Officially Released!
I can’t thank enough all the of the Early Access players who helped shape the game and make it the best it could be. Your feedback and support have made this game far better than it could have been without you.
To celebrate the release of the game, the soundtrack is also now available on bandcamp
It will also be available as DLC on STEAM as soon as it makes its way through valves approval process (it could be 2 weeks).
What's next for Hyperspace Delivery Service?
Beyond fixing any bugs that popup upon this release, first up is a mobile port of the game. I'm also attempting to see if I can find a console maker willing to accept the game. As for new content, I'm going to see how the game does and what kind of community there may be and desire for more. I feel as though the game has reached a good balance of complex decisions with a simplistic gameplay loop. It's not intimidating yet provides flexibility and requires strategy to win.
Thank you everyone for your support and thanks for playing!

Official Release Date Announcement!
I've chosen an official date to exit early access and officially launch the game. The date is June 5th 2019! Just right around the corner!
There is still time for a few more bug fixes between now and then but that is the date. Now is the time I'm going to start sending out review codes for any press who needs time to play the game and write a review for the release.
Thanks to everyone who took part in the Early Access and all your comments helped to shape the game.
Thanks so much for playing!

-NEW control system. This means any previous customization's will be gone. I also reset the speed control for the ship to +,- instead of q,e. The reason for the change is to be able to support more controllers without issues.

-Other bug fixes.
Few, lots of stuff there. I plan on announcing a release date soon. At this point I need to be careful because if I release too close to the steam summer sale, I think that could be an issue. But if I release too soon, it won't give reviewers enough time to review the game. I could see saying 2nd week of June. Otherwise it'd be mid July. Anyone have any thoughts there?
Update Delayed
Unfortunately the current update is delayed due to sickness. I had to take a few days off and because of that I got behind on "day job" stuff which pushed the dev time of the game to next week. At this stage, I need to complete testing of the new update, and I have a little more art coming in that I'll now just wait for at the end of this coming week to incorporate. So now we're basically 2 weeks behind on this update.
The new update will be worth the wait though and with it the game should be complete!
While we wait, here's a sneak peak at 2 more portraits of bridge crew.
Thanks for playing!
Next update almost ready.
Here is a preview of some crew portraits. They will be used both in bridge views and in FPS levels.
I'm excited for this next update. There are a lot of fixes and usability improvements in it that I think should make the game ready for launch!
Thanks for playing!
