v0.5 MEGA UPDATE

If the last couple updates have seemed a little sparse, it's because I've been working to implement a LOT of new features into Orbit: Satellite Defense, and this week they're all ready to go live AT ONCE! Now that I've delivered on all the Early Access goals for Orbit: Satellite Defense, I can announce that the 1.0 version of the game will launch March 26th, 2018! It'll mostly be bug-fixes and polish from this point on unless I get any suggestions for what you'd like to see in the game, so get in touch! Now is your best chance to grab Orbit: Satellite Defense at it's discounted Early Access price before the 1.0 launch of the game.
