Here we go! A new update for you.
Mostly invisible… hopefully.
Category: Reports & Specials
Status Reports sum up the progress made in developing our online game, Tau Station. Since the start of the Closed Alpha, update changelogs list all changes to the prior game version. Furthermore, this blog section contains Special Episodes, which are articles about extraordinary topics. We use these posts to share very special insights with you, in addition to our regular topics. Special Episodes can be recaps about events such as trade fairs, panel talks, or even some personal words from team members.
Update Changelog 2020-Jun-09
Four new missions await, along with artwork for archive entries, 27 mission givers, and 17 weapons. The storage management feature received a speed boost and our team improved some aspects of messaging. Finally, many small text improvements are also included in this latest game update!
Citizen Council: Meeting Report 205.57 GCT
We’ve had another great Citizen Council meeting.
For those not familiar with the Citizen Council, Tau Station collaborates directly with our citizens (players). The citizens elect council members to represent them and they have regular video meetings with us to share citizen feedback. The council members also have access to a test server to help preview upcoming features. This has been invaluable in terms of building great communication between the development team and the players.

Update Changelog 2020-May-01
Let’s start a new old-earth month with a content update! Two new missions are now available and an existing one has been reactivated for you. The CORETECHS received several content updates, such as information about genotype food, companies and social events. The team processed a bunch of Community reports (thanks), genotype food images now indicate who benefits from a bonus. Several improvements have been applied, and you’re now able to decline sent items from any Shipping Bay. The shop is now open.
Update Changelog 2020-Mar-31
Today is a major game update in terms of volume of changes and rather critical for the future of Tau Station. With any luck, you will not realize it and it would mean that we are all set for the next step. Therefore, let’s hope you do not see what has changed— for once we will not detail it here. Except for the 41 items who now have their own artwork.
We are not many, we are one!
These days, we see the planet is far smaller than before. We all need to take care of each other, therefore we share some useful information from the World Health Organisation, as well as special gift to share some joy and escape with all of you, no matter where you’re living. It’s one world, take care everyone!
Update Changelog 2020-Feb-28
The new game update contains several detailed improvements for combat and a solution to better recognize if your leave the safety of your hotel room, as discussed with the Citizen Council. Some of your requests and suggestions have been implemented for Private Ships, and—we’re sorry for that—you cannot find out in a sneaky way anymore if a Citizen is inside a Hotel Room or Private Ship anymore. Read on to see all details.

2020, Moving Forward
This year, while full of excitement and progress, has, also, been particularly painful, both on a personal as well as a professional level. As a team, we went through personal losses, separations, a huge health scare for our dear one, and money issues. A lot of money issues…
One would say that we experienced life in full force during 2019.
However, these storms did not take away the dream. They did not take away the commitment. If anything, they strengthened our resolve! Our passion in bringing to life this thing that we have grown to love more each and every day.
Together we will bring Tau Station to life.
Together we are moving forward, sometimes not as fast as one could wish for, but still making very important progress.
Therefore, together let’s look at what’s coming next first semester of 2020.
Update Changelog 2019-Dec-23
Before the “year 2019” ends, we’re happy to share another game update with you. The Citizen Council member page now shows your new Community representatives. Feature wise, there are new courses, private ships can now have storage lockers installed, several improvements have been added for combat and Syndicate campaigns, and a batch of new items extends the campaign reward pool.
