It occurred to me as I'm working on the game... this is early access! Let's give them what I've got so far. Take in mind that this is a stepping stone and still early access. I'm still missing assets and other things I want to add. Post any bugs in the forum (or improvement suggestions) so I can fix them. Post your ship ideas in the forum sticky so that I can add them to the game. This is the long list of changes: [img]http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/26346321/7404c7fb14adbbbc4c4a5cdece009a7c97d1932e.gif[/img] [h1]Content Updates:[/h1] [list] [*][b]New Save System[/b] – Save into 9 slots that take screenshots of your progression.

I think I have fixed this problem, but I wanted to tell you just in case.[b]Hit Alt Enter to go to full screen.[/b] Solution – hit alt + enter * Clicking too fast before a dialogue choice appears will sometimes freeze conversations. * Chapter 2 (rare bug) destroying Dreadlords fleet sometimes does not trigger the next story progression. Solution – Load the game
