Hey y’all, it’s been ages since I did one of these, so there’s a veritable ton to go through, so let’s just get right to it:
- There are some new preliminary screen shots of Notch’s 0x10c over at VG247 that look very Minecraftian.
- There’s a new dev update video of the-possible–fan-based-follow-up-to-Jumpgate-that-I-just-found-out-about called Borderspace, which looks very cool. I’ll also embed the video after the cut.
- There’s an art update for the Kickstarted fleet combat game Vigrior : Maneuver Warfare that looks pretty slick.
- The popular indie title Lunar Flight is now available on Steam for those folks waiting to get it through that platform.
- Over on the Blockade Runner website, they’ve released version 0.54.0 to their paying supporters.
- There’s an April update for backers of StarDrive that discusses how funds were used in awesome new ways, so it’s worth reading if you’re a backer.

- The Star Conflict site has been updated with new screenshots as well as new info on one of the systems in the game, Pandora.
- According to the Beyond Beyaan blog, there’s a new version that fixes installation problems and more.
- A demo of the upcoming Freelancer mod that many of us have been waiting a long time for, Freeworlds: Tides of War, has been released! Hopefully that means the full mod will be released soon!
- Speaking of mods, thanks to “doctorfrog” for letting me know that a new beta version of the Unstable Space add-on for the Torn Stars mod for Independence War 2: Edge of Chaos has been released. *catches breath* I need to try this one out soon.
- The Naev development blarg has been updated with a story covering the end of the 0.5 release cycle, talking about how, after 0.5.3 , they’ll be jumping to version 0.6. They also have a post on afterburners.
- Our buddy DarkOne has a review of Wing Commander Saga: The Darkest Dawn over on SpaceSimCentral.
- Both Sword of the Stars II: Lords of Winter, Kerbal Space Program and Space Pirates and Zombies got updates recently.
- The folks at RTS Guru have a teaser trailer for Stellar Impact, which I’ll embed after the cut.
