Oberhaching, Germany, May 27, 2022 - New Update for Starsand delivers fresh content and Steam Deck compatibility
Snowboarding is too cold? Surfing is too wet? Then grab your sandboard and race down the dunes. Just make sure you don't end up in a body of water inhabited by crocodiles.
Publisher Toplitz Productions and developer Tunnel Vision Studio present the May update for Starsand, adding a new fast-paced travel option to the survival adventure in a mysterious desert world. In addition to the downhill adrenaline rush there are further optimizations and content enhancements.
Architects, for example, will be happy about numerous new components such as double or hatch doors. Experimental players, on the other hand, will enjoy the support of multiple savegames, inviting them to take different actions or make alternative decisions during another run without having to forfeit their progress.
In addition, the May update ensures that mobile survivalists can also escape dangers on the Steam Deck with the Sandboard. Starsand has been rated "Verified for Steam Deck", ensuring it is fully compatible with Valve's popular mobile hardware.
More content updates are planned in the coming months. In the summer, for example, Starsand will surprise you with a new zone, a new enemy, a strange artifact and a new part of the story to reveal.
Starsand is in Early Access and currently available at a 25% discount for $14.99 / £11.61/ €12,59. Players can also purchase the Digital Supporters Pack, which grants access to digital goodies and adds exclusive content to the desert adventure.
