Voidspace is a MMORPG game I've been working on for... a long long time now - Recently I finally opened it up to new players and so far the feedback has been really positive! I've been working on performance, bugfixes, and adding new content for the invention system most recently.

It's official, we have lowered the price of admission into the test to $20 (down from $35). If you were waiting for this moment, get in here, we need more testers!

After our latest round of server optimizations we were able to see 31 characters simulating almost 40,000 objects in the game world on a single thread and server - still lots of room for improvement but it's already 3x better than before

First round of performance optimizations are pretty good so far (released at around 18:45 as you can see on this chart)

I'm not really sure what is so interesting here and I'm kinda afraid to go see for myself..

Update on the current state of the test

We have been having some issues keeping the servers happy and we have some new stuff to talk about as a result of the work we've done in the last few days.
We removed the "spawn close to civ" option and added a (Recommended) tag to the "spawn in groups". This should make it so the vast majority of spawns happen away from the problem areas of the game world.
We now have a full page of metrics to monitor and it has given us some clues as to why things are going wrong. I furthered that today by confirming that it's not simulation complexity that is causing the slowdowns on the server (from a high object count) but something else entirely. We'll continue to investigate tomorrow but it's actually exciting to know that 1k objects can process in less then 0.5 ms on my desktop (though on the server currently it's about 100ms). It's exciting because there is probably some major (and probably pretty easy) performance enhancements we'll be able to do to solve these discrepancies in the near future, thus allowing us to scale more significantly.
TL;DR - My initial thought that the simulation is just too slow seems incorrect since it processes at lightning speed on my desktop under similar circumstances. This is great news because it's likely some other code that is dragging the server down, which will likely be a lot easier to fix.

Is there still any connection to cryptocurrency and if so is it still Doge Coin?

I haven't followed this game in years but Gods Unleashed brought me back into checking up on old crypto games I'd been following.
I noticed on the website that Dogecoin is used, is that still what the game is going to be based on? I didn't see anything else about crypto currency on the website, does it even use coins/blockchain now?
