Hello There!

Long time no see. We have been a bit distant of late due to one of the developers going back to school and another getting a full time position. Despite these responsibilities know that our dedication to create the best damn Space Opera Simulator is not shaken. All developers are able to continue working on the project, though some schedule shifting will be in order (no more staying up to 5am anymore). Now on to the important stuff!

Community Discord Server

Big Owl Interactive has had its own discord server for a while, however it has mostly remained relegated to friends and family of our developers. We would like to foster the environment whereby Glorious Dawn will develop a community of its own and where people can talk about the game's development with other fans and communicate with the developers. As such we are going to be opening up the BOI discord server after a redesign of its roles, chats, and channels. We look forward to seeing you there!

Asteroid Belts, Dwarf Planets, Protoplanetary Disks OH  MY!

For the next stage of stellar system generation, we are focusing on the creation of disks of material. Whether it be asteroid belts or planetary rings, disks are a distinct structure of real life stellar systems that we want to represent as accurately as possible. I (Andrew) will be spending the next week working on prototypes of asteroid belts, planetary rings, protoplanetary disks, and dwarf planets (which will reside in asteroid belts).

Conclusion

Thanks for tuning in for this weeks update. Keep an eye out for when we open up the discord and make sure to hop in, we look forward to talking with all of you! Have a great week and remember that a still more Glorious Dawn awaits!
