Dear Community,

As we mentioned a month ago in this announcement, we've partnered up with Slitherine, who has now become the publisher of 'Space Station Designer'. The development of the game continues at a steady pace, and we're now focussing on the development of 'Phase III', which includes new game mechanics and content. We'll be sharing more details (and pretty screenshots) in an upcoming post.

As part of our partnership with Slitherine, we've decided to close the Steam Playtest this upcoming Sunday (October 20th). The Playtest will be replaced by a closed beta, which we're aiming to open sometime next month. If you're interested in helping us shape up the game, please register your interest here[www.slitherine.com].

From this point forward, official communications will be published by Slitherine, please know that the developers and producers will always be here for you on the Steam forums and on Discord[//]. Thank you for your support and engagement.

--Ignacio, Mauricio, and Nicolas (Polar Motion)

Hello Players,

We are incredibly excited to announce that Polar Motion and Slitherine are joining forces to elevate Space Station Designer to new heights. Our collaboration with Polar Motion is not a new one; we previously partnered on the successful release of Buzz Aldrin’s Space Program Manager, which garnered 75% positive reviews on Steam. This ongoing relationship reinforces our mutual commitment to delivering exceptional experiences.

Space Station Designer is a construction and management game where you are in charge of building and expanding a network of space stations in Earth and Lunar Orbit. Perform a wide range of activities such as recruiting and managing astronauts, building and installing modules, providing commercial services, manufacturing commercial goods, bringing space tourists, acquiring and commercializing industrial R&D technologies, leasing modules, and a lot more in order to make your network the best it can be.

We deeply believe in Polar Motion’s vision and are confident that together we can bring Space Station Designer to a whole new level of excellence, ensuring it becomes the ultimate space station building experience.

Marco Minoli, Slitherine’s Director of Publishing, stated, "Working on Polar Motion's new project is exciting and rewarding. It surely means that Buzz Aldrin's Space Program Manager cemented our relationship, but it's also a sign that Ignacio and his team are building something special we genuinely believe in."

Ignacio Liverotti, Lead Developer at Polar Motion, added, "Space Station Designer is our most ambitious project in terms of depth, and being able to partner with Slitherine means that we can rely on their commercial expertise and focus entirely on developing a rewarding experience that strikes the perfect balance between an enjoyable game and a well-researched, realistic simulation."
