Expanse (Beta 1) | Software, Hardware and More

Beta 1 Compatible!

Expanse is a mod that is made to enhance the experience playing Software Inc. by adding new types of hardware and software to the game, improving existing software and adding more variety to things such as names and personalities. The new software types and software enhancements attempt to be faithful to the vanilla software style, as well as be fairly technically accurate and balanced.

Currently, this mod adds 16 brand new software and hardware types and reworks all 7 of the existing vanilla software, as well as adding 4 new add-ons, 8 new personalities, and 1 new contract work. It also adds a new Video specialization. The mod is always being updated and added on to, so leave your suggestions in the discussions!
