The 6th universe started out with the same pay to play (P2P) payment model as the 5th universe.
On 2020-08-14 a Patreon page was created and the game became free to play again.[1] At its peak, it was gaining approximately $500 USD monthly revenue and this number was still gradually rising. A couple months later on 2020-10-06, it was determined to not be a viable business model and the Patreon page was shutdown.[2]
The universe had database issues resulting in occasional rollbacks. Players would notice things they'd built vanishing inconsistently, and would lose many hours of progress when the rollbacks occurred.
On 2021-01-20, the Shores of Hazeron servers were shut down. The exact reason for this is unclear, but it is believed to have been a mix of financial instability and development burnout. This thus ended the 6th universe and all development focus moved to Hazeron Starship.
