A lot of people were asking for a Kickstarter relaunch since we didn't get the 100% goal on the first try. And we hear you. We did some changes to the campaign and we're trying it again!

But we want to break the algorithm and fund it on the first 24 hours so the platform promotes our campaign even more, creating an amazing snow ball effect. And we might get all the stretch goals! Why not?

To achieve this, we need you to pledge on the first 24 hours of the campaign, starting tomorrow morning, 9am EST.

[www.playcosplayclub.com]Our studio is back to the Kickstarter! We just revealed our new crowdfunding project and we're hoping to have the same success that we had in 2013 with Chroma Squad. Do you remember the manager RPG about Power Rangers and TV Show?

“Getting back to the Kickstarter once again is not for the faint-hearted. Chroma Squad in 2013 was a huge undertaken, but it was a very successful one.” said Saulo Camarotti, the lead creator of the studio. “Today we’re getting back to crowdfunding, but we want to bring more experience and maturity to the project” he completes.

The new project is called Mahou Senshi Cosplay Club, where the studio is focusing in creating a story driven RPG with their very well-known twist of mixing realities of imagination and meta reference. This time a Magical Girl gets her power from starting a journey in becoming a Cosplayer, and the game will allow you to create costumes and fight in turn-based battles using the costumes you create.

The game features a complete RPG set in a cosplaying world. You’ll have the opportunity to explore events and exhibitions to participate in cosplaying contests. Through exploration, you will expand your inventory with new materials and design parts so you can be more creative on crafting new costumes.

We're looking for support to complete the game on Kickstarter and we've put some interesting options in the pledge list, such as buying access to an early playable build of the game, or even becoming an NPC cosplayer inside the game that looks just like you and would be wearing a nice cosplay of your choice.

Mahou Senshi Cosplay Club will be heading first to PC and Major Consoles, and it is expected to release in 2023 upon the success of the Kickstarter. If you want to check out their crowdfunding page, please go to http://www.playcosplayclub.com.

Hi everyone! Here are the patch notes for the version v0.8.01b4! The online multiplayer mode is now available for everyone who owns the game! As usual, items tagged as [COM] were changed based on community feedback.


[COM] Well, it took long enough, but we finally managed to get the online multiplayer in the same state as the local play. That is not to say it is perfect or totally free of bugs, but it is totally playable and it should be a great opportunity for those who never played Out of Space as it was intended to be played: cooperatively.

Friend invites on Steam are right around the corner, but not yet available. That means that if you want to play with friends, you must all be in the same region (settings) and try to go online at the same time. Having “best region” selected is not currently working for matchmaking. It should not be too tough now that not many of you will be playing at the same time, but we are sorry for this temporary inconvenience nonetheless. Go for it and tell us what you think!


[COM] As said in our community server, this was one of those features we always knew the game needed, but we only just got to a point in which it is possible to implement it. It’s supposed to be something pretty simple to understand: at the start, part of the content that was available in the game until the last update will be unavailable. It will all become available again once the players unlock achievements like playing some matches, recycling a given number of items or even winning a match without cooking anything.

We believe this will greatly improve the learning curve of the game, allowing players to be introduced to new items as they get more experienced with the game. Not to say some of the more challenging achievements that will encourage players to try to win matches using very odd and interesting strategies.


- Aliens AI reworked to behave more like it is trying to protect itself from the players and to have less predictable movements. They are also more responsive and active, to be more of a threat when left by themselves in rooms.

- Changes on how the music gets compressed, reducing the size of the game and optimizing the loading time for sound effects and music in general.

- The Recycler now has a queue of items and allow one player to throw items at it while another activates it at the turn handle.


Dog

Its AI got reworked to make him more efficient and more responsive:
- It no longer waits until getting into a room to start barking at aliens, meaning it will promptly stun any alien it finds along the way;
- It spends more energy while barking, but lasts twice as long while idly following the players;
- It will now prioritize barking at unstunned aliens instead of stun-locking the same alien until it runs out of energy;
- The Dog will always get its energy full when fed, regardless of the type of food you feed it or the amount of energy it had when it started eating. This avoids moments when the dog was fed a fruit but didn’t get back to the game after that;
- Using the ping now calls the Dog to help you, which is especially useful on multiplayer matches. This gives players more control over who the Dog will be following;


- The Dog is now more reliable and ignores aliens less frequently;
- Fixed tension levels, making the music adapt better in the game;
- Character models no longer clip inside the boxes on the character selection screen;
- Aliens no longer disappear after walking on the porch or close to its limits;
- The Bucket can no longer be cloned by interacting with the sink too fast and nor refills itself twice visually when placed in a sink or faucet;
- The positions of the items that are queued on the Recycler has been improved not to look as if they were floating above it;

Online
- The tables are now properly fixed on online games;
- Object physics no longer go crazy when used in the Recycler;
- Appliances no longer behave as if they were powerless when they are connected to an active energy socket. This fix will also reduce other syncing problems like when a pumpkin garden would produce fruits for one of the players.

Out of Space is now available in Early Access!

Our game is currently purchasable through Steam! Important to state that the game is fully playable, but still in development. This means that those who choose to get the game now will be joining us while we learn what the community likes and expects from the game and use that to make it better for everyone.

It's going to be great to have the game accessible for players outside our Discord Community as well! Open development has been our thing for a while and we can't wait to open it even more. Talking about the community, big thanks to all of the members who helped us so far! You rock, honestly.

If you are interested in joining us along this Early Access journey, you can get the game with 15% OFF on the link below:

Strategy co-op multiplayer game about living on a spaceship with your roommates. You'll need to generate resources, take care of a deadly alien infestation, upgrade your appliances and build your own sustainable space home. Living together is never easy, especially when you are in outer space!


Our process of developing games has always been very open to the community in the past. We usually show our games under development in more than 10 events throughout the year and we find that to be the best approach to making games. We want to make the game for the community, and instead of us trying to guess what you want, why not making it an open process?

Our project Out of Space has already benefited from the feedback of the community during its first versions. Since 2018 we're doing livestreams on Twitch/Youtube and keeping everyone engaged in our official Discord Server.

By releasing this game in Early Access, we hope to continue to grow our community and get more people involved in its development.

We plan to have it on Early Access throughout 2019, but we're open to extend it depending on the community feedback.”

We want that the final version of the game to give a sense of completion to the player, with missions, achievements and unlockables, a complete tutorial and the ability to play with your friends or anyone online. The main goal is to make a game interesting enough to keep you going back for more for every match. Right now, we have a fun and almost feature complete match, but we lack persistence and progression to enhance the game’s replayability.

Out of Space contains the most important features of the in-game match: The ability to buy and build new technology, the need for taking care of your stamina/fatigue and your hunger, the procedural level generation, the basic resources, batteries and organic materials, also the basic enemy system and AI. Also, right now, the game is only playable as local multiplayer or solo.

We plan to have the game during Early Access with a fixed discount of 15%. After that, the game will be launched with the full price.

Our plan is to make the community a big part of the development process so, every 2 weeks we will have the same cycle of:
- Gather and analyse all feedback and analytics from past cycle.
- Plan the current cycle of bug fixing, updates and features.
Inform the community on Discord and Steam Forums about the current cycle and upcoming features.
- Start production and continuously keep track of the community feedback.
- Every Thursday 4pm (EST), the dev team will do a live streaming about the upcoming changes (Twitch, Youtube and Steam)
- Launch a beta version to the most interested players, and then release the stable version to everyone else at the end of the cycle.
