This build is only available to the closed group of alpha testers. If you're an alpha tester, run Steam to update to the latest version.

What's new?
Alpha 5 features comets, graphing tools, improved stellar flares, lighting falloff, volumetric atmospheres, and user interface improvements, as well as many other additions, tweaks, and bug fixes.

Alpha 5 has no collision fixes or changes. We expect to begin work on a complete revisit of collisions next week.

Is the dev team planning on upgrading to Unity 5? Perhaps it would allow for more capabilities.
