Um, we have to submit to Steam... For... Something, I can't remember what. It's what incurred the new account creation dialog changes as some of their feedback was on that.

I’ve finished up the T21 skill mission changes and they’re in testing. I’ve added a new prize for the end of the last Subspace mission and hope to finish testing the rest.


As far as I know when a mission is changed it reappears to anyone who did it before the change, will those of us who did the missions before be able to get this prize?

Aw, what the heck, I wanted to get in on the alcohol question! Well, I like a lot of American ales and porters and enjoy a good single malt scotch now and then, if anyone's asking. :P

Oh man, I like that commander look! Will the Armored Variant be blue like the other types? Also I am also curious about having to resubmit to steam... Does this mean it has been postponed for a long period of time? Other than that very nice update, I am impressed! :D

Question three from this dev meeting blog: http://www.starsonata.com/blog/weekly-d ... 24th-june/

I'm not sure what part of the process this is though, but we can set people as a dev on Steam and then give them a Steam client and they have access to the achievements and such forth. The achievement system doesn't actually rely on Steam at all, Steam is just a platform to show them off on. I believe this upcoming patch has all the Steam stuff in the client and it's toggled by some other filter (rather than being a separate client build) so we'd be able to make people Steam testers.

Unfortunately I'm not too clear on all of this, as it's mostly been handled by Jey (client, steam<->server communication and db stuff) and Ryan (web stuff, other stuff?). The only thing I can really give solid answers for is the achievement system, as that was my work.

^ Achievement ^

Yay for map + awesome bonus API :D:D:D

Nice ship btw, I wounder if making the norm map more bumpy would make it look better for the panels everywhere though + those detailed pipes (contain moon spice). <3

Ouzo is the best also, I do like New Castle Brown Beer mainly though. Jey a proper pirate with Rum yar! lol

Yes the Armored and Wrathful types look similar to how it was done with the other Kalthi ships I made for perilous perilous space, images of them are below:

I believe all the reward missions are repeatable, but I'll check and make sure that all the reworked rewards are obtainable. Ill I'll re the missions this week, and if I feel they've changed enough to warrant redoing them, I'll make them available to redo for people who've already completed them.

Me likely Wrathful Commander. Either way it's still a travelship until it gets decent stats.

Ouzo?!?!?!

The first and last time I drank that, me and a friend were playing Wii games and drinking it. That shit tasted even worse the more inebriated we got... She was a trooper though lmao
