Milestone Reached! Space Haven Enters Beta - Station Mode on the Horizon
Space Haven is ready to shed its Alpha label after 20 Major Updates. While not quite yet feature-complete, we feel we are close and will work on the remaining features for a 1.0 while in Beta.

Games like Space Haven can be worked on forever, a future 1.0 release does not mean we will stop improving on the game. It just means we are ready to move on from Early Access and finally feel content with calling the game a 1.0 release.

Does This Mean No More Updates?
Not at all! We’re simply moving past the Alpha tag after 20 Major Updates and starting to plan a 1.0 release. Next upcoming: Beta’s first Major Update with Station Mode.
