This is an "unstable" release, incorporating a lot of changes that were put off while I was focusing on getting the 0.8 branch stable and bug-free. The biggest change is the addition of Korath territory (13 new ships, 32 new outfits, 8 new weapons, 40 new star systems, and a few other surprises). Other changes include:

This release includes a new feature for players whose fleets have grown so powerful that nothing is a challenge anymore: planetary domination. Hail a planet and "demand tribute" to fight their defense fleet (assuming your combat prowess is high enough that they don't just laugh at you), then hail them and demand tribute again once their fleet is destroyed to convince them to surrender.
Several bugs are also fixed, including:
As always, Ubuntu Linux packages are available in a PPA; Mac OS X and Windows binaries can be downloaded here. The 32-bit Windows build has only been tested on my 64-bit machine, so I do not yet know if it will actually work on 32-bit Windows.

After 3 months of beta testing, Endless Sky is ready for a stable release! This release includes new types of freighters and interceptors, and updated explosion effects (shown below). Many bugs and typos have also been fixed, including a bug that made one of the Free Worlds endgame threads unwinnable, so if you are running an earlier version, please upgrade to this one.
Ubuntu packages are available in a PPA; Mac OS X and 64-bit Windows files are available for download here. Based on the Steam hardware surveys, I think very few gamers are running 32-bit Windows still, but if you desperately want a 32-bit build, file a bug report and I'll attempt to make one.

I expect this to be the final release before the official 0.8.0 stable release. Changes include an adjustable zoom level for people with large monitors, support for high-dpi @2x
sprites, faster loading and rendering, improved ship explosion effects, and many minor bug and typo fixes.
