To set it apart from the myriad other titles in the survival crafting genre, Grounded has the unusual setting of a suburban backyard in a Honey, I Shrunk The Kids scenario where shrunk kids fend off spiders and mosquitos, crafting gear out of ant carcasses and drinking from water droplets. With such an impressive background in RPGs few would expect Obsidian to stake a claim in the survival crafting genre, but Grounded has been a welcome surprise. Grounded's developer Obsidian Entertainment is renowned for its catalog of critically acclaimed titles like Fallout: New Vegas, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2, South Park: The Stick of Truth, and countless others. This update will help with traversal through Grounded's environments thanks to zip line ascension, while more inventory space and greatly improved base-building features should smooth out the survival experience.

Grounded has just released its 1.1 update on the public test server so that players can work out the bugs before the patch goes live before the end of the year.
