Dear Stormworkers,
Recently we celebrated the 2 year anniversary since we launched the Stormworks alpha and some of you began giving us feedback on what ultimately became this 2 year journey, with hundreds of patches and new features. One of our team made the epic Stormworks birthday cake and we took a moment to celebrate and remember the journey. To 2 years of Stormworks!
This week for the minor update we have added local voice chat! You can now talk to players nearby in multiplayer through the new in-game Steam voice chat feature.
This uses the Steam voice system, so the voice settings are part of the Steam settings rather than Stormworks.
If you have any ideas on where voice chat could go next in Stormworks, let us know on the issues tracker, in the comments, or chat about it on Discord.
Thanks again to everyone who has played Stormworks in the last 2 years and given feedback. We can't wait to share where this journey goes next!
Much love <3
The Stormworks Developers
