Singleplayer Hazeron

Deantwo — Sun, 19 Nov 2023 09:02:30 +0000

Hazeron Starship, the singleplayer version of Shores of Hazeron, has gone public on the Steam store. If you are interested in it, it would be helpful if you wishlist it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2239520

Haxus has not announced anything on the forum about it yet, but the store page has a release date of 2023-12-01.

To the best of our knowledge, Hazeron Starship won't have multiplayer support on release. Haxus has however talked about hopefully implementing some form of multiplayer after releasing the game.

Hazeron MMO Shutting Down

Deantwo — Tue, 06 Dec 2022 13:49:26 +0000

Haxus has finally returned after months of being away. He announced that the Hazeron MMO will shutdown some time this month.

Haxus will focus on getting Hazeron Starship, the singleplayer version of Hazeron, on Steam in Q1 of 2023.

He says he is considering to implement "LAN play" for Hazeron Starship in a future update after releasing on Steam.

The Shores of Hazeron MMO is back online!

Account creation and payment system has not been restored yet. Accounts from universe 6 (and maybe universe 5) still exist and have all been credited with 30 days of gametime.

Haxus announces return of Shores of Hazeron

Deantwo — Thu, 13 Jan 2022 16:36:30 +0000

Haxus just out of nowhere announced that he will be bringing the Shores of Hazeron servers back online by the end of February.

We don't have a lot more information about this yet. This is the first we hear from Haxus is half a year.

Will give more information once we know more and schedule an event for the launch if we get a set date.

I am in the process of bringing the Shores of Hazeron servers back up. Their new home is currently being prepared.

Reconstruction of the server rack is also needed. The computers have been sitting cold in my barn, right where I dumped them a year ago. If the equipment still works, we'll be good to go.

That is all moving along. Servers will probably be back up by the end of February.

Shores of Hazeron has been shutdown

Deantwo — Thu, 21 Jan 2021 13:57:31 +0000

Yesterday on 2021-01-20 the Shores of Hazeron game servers were shutdown, along with the website, forums and wiki.

The information we have is limited, and we don't know the exact cause of why the game was shutdown so suddenly. The following is the only messages we have gotten.

The main source of information we have is an email Haxus, the developer, sent the writer and I:

Shores of Hazeron servers and web site were taken off line today. They will not be back.

I am not sure about the future of Hazeron Starship. I'll bring back the wiki if needed for Hazeron Starship.

Thank you for your assistance gentlemen. I apologize for changing plans unexpectedly. Sometimes unexpected things happen.

I received the lore book, [writer]. I will read it carefully.

In-game the servers were just shutdown with the following message[discord.com] alongside its countdown:

Well, this is it everyone. Shores of Hazeron is shutting down forever. It's been a fun ride. Thanks for playing.

Haxus had warned that the Shores of Hazeron MMO would return to pay-to-play, or maybe even be shutdown once Hazeron Starship was released. However this was sudden and unexpected, we can only hope that Haxus is ok.

In the email Haxus said that the future of Hazeron Starship is uncertain, and I have yet to hear more from him about it. But I am still hopeful that he will be able to release Hazeron Starship at some point.

Given that most of the information about Hazeron Starship vanished with the forums. I might compile some information about it in another announcement post later if there is interest or news about it.

The Shores of Hazeron Discord server[discord.gg] will remain up, if anyone wants to talk or discuss other games that might fill the void.

Website HTTPS Update and the Launcher

Deantwo — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 22:36:18 +0000

As of today's update, the Hazeron.com website now uses HTTPS. This has caused the launcher to stop working and will prevent it from downloading client updates.
The launcher does not have an auto-update routine for itself, so you will have to download the new version from https://www.hazeron.com/downloads.php.

Update 2020-02-21, Game Reset Final Changes

This is likely to be the last update before the reset. The software is ready at this point. A few things need testing and there are always bugs to fix.

Game universe 6 will start fresh at the end of next week, Thursday or Friday.

Saturday is tempting because it is Feb 29, how strange.

This update brings a ton of changes in preparation for the universe reset, definitely worth a read.
