Hi Captains!
Congratulations to the 2023 Yearly Tournament winning Fleets, with December’s winners now in the Hall of Fame!
Gold – Summit龍
Silver – 龍
Bronze – Trek Federation
1st place winners will be working with our design team to create a custom reward. The Top 3 Fleets have also won a limited edition Achievement and Pin to show off in-game:
This year, every player who ends the year in one of the top 100 Fleets will receive a free, limited-edition Beacon Skin! These designs are colorfully animated and will not be accessible in the future.
The winning Fleet for each division as determined by the yearly rankings will receive a Crowned version for 1st rank. Division D will receive the normal version for all ranks.
This year’s prizes also include new Achievements and Pins for our Top 100 ranking players during 2023.
Every player in the top 100 will receive a limited edition Achievement and in-game Pin. Ranks 1-3 will reward Gold, Silver, or Bronze – with a commemorative blue version for all other ranking players.
It’s great to see so many new faces, and last year’s contenders climbing the ranks. Keep an eye out for these Captains, you may want to steer clear!
Please note: This year’s list includes 107 players, with 24 players sharing rank 84.
This year's physical prize is experiencing delays during manufacture. However - we will be announcing the design as soon as possible, and would like to sincerely apologize for the delay.
Thank you to everyone who participated in 2023!
With January already well underway, it’s time to unveil the new Tournament Set Designs! This year, all Tournament equipment will feature Fire Resistance (FR) values as their Primary Stat, valued by Rarity tier.
The team has been working on some big plans for this year that we plan to add to the game soon, including a complete Crew Collection and Ability overhaul!
As we close in on 1.0, make sure to stay tuned so you don’t miss any announcements and previews of what else we have in store for the Galaxy.
Thank you to everyone who has made a purchase this year, helping to support continued development.
Exclusive Starbux Packs – with an increased reward value – are also available at pixelstarships.com for anyone experiencing Regional issues when trying to make a purchase in-game.

User Generated Content
Good news, Captains!
The new UGC system is now live, available when logged in to any PSS Account at pixelstarships.com. This system enables players to design, submit, and vote on Room Skin designs for consideration to be added to the game!
Submitting a design requires your account to be Level 4 or above, and have a registered & verified Email Address.
Content creators will receive a portion of Starbux for skins sold. Newly added UGC will be announced in-game when available.
This content is not scheduled, preventing any interruption to future content updates. Voting is not an indicator of a successful submission. Successful Skins will be available in the Room’s Skin Info Panel.
This system currently only supports Room Skins, but we plan to include more options in the future – including User Designed Stickers!
We would like to invite all users to provide feedback on this system, design, and submission process for any possible improvement. We will be posting an FAQ section and linking to a submission guide after reviewing player feedback.
Please Note: Offensive, copyrighted, or inflammatory designs will result in a user being unable to submit content in the future. Designs that do not fit the game (i.e. not being in pixel art format), may also result in UGC submissions being removed.
Recent Account Bans
We have recently updated anti-fraud detection and action systems, resulting in thousands of accounts being banned for breaching EULA.
While we cannot detail this process, it is important to note that significant evidence under stringent requirements has linked any bad actor to all owned/accessed PSS accounts.
Issuing False refunds on any platform will result in the account being permanently closed until addressed. There will be no exceptions. False/fraudulent refunds damage the game, player base, and our ability to continue development.
We will continue to be firm with our approach to ensure a fair and level playing field for legitimate players. Upholding fair play for users will continue to be our highest priority.
Please be careful, and never trust any user who is offering a cheaper alternative to in-game currency. Please report any of these users to us directly by email or in the Support Ticket section on the Official PSS Discord. Thank you to all of our players who have generously supported the continued development of the game via official channels.
Thank you for all of your provided feedback, leading to many of the fixes noted above. You can join these discussions in the Feedback section of our Official PSS Discord and subreddit.
