We're not Trek, but we're trying our best to be a great single and MP starship simulation game, where managing your crew is as important as exploring the galaxy and meeting new species.

The underwear thing is a bug, go into customisation and it'll get rid of it :),

The last two internal updates have added White dwarfs and Planetary nebulae.

VR development is going well, and we've also added Xbox controller support for those who want it!

We have now started VR development.
We still have a way to go, but a concept build should be out in the next few weeks!

The drones are able to go out of the windows. We put them in there for anyone wanting to make videos :)

Thank you!

Bridge NPCs

Players can take on the Captain's role, use the holo-display to select targets, instruct the Science Officer to perform scans, and direct the Helmsperson for navigation.

This update also allows Science Officer players to remain at their station, a highly requested feature!

Sunday Funday and the Wednesday Stream - www.youtube.com/@StarshipSim...

This week, Dan created a new bridge ceiling with holo emitters.

He also added some visible light shafts, which you'll be able to see with volumetric fog enabled.

We've also added 248 country flag options for the uniforms!

We're looking at early access next year but if you go to the beta tab on the demo, you'll see our newest test beta which has everything that we have in game right now :)

Organic 3D Printers

We've built a very early version of our organic 3D printers for the VIP lounge kitchens. They are a very basic work in progress, but a bit of fun for now!

Thank you for the images, AyJayaredii and Xyon!

Just came across this little gem of a post-it note in Starship Simulator - also applies to people who work in an IT support role 😁

Interactive Holo-Display

The Holo Display is now interactable, allowing you to click celestial objects in 3D space to target them on sensors. The goal is for the Captain to mirror any bridge station to the Holo Display and issue crew commands via a context-aware 3D UI menu.

I haven't posted any updates for a little while because we're so close to our demo update, but as we're fixing a gazillion bugs, I'll post the Reddit link to them here ( too long to post here) 😊

You too! It was such a shame that it was so brief.

Internal Development Build 0.225.0.83 - So many wall panels.

• Updated the curved corner framework geometry at the fore of C Deck for better fit/layout.
• Added numerous new floor panels on C Deck.
• Added numerous new wall panels on C Deck.
• Started adding some doorframes around C Deck.

Plenty of time in a day, play them all! 😂

Yes, we haven't had a chance to sort the controllers out on the Steam deck yet but we have quite a few people who have worked it out. :)

Now that we're back from our two and a half week break, this update marks a return to our usual release cadence of 1-2 new development builds per week. It's now all hands on deck to get this demo update polished and out the door!
