After a great livestream on Monday, the team jumped right back in to prepare next week's update dubbed "Prelude", which introduces production fees and building degradation.

Prosperous Universe has never been more active than these past two weeks! What's more, the game is starting to get some attention on Twitch.

With a big release and an even bigger influx of new players, this week has been a massive milestone in Prosperous Universe's history. The team has been very busy beating the drum, making new FAQ, fixing bugs, and creating some exclusive behind the scenes content.

This week's issue of our development log will be slightly different from our usual ones. Obviously, everyone on the team has been super busy with the ramp-up to our free-to-play release on Friday. If you missed it, here's our release trailer once more:

But instead of talking about all the tasks involved in getting this release out the door, I thought it would be more interesting to write a few words about what free-to-play means to us and why we are doing it in the first place, especially because the term itself comes with a lot of baggage.

Today, we not only unveil the date and release notes of the upcoming Free to Play update, but we already take a peek at what's next content-wise: a number of big updates dubbed 'Expanse'!
