| Had you thought I was doing nothing this weekend? You're wrong!
Multithreading resource loading/generating (number of threads is the number of cores minus one)
Updated the cache of galaxies models, they are now registered in the memory manager
Updated the cache of textures and models for ships and buildings, of ships and buildings, they are now registered in the memory manager
Supporting of the TIFF format for textures and screenshots
Supporting of sounds of WAV and OGG formats
Built-in music player for OGG music
The player requires a lot of work, it's a bit glitchy for now. Anyway, I already have about 220 Mb of soundtracks composed by various authors, especially for SE! A few more new soundtracks are coming. Also, sound support means that it will be possible to use nature sounds for planets and engine sounds for space ships. I'm looking for nice looping sound files that can be used here (either free or made especially for SE).
Edit: Just noticed the screens show a Betelgeuse system, and the player is playing a track named "Betelgeuse"

| Multi-million dollar game devs. Releases 1 patch every 2 months that fixes 4 bugs and typos.
Indie dev, one guy. Releases massive updates in an app that essentially revolutionizes generation and visualization of interplanetary, interstellar and intergalactic space.
Just shows time and time again that programming talent is what matters, not dev team size or careless money being thrown at the project. You could put the entire staff at Maxis to work on Spore 2, with infinite budget from EA, and i guarantee they would not have even half of what you have here in terms of an infinite beautiful space engine.

| Natural sounds when descending to planets??
Just... YES!!
That will surely break the static appearance of the whole program. I mean, when you go into a planet's atmosphere, it looks like a frozen picture or something like that, because there is nothing (apart from the movement of ship/camera) that suggest time passing by. But nature sounds like wind or something similar could make the experience much more realistic, because you will feel that you're in a real world, where things change! Amazing!

Its true what you say, but its is also true that bigger teams have less small bugs to deal in final releases. In my opinion, SpaceEnginer should put the projet inside the rights that protect open source projects, this way he could have help from developer's comunity in a more reliable environment work (i mean, without the risk of being plagiarized).
btw, the new version will be awesome!
