Pytheas is a galactic exploration, vehicle based, construction game. It has been in development since December 2010. A fleet from Earth's Exploratory Force has gone missing; you are sent to find it. After finding the aptly named ship, Pytheas, you could return to earth, report the find, and let a collection of search and rescue efforts do the rest. However, realizing that is boring, you decide to scour the nearby star systems with your brand new, eerily empty inter-stellar mammoth. Pytheas gives players the tools to execute thier ideas without the limitations of a game engine designed with a different purpose in mind. Barriers that limit how you can play are removed to allow for more freedom.

I'll post a forum-friendly version of each news post in the forum.

I did post the update i promised yesterday but moddb hasn't been updated so it won't show up yet. If you want to check it out here is a link: Physics. Shields and Weapons Oh My! . From now on I'll post a copy there so it's easier to find.

On another note I am also going to keep a developer's log where I'll post details/images of WIP features and hopefully get some feedback. I'd like to get some opinions and suggestions. I know when I play games I always wish I could tell the developers my thoughts on improving the experience. Well, if anyone else ever feels the same, I'll definitely listen! When the game is finished, I'll make sure to put together an sdk. I've been setting everything up so it will be highly mod-able. Even the alpha will allow for a good deal of tinkering.
