This week we've made some great progress, especially in the graphical design areas so we've got lots to show you this week. Perhaps most anticipated of all, the space flight gameplay itself giving an accurate look into what it will be like to experience playing RoVerse yourself.

Tackling the task of drawing the multitude of nebula types is Roulette, working as our lead artist and graphical designer on the project. She's only just started on the cloud nebulae yet has already drawn up several impressive cloud types for us to use in our generation of star system maps.

We've completed the art assets of some more station shop interfaces, such as the Equipment Dealer where you purchase and fit new weapons onto your ship, as well as upgrade your engine, shield, hull plating, radar systems and more:

And the Commodities Market, where you buy and sell trade goods, as well as unload mined ores for hard-earned credits:

Interior development of the station is progressing nicely, with a few tweaks to the layout of the Ship Dealer area and some promising additions to the bar area.

We fulfilled our plans for establishing greater organisational foundations for our development team with the introduction of Trello and GitLab pages where the RoVerse team can easily post notes on their progress as well as upload and backup their scripts as they work on them.

Last but far from least, footage of the latest version of our alpha space flight gameplay! It's still very much a work in progress and none of the special effects such as engine particles have been added yet but this should give you a clear concept of the potential it has. So please, come for a short flight with me...

Thank you all for stopping by and giving us your support! RoVerse is a non-profit community project so we need you to spread the word and help us gain more support for development. If you are a talented scripter and would like to join our development team, please send a PM to RoVerse_Official with showcases of your work.

See you in the RoVerse!
