The Empire community is vibrant and usually fairly active. The dev team is active, and posts teasers and sneak-peaks once or twice a month or so. Multiplayer games have been hosted in the past and will continue to be hosted. Channels for suggestions, bug reports, and questions are always open and the community is always happy to assist anyone with potential questions. Spaces are always available on the dev team, and if you want to join you are free to do so!
