Yet Another Spaceshooter
Be welcome, if this is the first time you visit this site, the About YASS page might be a good place to start for you. There you will find information about what YASS is and what it will be.
This starting page is split up into two groups: one more often updated section about the ongoing development and the other about other and bigger news.
We also have a forum where you can ask questions or just tell us about anything you want.
To stay updated on news, you can use a
RSS feed
By now we have a quite nice and constantly growing screenshot gallery, where you can follow the development progress. A seperate feed is available with the
Nightly Shots feed.
Last but not least there is a feed for the updates which are available using the auto updater
Update Feed.

YASS Development Team
The first update of the development release includes several bugfixes as well as some completely new features. The highlights are: You can now talk to the AI characters which are running around in the earth surface level and you can also shoot them whereupon they will react appropiately.

In detail the changes are:
- new AI (built from scratch)
- speed improvements due to compiler optimizations
- added multi-core support for texture and mesh loading
- grass added on earth surface
- fixed a bug that prevented the AI from being shot
- fixed character transformation when a control is released
- fixed shooting range issue (shooting from inside the building)
- removed crosshair in game menu

As I found it interestingly myself, I‘ve added some informations about the chronology of Yet Another Space Shooter and its development. Besides some little remarks on the main screenshots page, I‘ve added some informations about the post dates of the nightlies on the nightly screenshots page.
Please note that the oldest nightlies don‘t have a correct date, as they where uploaded in a batch and the exact date isn‘t known anymore
