Any way to access Hazeron Starship?

[GaelicVigil]

I sent him a PM back in June asking for a Beta key.  Never got a response.

I've been playing Empyrion: Galactic Survival, but it just isn't the same.  Hazeron is the greatest space sandbox and I'm sad I can't play it anymore.  

Took a look at Empyrion, it does seem quite interesting, though it reminds me a lot of No Man's Sky!
Doesn't seem like you can create your very own species or start at a caveman'ish state of evolution, haha.

For those who do have the game, I'd suppose the keys were Steam activation keys, right?

Empyrion is a fun game, especially with Project Eden (or Reforged Eden) mod which just adds more variety.  There are tons of free blueprints as well - you can get it all on the Steam workshop.  Combat is pretty cool too.  However, unlike Hazeron, the universe is not 100% seamless in Empyrion, nor can you really build an empire.

I love Hazeron more for the immersion factor.  Going from a humble cave-man to massive empire with starships is just epic.  I love the way the solar systems are all realistically simulated and that you can dead-head from one system to the next.  Distances feel vast, getting from one end of the galaxy to the other is a long ordeal and a big feat.  There is just no game that even comes close to Hazeron in that regard.

I can sort of relate to Haxus though.  I am a full-time professional software developer and have been working on an online browser RPG as a hobby for several years, and it has had its fair share of players on it too (I'd rather not say what game it is).  I've had many players come to me and ask to release the source code or even sell it.  That's easier said then done.  When you're a one-man team and you've put so much work into your baby it's really hard to let it go.  That being said, my game is 100% browser-based so I can only self-publish and make money on a subscription (and deal with the massive headache of customer support and legal hurdles).  Hazeron is fortunate to be a standalone game, so Haxus could still monetize through Steam publishing and avoid a lot of the sub-based pitfalls.
