Características actuales del juego

Gráficos

• Reflexión especular, emisividad y daños texturizables (texturas dañadas que aparecen gradualmente mientras la nave recibe daños)
• Texturas de detalles (texturas con patrones repetitivos que agregan detalle fino a la superficie de la nave)
• Planetas con atmósferas tridimensionales (?)
• Animación básica de modelos tridimensionales (cuadro por cuadro)
• Escapes animados de los propulsores
• "Chispas" (sistemas de partículas) para naves dañadas
• Escudos que destellan al ser golpeados

Sonido

• Sonido tridimensional posicional (openAL)
• Música sensible al contexto

Python (universo dinámico)

• El universo simulado cambia durante el juego, con la guerra causando pérdidas y ganancias de territorio y naves, todo almacenado en forma persistente.
• Noticias y eventos reales que reflejan los acontecimientos simulados, para que el jugador pueda seguir el estado del universo
• Las acciones del jugador sí afectan al universo, y también eso se reporta en las noticias
• Misiones generadas aleatoriamente de acuerdo a los que sucede alrededor tuyo

Python (bases)

• Bases bidimencionales interactivas, de tipo "apuntar y cliquear"

Python (campañas)

• Sistema de campaña completamente programable, posibilitando historias lineales (y no tan lineales)

Interfaz de usuario en las bases

• La interfaz de usuario en la base permite ver las noticias, estadísticas de la nave, comprar nuevas naves, mejoras o artículos comercializables

Computadora de abordo

• Muestra información sobre la relación con las diferentes facciones, estadísticas de la nave, y permite trazar rutas de vuelo a través de la galaxia

Simulación de vuelo

• Modelo completamente newtoniano (con un poco de relatividad arrojado a la mezcla), compensado por un computador de navegación para permitir la tradicional navegación estilo avión caza.
