Lucid Sight has released a big update for its blockchain-powered galactic economy game Crypto Space Commander. The user interface has seen a gigantic overhaul, including the chat system. In addition the development team is teasing some upcoming features that are still disabled, including a guild system, craftable resource containers and an insurance system.
The update for Crypto Space Commander affects all kinds of elements in the game. The gameplay screen, station hangar and user profiles have been changed significantly.

As an extra there's a way to search for users
Depending on the start system where a player is, player versus player combat is allowed or not. Three star systems are labeled as neutral areas. Upon entering for example 43 Beta Comae Berencies all Commanders will be warned to disengage all hostile activity. After three warnings the GFI Security Fleet will show up to destroy or chase away the aggressor. However, in the Proxima star system they will only issue one warning to Commanders, while individual users get EMP'd.
Crypto Space Commander is still in its alpha phase. It took Lucid Sight one year to develop the game from version 0.1 to version 0.9. However, this space game is still far from finished. The studio is aware of some issues in the current build. For the full list of details in this update, take a look here.
