 ===== Latest Public Release =====
-**Version 0.38** — Released July 11, 2026
+**Version 0.43** — Released 2026-10-01
-Update 0.38 deepens the cargo loop and tightens ship handling. Persistent cargo drops in the sector tie combat and salvage together; cargo weight now affects flight dynamics; every ship in the game gets a new sprite set.
+Version 0.43 introduces a quest-based tutorial that guides you from your first flight through research, ship upgrades, exploration, blueprints and combat, while also rebalancing early progression and fixing missing Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters.
 Highlights:
-  * **Persistent cargo drops in the sector** — destroyed cargo spawns as lootable containers, saved per sector and per savegame
+  * **Quest-based tutorial** — Ten quests guide your first flight, research, ship upgrades, exploration, blueprints and combat
-  * **Cargo weight affects flight handling** — a full hold makes ships up to 10% heavier, ~9.1% slower, and less rotation-agile
+  * **Quest journal and contextual guidance** — Track objectives, progress and rewards, with keyboard and controller hints
-  * **New sprites for all spaceships** — every ship in the game has been re-sprited
+  * **Rebalanced early progression** — Adjusted research, ship-system and sector costs, supported by milestone bonuses
-  * **Blueprint overhaul** — 800 total, category icons, duplicate merge, station-computer manager, pirate multi-drops
+  * **CJK character rendering** — Fixed missing Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters
-  * **Tooltip system overhaul** — more robust and noticeably faster
