changedI've noticed that, as the releases for ISN have grown, so have the early bugs. I don't always catch every single bug that crops up in the code, so I've decided it's time to open up a testing program for Idle Space Navy releases. The Milestone Program is that program, and applications to be part of the 0.11 Milestone Program are now open.
changedHow it works. Once applications close (at 10pm Pacific Time on 26 July 2024 , or a little under four and a half days from now), I will be selecting 3-5 applicants, sending them Discord invitations to the Phoenix Aura server as well as Steam access to the closed beta for ISN 0.11.0 - which will begin with the first Milestone build no later than 01 August 2024.
fixedMilestone builds will work on an incremental basis - all the bugs with the first feature set (Milestone Build 0) will be resolved in future Milestone Builds (Build 1, 2, 3, ...) before the next feature set is released to Milestone. I intend to release feature sets no less than once every ten days (ideally at least once a week), to ideally include 6-8 feature set releases before an ISN 0.11 public launch in late September.
changedThank you for all the feedback on the game so far - and I'm looking forward to the public feedback on 0.11 being more focused on the gameplay rather than on bugs I've accidentally left in the code!

How can I be a part of the 0.11 Milestone Program? If you haven't already, go to the application and complete it (it's short and should take 5 minutes at the absolute most). If you're selected, you'll receive information as indicated above, and if not, I'll still be sure to send you my thanks for applying. To make it easier, join the Phoenix Aura Discord and get your roles (including the Idle Space Navy role) so you're ready to receive the Milestone Program roles when they launch.
