Community Highlights - Beta Weekend Two


Discord Member: Fantomas

Hello, Prospectors!



Thank you for playing our second Beta Weekend! Was it really a weekend when it was four days long? ;-) We felt we owed it to the community to extend this beta after the “hug of death” many of you experienced, and we’re happy to hear you certainly made the most of it!

Storms were out in full force but you prevailed and created some amazingly intricate structures. The fun and mayhem that lightning brought to your gameplay was apparent, especially when your masterpieces went up in flames (we totally saw this coming!). Many of you also chose the blaze of glory approach and torched your own buildings at the end of the weekend.

This time we decided to create hotfixes over the weekend to ensure your gameplay experience was as optimal as it could be. If it wasn’t for your honest and well structured feedback, we wouldn’t have been able to recognize and achieve these improvements as much as we did. So, shout out to you! And also shout out to Icarus’s warm, fuzzy and cuddly bears.

Don’t forget you can provide us feedback in between Beta Weekends! This site is up 24/7 so head on over to icarus.featureupvote.com to upvote a current ticket or create your own.

We’ve loved seeing our community tag us @survievicarus and use our hashtag #surviveicarus - it’s made it so much easier to see your content so we can repost or give it a like. Good job!!

There will be more chances to win prizes with another gleam competition planned for our community focused Beta Weekend in November.

Prospectors, you will need to utilize all the skills you’ve learned this far to ensure your safety across the Arctic biome. Prepare for the COLD! Blizzards, wolves and polar bears could create a very fine line between you and imminent death, so good luck!
