Little Green Men Games have just released another beta update for Starpoint Gemini 2 addressing ”several bugs” but also tinker with the newly added wormholes. Their visuals and physics needed overhauling.
Sorry, but there’ll be no more docking on hostile stations and planets - they hate you, after all. A Smuggle Freelance mission is added, and heavy weapons can now force power drops.
