September Overhaul

As many of you all know, I've been working on Spacefarers! for a few years now. Fortunately, because it is not very popular, it means I can take my time and work on this at my own pace. Remember, that the team working on this game is a single man. All music, graphics, and code is done by yours truly. Anyways, here is your September overhaul!

Improved Universe Generation

As seen in the image above, the universe generation is improved. The color and size of the star systems reflects the color and size when you actually travel to it. It now requires fuel to travel from system to system, so make sure you are fueled up!

Improved Star System Generation

Rather than just a random assortment of planets, stars, and asteroids, now every star system is neatly and more accurately organized. Planets closer to the star are hotter and have different biomes than planets away from the star. Each star system typically has a space station along with it that the player can go visit.

Improved Space Stations

Space Stations contain a number of shops, workstations, and aliens. They are much larger than they were before. Come stop by today!

Improved Textures

Player and alien models have been improved to look better and enable the rendering of different armor and weapons. Not all aliens have been moved to the new model, but we have a good start. Speaking of this...

Player Customization

...From the very start of the game, the player may now customize their hair style and change the color of their hair, eyes, and skin using the mirror. This aims to make the game a more inclusive, enjoyable experience for all.

Spaceship Interior

There's new stuff inside your spaceship interior. If you have an old save, you are going to want to delete it to access this new stuff. The spaceship now spawns with, from left to right, a command console (access quests), iron crate (store stuff), fueler (fuel your ship), and crafting bench (craft stuff).

Quests

I've started work on the new quest system. Currently there are only four quests in the game, but as I figure out where I want to take the game and its story, I will create more quests.

Music

[linktr.ee]The music, for the most part, has been upgraded to use the Charles & Chill album by Charles A. Debczak. Click the image to check him out!

More

There's probably a load of other shit I forgot to mention. Go play the game for yourself, check it out, and feel free to contact me with any feedback that I can incorporate as I continue work on the game. Thank you!

Good evening.

The intro quest for the game is changed. This comes with new content, items, and achievements.

If you played the old intro quest and want to try the new one, go to %AppData%/Local/Spacefarers and delete or move the save and inventory files.

I apologize for the inconvenience by hope you enjoy the new patch!

I love and appreciate you all,

"The Charles"
