Helium Rain 1.1.2 released
As a surprise addition before launch, we're adding a 13th ship to Helium Rain. The Themis freighter is not a new combat unit, but a smaller version of the old Atlas superfreighter that will provide half of its capabilities for 60% of the cost. We thought this unit would fill the void between the Atlas and the much smaller Sphinx.
Having the game working perfectly is always our prime concern. Here are all the bugs fixed in 1.1.2, which is a longer list than usual - we've been testing the game pretty intensively since the 1.0 update, and many new players reported issues that existed in earlier versions.
We'll be releasing Helium Rain out of Early Access on October 11. Tell your friends ! This is a big day for us. No changes are planned until that date, unless we find dramatic issues in the next hours. We'll keep working on issues reported by the community. As usual, please always report crashes our bugs !

Helium Rain is a single-player space simulation that places you at the helm of a spacefaring company. Exploration, trading, station-building, piracy are all options. You will need to master both real-time action and long-term strategy: destroying a freighter has a direct impact on the economy, while declaring war will make your spaceflight environment slightly more hostile...
- 12 playable ships with weapon and engine upgrades
Play fighters, bombers, cargos, corvettes or capital ships. - Realistic economy model
Take advantage of an accurate simulation of space trade to be the most competitive company. If diplomacy fails, blockades are in order. - Fast-paced combat with a Newtonian flight model
There is no speed limit in Helium Rain. You can fly at half a mile a second while aiming backwards ! - Localized damage model for spacecrafts
Aim for critical systems in order to disable ships, kill their crew or capture targets. - Procedural contracts, world exploration, technology upgrades
Pick contracts and build your empire.
