Ship dealer upgrades
The main feature of 0.225.5 is the overhaul of Ship Dealer menu. You now have the ability to trade in your current ship, which will allow you to buy new ships much sooner.
Small screen usability
Game was re-designed to work well on screens 720p resolution (1280x720). This includes changes to ship HUD and general rendering changes. I tested the game on 6" screen to make sure that it's fully playable and legible even on smallest screens.
