Poly Universe (tuxdb.com)

Good morning everyone and Happy Sunday! I've just uploaded a small update with two important changes:

The UI for the Save and Load screens has been expanded, so if you gave your save files long, descriptive names they won't get cut off anymore. I hope. Unless you really wrote an entire essay in the save file's name, in which case maybe it will still get cut off?
Boats don't fly anymore. There had been an issue where a boat's bobbing motion would gradually be accumulated each time you saved and reloaded, until the boat was occupying a spot normally associated with satellites. This update should bring them back down to earth. =)

This past week I've also been getting back into practicing 3D modelling, with an eye towards improving the game's looks. To be honest, I'm not happy with how the current buildings are made, and I'll probably redraw all of them. But I'll be prioritizing the ones that are the most temp looking. Here's a test render I made while experimenting with what the Storage building might look like:

I'm looking to write some custom export scripts in Blender that will make it easy to add cosmetic variations to buildings, so no two will look exactly alike. This isn't in the game yet but hopefully next weekend we'll have some improved buildings playable. Thanks for playing! -Pouchmouse

A tiny band of settlers land on a remote planet. With you as their leader they will either build a new civilization, or be consumed by the foul creatures which inhabit the furthest reaches of space.

In Poly Universe worlds are tiny but numerous. Be strategic in laying out your cities to maximize the limited space available on each world. Balance industry and residential buildings to keep your citizens happy. But don't neglect the defenses necessary to keep them safe! Here in the outer edge of the known universe, danger can arrive at any moment, and when it does it arrives in full force.

Establishing trade routes between worlds will allow your planets to specialize and share resources, pushing the boundaries of your civilization even further outwards. But always keep an eye on the health, happiness, and education of your citizens -- with nowhere to receive reinforcements from, your citizens are ultimately your most valuable resource.
