Hi my name is Austin and I'm a RocketWerkz Employee!

Hey everyone!

Happy launch day! For those who don't know who I am, my name is Austin and I am Rocketwerkz's Environment Director.

I look forward to meeting more of our community and showing off future work!

p.s.

Feel free to ask me anything and I'll respond when I get the chance!

Thank you and all your coworkers so much! It’s already a lot of fun for how early it is and outside of the little friction some of us are having to get it to boot- once we’re in it’s buttery smooth. Is there a plan for KSA to have foliage or scatter like rocks with collision at some point?

I know this isn't your bailiwick since you are in the environment department, but I assume the ImGUI default skin is going to get a design pass at some point?

Not that I am complaining but it would be nice to see an actual skin for it.

Yeah Direct those Environments, show them who's boss.

It's still very early but as soon as there's more details to share about next steps for the environment, you'll be sure to know!

Yeah as previously mentioned, this is just the first release of KSA. The game will evolve over time and assumedly everything within the game will as well! I know that's a long winded way of not saying much but rest assured, the team is very passionate about these sorts of things and if it warrants it, you'll see change!

I'm pretty happy with it. If KSP2 had come out with something like this (warts and all), I would have be tickled to death -- the fact I can do maneuvers at 1600x speed shows the robustness of the underlying engine. It's something NEW. And that's exciting!

While it lacks any of the rocket/station/base-building aspects, it's a real good technical demo that shows the team has a clear vision on where they want the game to go.
