Repeated intro
Hello everyone. January 31st marks the 1 year anniversary of Solar Nations 2's early access release, I originally intended to put this announcement out then, but a few new bugs came up that I needed to fix before making a patch. Anyway, I would like to demonstrate how far Solar Nations 2 has come in just 1 year by comparing the current version to the one put out on early access release 1 year ago:

changedI think it is safe to say the game has come a long way since January 2025. Aside from the obvious graphical elements which have significantly improved, the game plays in all respects better than its previous incarnation, which should continue in 2026.
addedPromoted & Oppressed CulturesYou can now use promoted and oppressed cultures. Promoted cultures act like accepted cultures but you can only choose a certain amount of them, and you can pick any culture to promote. Oppressed cultures are cultures you can target with specific, more sinister removal tactics if you want to.
addedNew Planet & System GUIWhen hovering over a world you can now wait a little bit to see more about it and its children. This GUI allows for the structure of a star system to be more easily perceived without needing to navigate to it via the camera. It is also possible to select & move units from this GUI so you can have better control of larger empires & wars.
