A long time has passed since the last new post. We’re not dead, we just haven’t had much to post about up until now. Now, all I need to say is that we have a new Beta available! Celestial Impact Beta 8 is out and can be found on the downloads page.
Some new features in Beta 8 are:
* New renderer, much faster than the previous.
* Linux and FreeBSD dedicated server support
* New game mode forge. Create maps of your own with your friends.
* Melee weapon
* Three new official servers located in the US
* New player model
* Lots of programming and bug fixes
For a full changelog see the forums.

Make sure your graphics card drivers are up-to-date!
Great to see all these new changes!
Going to be fun to try them out.
Nice to see a nice renderer with faster framerate, something lower-end computers suffered a bit from in the last version.
Wow, this game is way cool, i like the idea of the little planets, it makes you think twice about how the world works, like horizons, that we are on a curved surface. That sort of stuff.
Absolutely Incredible.
I think i should publish this at my website.
