Endless Sky High DPI

Explore other star systems. Earn money by trading, carrying passengers, or completing missions. Use your earnings to buy a better ship or to upgrade the weapons and engines on your current one. Blow up pirates. Take sides in a civil war. Or leave human space behind and hope to find some friendly aliens whose culture is more civilized than your own...
 Endless Sky is a sandbox-style space exploration game similar to Elite, Escape Velocity, or Star Control. You start out as the captain of a tiny spaceship and can choose what to do from there. The game includes a major plot line and many minor missions, but you can choose whether you want to play through the plot or strike out on your own as a merchant or bounty hunter or explorer.

Endless Sky

This is a stable release, focused on fixing bugs and making some other small improvements.
 These changes include:
 <ul>
 <li>The Gatling Turret and Javelin Turret now each require one crew member.</li>
 <li>The timer ship in "Sad Archie" has been given the "ramming" personality to improve its consistency.</li>
 <li>Animated ship and planet sprites are now correctly rendered in the hail panel instead of not being rendered at all or being rendered at a high frame rate.</li>
 <li>Gave the stock Dreadnought its fourth Torpedo Launcher back that it had lost in a previous release to make room for a bigger battery; it didn't need the bigger battery.</li>
 </ul>
 There's much more in the changelog!
 Special thanks to the 13 people who contributed to this release!

This is an unstable release, containing big changes that may introduce new bugs.
 This update turns its focus back to human space, bringing with it improvements and expansions of both piracy and mining gameplay, as well as continuing the trend of UI and UX improvements.
 Some other major changes and additions are:
 <ul>
 <li>Expanded the mechanics behind asteroid mining, including the addition of mining lasers that increase the yield of asteroids, tractor beams that pull ores toward your ship, dedicated mining ships in human space, and a new mission in the Sparrow introduction that goes over the basics of asteroid mining.</li>
 <li>Added a small pirate region to the south, home to the remnants of a collapsed government: the Confederated Councils of the Outer Rim. Includes the addition of various new pirate ships and weapons. This is the first of a number of planned expansions to pirate content and gameplay, with the goal of making it so that playing as a pirate is a more viable option. Stay tuned for more in future updates.</li>
 <li>You can now review past hails and status messages by opening the messages log panel, default "/".</li>
 <li>Lowered the brightness of the center of the galaxy sprite to make the system names in the galaxy's core more readable.</li>
 <li>Plugins can now customize the services that a spaceport offers, and even the name that appears on the spaceport button.</li>
 <li>The state of your capslock key is now tied to the state of fast-forward in the game if your capslock key is bound to your fast-forward control. This means that toggling your capslock key even when the game window is not in focus will also toggle the game's fast-forward.</li>
 <li>The list of plugins and the selected plugin description in the plugins panel can now scroll, instead of causing too many plugins or verbose descriptions to overflow the menu.</li>
 </ul>
 Some notable bug fixes are:
 <ul>
 <li>Planetary security will now properly scan illegal goods in your fleet's cargo. Previously, only illegal installed outfits could be scanned.</li>
 <li>Improved the collision detection of flotsam, preventing cases where flying over a flotsam at high velocity could cause it to phase through your ship and not be collected.</li>
 <li>Various fixes to missions in the Coalition intro storylines.</li>
 </ul>

This is an unstable release, containing big changes that may introduce new bugs.
 The biggest change is the addition of over 50 new missions in the Coalition as part of the introductions to the Heliarch and Lunarium campaigns. Through these, you can unlock access to either some of the Heliarch weapons, or some new outfits for the Lunarium to aid in their subversive efforts.
 Some other major new changes are:
 <ul>
 <li>Flattened the thrust scaling of sets of engines as you get bigger engines in a set. Smaller ships have received a significant max speed and acceleration buff, while larger ships have been unchanged or slightly nerfed.</li>
 <li>The Unfettered Solifuge and Violin Spider are now added to the Unfettered shipyards.</li>
 <li>Ships can now be given display names for their model name.</li>
 <li>Plugins can now have a "plugin.txt" metadata file in their root folder that specifies the name of the plugin and its description as shown in the plugins menu in game.</li>
 <li>Governments can now define travel restrictions that prevent their fleets from traveling to or from systems or planets that match the restrictions.</li>
 <li>Various UI/UX improvements.</li>
 </ul>
 Some notable bug fixes include:
 <ul>
 <li>Contacting the Korath Exiles during the Wanderer campaign can now properly be deferred and reoffered instead of deferring the mission effectively declining it and locking you out of the rest of the campaign.</li>
 <li>Using hotkeys to search for the nearest asteroid no longer crashes the game.</li>
 <li>The shipyard and outfitter mission offer location tags will now properly write to the save file.</li>
 <li>Trailing whitespace in hails no longer causes hails to overlap with one another.</li>
 <li>The "Remnant: Expanded Horizons Astral job" job will no longer select the "Deep Space" systems, which are unreachable, as waypoints.</li>
 </ul>
