Hi,
1.00 DEV has been distributed in the beta channel. First round of issues fixed already. Thanks to Ryuke, Sadik, Sean MacDonald and kicks6666 for early feedback.
Now I'll get to NSFW & Story. Might be able to make some spin off wallpaper in the process :) which are less boring than code

Hi,
today I finished integration of T'Ris into the Mess Room and some basic interactions so I can get a playable V1.00 DEV version to the Beta Channel later today. The DEV Version will have

Hi,
today I compiled the V0.9c Official Patreon Release. After testing the newer CRQ I will publish it early tomorrow 1st Sep in time for the weekend :)
As to V1.00DEV, I integrated the Mess Hall today, made the Replicator and a few cocktails that can be integrated into the Gameplay. They could be...

Hi,
today I integrated the new ship and player base locations into 1.00DEV. Regarding the Mess Room I decided against "tacking on" a lazy sign in the hallway and implemented an entire new ship deck (Deck Green / 3). Ample space for new passengers :)
To go along with that, I had to rewrite the entire turbolift rout...

Hi,
I have by now mostly finished the V1.00 Player Base mechanics and am working on the other locations (screenshot is the Voron Station, a bit Tron-Like, EDIT: Updated with better lighting) while in parallel collecting feedback on V0.90 early access.
Tomorrow I'll finish integrating the minor reported issues int...
Hi,
today I progressed a bit with V1.00 DEV, with implementing the warehouse on your player base. You can stock up to 1,000 t of goods there and transfer them to and from your ship.
I also implemented the starting rooms for the base and navigation between them (Entrance/Trophy Hall, Warehouse, Trade Dock).
N...

Hi,
after a detour for bug hunting in V0.9 EA2 (see separate post) I continued with the revised sandbox state machine, which switches between interior <-> planet surfaces <-> space locations.
Switching seems to work (not full migrated everything yet). I can approach Tenaris, confirm "Land on Base...

Hi,
today I don't have a nice wallpaper or NSFW screenshot but rather a post from the depths of SW design.
As you might remember, for V1.00 the player base should be one major element. While thinking about it I noticed that my lazy implementation of the current room-to-room or room-to-space sandbox comes back to b...

Hi,
as it is not possible to pin posts in Patreon, I'll summarize the latest Release Info every now and again for quick reference. I'll tag these posts with 'Release Schedule' for quicker search.
Hi,
Please find the Phase 2 Early Access links for version V0.9b below one day ahead of schedule. Thanks to all the testers of Early Access 1 to make this possible!
Enjoy and Thank You For Your Support!
========= BUGFIX UPDATE / COMPATIBLE / USE THIS =============
Version 0.9_EA2b
Hi,
today I made the first version of the Mess Hall. Even added a nook for the Replicator, which might become relevant to create all those cocktails :)
As to disciplining, Mess Hall might be relevant. I thought if you had a drink or two too many with members of the crew they might show up late for morning muster,...
Hi,
I sorted through all the collected items and not-yet implemented features and made a first Plan for V0.10 considering a bunch of NSFW items long overdue.

Hi,
as the work on that module progressed quicker than I thought, I finished the Bot-Analyzer upstream in V0.10 today (mostly). The statistical data has been in the code for some time, so it was only a matter of visualization.
Hi,
tomorrow I will finish integrating all Early Access 1 Issues / Fixes into Early Access 2.
For players playing Early Access one at the moment an important information:
Hi,
considering there's a lot of wealthy players I thought a base might be nice. I also received that idea from quite a few players now. Played a bit around with isometric elements today in Blender.
Here's the outline
Hi,
Today only a boring list to begin with :)
V0.90 early access is running reasonably stable. There are a bunch of minor / avoidable issues which all can be fixed save game compatible in Early Access 2 (see list of EA1 issues above).
Those who are marked "Backmerge" are already done upstream in V0.10 and ne...

Hi,
as there have been a bunch of questions regarding bot creation, I was thinking about adding a "Bot Analyzer" feature to the lab. You can see a mockup in the image. Please ignore the actual values, they are just for illustration.

Hi, here is the (updated) release notes post for V0.9c ( = Official Patreon Release).
Thanks to all the Beta & Early access Players for finding and putting up with issues.
Hi,
regarding V090 BETA there was a last minute major issue uncovered. I fixed it yesterday and tested the changes today. Everything seems ok, so I packaged the V090 Early Access 1 distribution just now.
After some integration testing today the links will go out to
Hi,
first of all a big thanks to everyone heading over to itch.io and giving SJX a very positive rating! This helps greatly to keep the Edge-lords in these forums at bay :)

Hi,
since yesterday the BETA is running. The main quest was completely playable from zero with no blocks or logical issues! Big thanks to feedback on BETA to the testers so far!
There are a few minor issues (4 so far) to straighten out but it looks good for an on time release of VIP Early Access on 18th and ...

Hi,
as some of you might know I have an official developer page over at itch.io. There the public versions of Space Journey X and Princess And The Tower can be downloaded.
If you happen to have an itch.io account anyway and enjoy playing Space Journey X, it would be great if you could leave a (hopefully 5 star) ra...

Hi,
today the Beta was finished just in time. The next two or three days the Beta Testers have the opportunity to have a look at the version and I'll do a full play through before the Early Access on 18th.
Hopefully no major issue will show up. I changed a bunch of low level design issues (weird and unnecessary re...

V0.9 Major New Features
Hi,
today I integrated a bunch of NSFW scenes and side activities (Audra gets a tour of the ship, Nimhe walks, TypeJ program extension, ...).
You can see a minor spoiler in the screen shot above. The cargo voucher system also enables me now to unlock bonus features, such as e.g. a Type-j program extension Nimhe pr...
