Have you played [i]Starcom: Unknown Space[/i]? I've created a quick survey to hear where you'd like me to prioritize my efforts for the next few updates:

Also, there's a new opt-in beta available, Fornax. This is not compatible with Draconis saves (the current default build), but if you're about to start a new game, you might want to consider switching to this branch. From early tester reports it is at least as stable and offers a number of improvements over Draconis.
Instructions for switching betas are here:

Some of the combined changes from Europa and Fornax:
[list]
[*] New mid-game content, anomalies, factions and side-quests
[*] Changes to skill checks and skill system
[*] Several new technologies & modules
[*] Player can rename crew
[*] Factions now gradually recover or lose resources over time to return to baseline
[*] Misc. changes to trade system
[*] Changes to NPC AIs
[*] Changes to thermal efficiency
[*] Fix for music volume issue
[*] Includes "built-in" save that allows skipping of the opening prologue story line for players who have already played a previous build
[*] Numerous typo and bug fixes
[/list]
Finally, I'd like to remind everyone that if you have questions or suggestions, a great place to post them is in the Steam discussion forum, which I read regularly. It's also where I post regular weekly progress updates:

There's also an official Starcom Discord, which I pop into from time to time. I don't always participate, but I do often read discussions there:

Thanks for reading and thanks for playing Starcom: Unknown Space!
