The update expands the demo\u2019s creative tools while offering event-specific rewards for participating players.<\/p>\n

New Foundation Pieces and Exclusive Plaque<\/h4>\n

The latest demo version adds new wood and stone structural foundation parts, designed to provide greater stability and flexibility when constructing bases and airships.<\/p>\n

Players who access the demo during Steam Next Fest will unlock the Majestic Sea Whale commemorative plaque, an exclusive in-game cosmetic item recognizing participation during the festival period.<\/p>\n

Limited-Time Building Contest<\/h4>\n

Blue Isle Studios has also launched a community building contest tied to the demo update. Players can submit functional blueprints in three categories: Best Flying Vessel, Best Compact Design, and Best Creative Design.<\/p>\n

Winning entries will be converted into permanent in-game schematics in the full release, with creators credited and invited to participate in future playtests.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Single-player and co-op support for up to 10 players<\/li>\n

  • Character progression capped at level 20<\/li>\n
