Sagittarius A and the Devimons

New star system ready for those level 100 and above, I won't spoil it all, but has a few cool things to find including the new race: The Devimons (sponsored by lancelot) - a demonic themed race with some interesting and harsh weapons. Also some more stations with some new blueprints including the "Ultra Vortex Bomb", a very destructive large weapon...

Reminder - Starfighter: Disputed Galaxy included

I still get asked about this often. For fans of this older starfighter game, it is included in the extras menu (windows only for now) single player and local saving only

General news

I got round to updating the steam game description. When I released the game in early access, there was 550 equippable items, now we are up to 1447! thats loads, and some interesting ones in there, many have been suggested by players, so thank you for your continued ideas and feedback. I am still working on the new mission system, but its a bit of a slog, hopefully nearly there and after than I am hoping to put in a better system for playing co-op. I was thinking of basing it around what thye do in "Dying light" (great game btw) where you have a host and other players support them and do their missions
