This a small release with just a few little changes, other than combining the online feedback and game server into a single executable (which should use less memory). The original plan was to put this out on the weekend, but then I realised the summer sale will start soon. It seemed best to put it out beforehand as people like to play the games they buy and I didn't want their first experience to be an offline server. The main point is that the bug list is again empty despite quite a bit of testing (with more to come). I feel fairly confident in the quality of the game (please let me know if you see any issues!). Also I have the outline of a marketing plan and it seems reasonable. Now I need to set a release date and start the marketing. Expect an announcement in a week or so! --- Current Version: 0.9.32 (21st June 2016) Known Issues: * Steam Overlay can sometimes cause some Macs to hang on startup - need to disable Overlay Immediate Roadmap: * Bugfixes/Balance * Release Plan 0.9.31 (10th June 2016) -> 0.9.32 (21st June 2016) * Stop target focus reticules from "sticking" * Stop crash when just launched drones fire on player in online games * Ensure target weapon hud selectors appear completely onscreen the first time they are displayed * Ensure "Can Target" line changes colour when game colours changed * Make Last Stand mission more difficult * Set waves "victory" to wave 15 (ie survive the first cycle) and add a repairer to the base * Change twitter/facebook icons colour on hover * Componentise server and combine with feedback

To defeat your enemies you need to devise a range of strategies to gain enough information to successfully shoot at them. All the while they are trying to do the same to you.
Space is big and empty. Finding something can be like looking for a needle in a haystack, but there is nowhere for the needle to hide. To stay concealed a ship needs to fade into the background as much as possible. Everything a ship does will signal its presence and increase the ability of those nearby to detect it. A big ship may blot out stars as it passes. Heat from engines can be detected against the cold of the void. Lasers can be traced back to their origin. Eventually as detection increases, a firing solution can be calculated so that a beam of coherent light a few millimeters in diameter can cross thousands of kilometers to strike an evasive enemy - hidden no longer!
