My Time at Sandrock Fully Released!
Howdy all Builders,
After a year and a half of Early Access, the moment has finally arrived –
Sandrock’s Full Release is here!
This is a very important moment for us here at Pathea Games. We’ve spend the last four years trying to make this into something we’d be proud of. We took everything we learned from My Time at Portia and tried to make them better. We took all the player feedback seriously and tried to incorporate as much of it as we can. In the end, we’re very happy with how My Time at Sandrock ended up. We’re happy with the story of redemption for Sandrock and how the player played a part in it. We’re happy with how all the characters have growth of their own. We’re happy that you’ll be able to run this game on a laptop at a stable framerate. Heck, we’re even happy with how multiplayer turned out, even after all the turns and twists in development. We got here because of the hard work of the development team, the massive help from the beta and KS players, and players like you, who were with us every step of the way! Thank you all and please enjoy your time at Sandrock! Below is the changelist:
