To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

The game is now out of early access https://store.steampowered.com/news/?appids=876320 and on sale until the 12 June.
Going to get a copy of this as I like the 8/16 bit feel from it and as I have been playing around with Whales Voyage 2, I like to see how much the Wolfenstein 3d bit adds to the game.
It's a FTL clone, some how this point seems to have escaped me when I first looked at the game, as I thought it was more open world.
Not played much sofar but I would have liked the ability to see my crew stats and I wish they had used a separate screen for the space combat.
