Hello
We noticed that many negative review have the same reason. People encountering a bug \ flaw in tutorial and abandoned the game at this step. So people even cant see a amount of features which exist in the game.
Of course, tutorial was still broken after 0.86, and that is not good. But even before that, when tutorial was not broken, still, many people had many issues with tutorial.
Overall, seems like we are underestimated an importance of tutorial, especially for such a complex game like Celestial Command, even during Early Access stage.
Tutorial, it is a first what meets the new users during first launch of the game. It should be nice and clean, and it should show the user all the main aspect of the game.
So we completely redesigned a tutorial!
Currently consist of only 2 stages, but soon we will add more.
Division on the stages is a good approach. So if tutorial will be broken due significant changes in game mechanics, we will redesign only broken stages, not entire tutorial.
Note: New tutorial temporary not available for localizations. If tutorial have flaws and should be redesigned, we want to redesign it first, so efforts of localizations will not be wasted.
Also we added another little feature to the main menu
On this timeline, you may see all a blog posts from our development blog. We thing it is important feature for people who are thinking that we did nothing during 4 years of development.
So here you may see an indicator of change logs (blue) and important posts (orange), and overall it will show how active development is.
What about capital ships which was announced in previous post. Don't worry, this is a big task, we need to add many new modules, so we decided to work on it "on background". Smaller updates also will be released during this process. Besides that, we are discovered a new, super amazing technique of 3D modeling, which should make new modules even better. We will show it soon.
CHANGE LOG
Improvements
- Completely redesigned tutorial. Now the game should be much more friendly for new users
- Added a "timeline of blog posts" in the main menu, which shows the development of the game. And also we fixed all broken images in our blog!
- Now when you launch the game or exit from the game, there will be smooth to\from black screen transition, which looks nice
- New "Loading" label when you are starting a game
- Tutorial completely fixed

We want to show how games about space actually should look, without silly vacuum friction and the maximum speed limit. As in the real world, everything in this game is in continuous motion in orbit.
Realistic Orbital Mechanic
This game is not about silly vacuum friction and maximum speed limitation. It is about real physics and orbital mechanics like in the real world! Get to know with orbital maneuvering, launching satellites and protecting planets from asteroids.
Fully customizable Ships
You can build your own ship part by part. Each part of the ship is individual, it has own functions and parameters. Therefore, abilities of your ship are completely dependent on the modules from which it is assembled. You can build small explorers, large industrial ships, carriers, defence satellites or whatever you want.
Ship Management
All resources of the ship are limited. Including fuel, energy, ammo and parts for repair, so store them and use them wisely.
Command a Fleet
You are not bound to the single ship. You can build as many ships and space stations as you want. And you can switch between them anytime.
Seamless Star System
Explore a procedural world filled with planets, asteroids, space stations and other fun stuff. The world of the game is completely seamless, you can zoom out from your ship to the whole star system.
Gather Resources
Survey asteroids for useful resources, extract it from planets or salvage wreckage of defeated enemies.
Multistage Production System
The extraction of raw materials is not enough to build a new ship. You need to process raw materials in special facilities to produce parts that are required to construct ship's modules.
Fight the Enemy
Build various types of devices to fight against enemies. Cannons, lasers, rockets, shields and other useful devices.
There you can explore the procedural world, find the resources, build any type of ships or space stations which you want, command your fleet and fight with enemies.
The game is 2D, so it is pretty easy and fun to play, but we implemented unique graphic style, which allows it to look like 3D with modern lighting and effects.
Also, the game has now been in active development, so if you are interested, check out our development blog for new features and future plans.
