The economy system, reincarnation, ship design, and other systems are all complete; only the final combat system remains.

Compared with merely comparing battle reports, SSW is the only SLG where combat is “really” taking place. The remake will not only carry on this spirit but also greatly enhance it.

In the rebooted version, star systems will be laid out directly on the large map, and everyone will manage and fight on one seamlessly zoomable large map.

Bipolar jets ejected along the rotation axis and diffraction spikes caused by the telescope are invisible when viewed from a porthole.

Secondary images of accretion disks and gravitational lensing, and the photon ring of the event horizon

When backlit, Saturn’s rings are far from pure black—instead, they appear in their most magnificent form.

More extreme is the forward scattering of dust, which makes it glow, so it is almost only visible in backlight; under direct light it is practically invisible.

This is how Cassini captured those famous backlit images of Saturn, and incidentally photographed Earth between the ring gaps.

Rebuilding the universe…

The universe is an algorithm, a SSW universe with zero art resources

Looking at the planetary limb from orbit

There haven’t been any updates for a while, mainly because technology is advancing rapidly now. I rewrote half of the code completely from scratch.

I hope this will speed up later development. In short, the rewrite is accelerating, and a demo is expected early next year.

Today the website has been migrated to a new server. This may take a few days, during which there may be brief interruptions, inability to log in to accounts, and inability to access the forum.

The server migration is complete, and the new website is live. Please test if everything works.

Security Updates

The old server was outdated and insecure, so we decided to overhaul everything.

The website has been updated with a brand-new structure and is now mobile-friendly.

Please try logging in to your account in the game or on the website. The system will automatically update your account to the latest password encryption mechanism.

Forum Updates

Since Discuz has stopped maintenance and updates, we have switched to a modern forum.

Forum images, post ratings, points, and private messages have not been migrated. Old forum post links will no longer work.

The new forum uses persistent connections, so you no longer need to refresh posts.

Note: The earliest accounts that have not undergone account migration can now also log in to the forum (the version where the username is not an email). Logging in to the game still counts as a new account, but the forum account has been imported.
