What's Next?

  • The following updates need to fix the current issues with the new mission. I did a lot of tests but please let me know if you experience any crashes and/or performance issues (with ship config info!). I also ran out of time to add new music, if you know something that fits, let me know (can't pay more than a few dollars though)!
  • Now that the new mission is live, I finally have time to work on the backlog again (based on your feedback) -> E.g. next updates will include the promised improvements around the Time Survival XP globes.
  • After the next stabilization phase I'll continue to add new systems and smaller-scoped missions.

Happy Holidays!

I hope you are able to take a break and use that time to relax and do the things you love with the people you love!
