Essential Briefings
A few high-signal entry points for what RetroFrontier is trying to feel like: a terminal-bright space sim with the world always behind the glass and enough project notes to follow where it is headed.
Viewport
Space stays behind the glass
The game view is meant to sit full-screen behind floating terminal panels, so the world never disappears just because you opened a log, market panel, or contact menu.
World
Belts, stations, routes, and rumors
Dense resource fields, route hazards, and station pockets are being shaped as authored frontier spaces instead of empty scenery pasted behind a UI.
Transmissions

Release notes, world notes, and design transmissions live here so you can see what changed without digging through commits or internal planning threads.
