Refit Complete

The website has been updated, and we’ve moved from GoDaddy to Netlify using Astro.

The old site was built on a website-builder platform that made custom changes difficult, so it has been retired and replaced with the new setup which allows for higher customization and is much faster to load.

A few things are new:

  • A screenshots page houses the old screenshot gallery covering the designers, the 3D hull viewer, and the strategic map. Click any image to view it full size.
  • Posts are now tagged as News (game and site status), Blog (world building and history), or Devlog (mechanics, design and development), and the news page can be filtered by type. Expect more devlogs as work continues.
  • An RSS feed, if you prefer to follow along in a feed reader.
  • A refreshed logo and a new illustration on the front page, with more art on the way.
  • New pages covering more information about the game and about the first public build are on the way.

The site also now asks before enabling any analytics, and there is a privacy policy describing exactly what is and is not collected.

Work continues on the game itself. The last week has seen a significant enhancement of the gun designer wrap up, with work now focusing for a week on enhancing the turret designer.

The first free public build is still planned for July 2026, and the Discord remains the best place to follow along day to day.
