties😓 But its definitely shaping up to becoming something truly special

We had a bunch of server reboots, a handful of database resets and quite a few bugs but in the end,the players completed the goal🥹 The Arctic Theory team has worked super hard towards this milestone so its very cool to see the players pulling this off and having fun!

We recently had our first 12-hour playtest, a big milestone for us! It gave us lots of great insights and data thanks to our helpful participants. We hope even more of you join us for future events! Speaking of, follow us on Discord for the latest: tinyurl.com/DiscordPETE
