One popular request over the years has been firework launchers, which players will see during the 10th-anniversary celebrations. To this day, Gómez Villanueva said, balancing the requests of all players is a challenge - and that's after implementing generations of visual and gameplay improvements. Valentina Kerman, the first official female Kerbonaut, was introduced to the game in 2015. Chinese gamers also once got angry at the translation of a few characters in the language, 'review-bombing' the game in 2017, according to PC Gamer (opens in new tab). A 2017 release included localization for Spanish, Russian, Japanese and simplified Chinese. The first female Kerbonaut, Valentina Kerman, only came four years after the game's 2011 release. Development was not without its challenges, as the team needed to keep on top of community demands while keeping current with the Unity platform's requirements upon which Kerbal is built. The Kerbal franchise began as a passion project with a small team that was surprised at how quickly the space community enjoyed their work, said Nestor Gómez Villanueva, head of Kerbal production at multimedia company Squad. 'They're aware when things are going significantly awry, and it's fun to watch the way that they're reacting to that stuff.' 'For example, I think there's four levels of panic rates now, and that's indexed to how many G-forces they're experiencing and what sort of fight regime they're in,' Simpson added. With Kerbal Space Program 2, the team has extended 'the levels of panic,' Simpson said. 'We need the Kerbonauts there to remind you that failure is actually laudable and funny, and then you should be having fun blowing up your rockets - because that is incidentally how you're going to learn to achieve greater things in the game,' Nate Simpson, Kerbal Space Program 2's creative director at Intercept Games, told.
