Devs on a Boat, the developer of city-building strategy game Buoyancy , released a new update. It fixed tons of issues and made some changes to the game. The latest addition is the Hot Air balloon. It even gives plastic and unlucky corpses as part of the collectible resources.
The addition of more floating cities makes it worthwhile to explore. And don’t forget, two new languages are now supported: French and German. But the bug fixes completely removed Martin from the game.
