Star Pirates has been invaded by the undead! Hordes of shambling, brain-hungry pirates, infected by a mind-numbing regena-plague have taken to the spaceways, spreading the virus to the ever-decreasing members of the uninfected population. What started out as vague rumours of unethical experiments on unwilling participants quickly escalated into a[…]
New Game from Snakehead Games
New Game? Yes, it’s true. Snakehead Games will be releasing a new game early next week. It’s been in development and testing for a while. Q: Is it part of the SHG Universe? A: No. Well at least not even close to the same era, nor does it use nanobots. Also[…]
Star Pirates is Three Years Old!
Greetings, Star Pirates! Now I know that you’re all sorely tempted to break into a rousing chorus of Happy Birthday, but please hold your singing for the end. Today, Star Pirates is older than it’s ever been, and by gum, that’s something worth celebrating. We decided to go all out[…]

Comic Artist’s House Burnt Down
Generally we don’t post charity threads — there are so many I’d love to support and only a few that I can. I think most people feel this way. That being said, we do feel we are part of the web comic community. As members, it’s our duty to announce[…]
Verbal Kint’s Ascension Journal
Third party postings on the SHG blog are about as rare as a Combatascan Computer, but we’re going to have one today. Why? Because Verbal Kint went through Ascension in SpyBattle 2165. I can hear you thinking “So? I’m doing that too!”, well maybe, but did you keep a journal? And[…]
Double the Warp Drive ‘Nando!
You know that we love SciFi web comics. We love to read ’em, and work with ’em. But sometimes we’re driven to do more. (yes, that was a terrible pun; wait to see why.) Anyhoo, we’re big fans of Dave Kellett’s Drive Comic. It’s the humourous story of a decidely[…]
It’s TheFlu’s Birthday
Snakehead Games is lucky to have great staff, and volunteers, that support the community and grow the games. We tend to acknowledge the days they join, or the days they take on new roles but rarely do we acknowledge their birthdays. TheFlu, however, is a behind the scenes supporter for SHG. […]
Rotating Consumables
There are many different types of equipment in both SpyBattle 2165 and StarPirates.net. In fact there are dozens of unique items in each game, and many of those can be upgraded if a player so desires. There is a class of item that can’t be upgraded, and in fact, is[…]
StarPirates Hall of Fame
StarPirates has quite the community of players. Thousands login every day, and more on a regular basis. Out of all of those players, there are some pirates that are more determined to dominate than others. These pirates tend to get more powerful, and turn into leaders in the game —[…]
St. Nick
Whao…it seems that St. Nick has sailed into StarPirates. And is that Old Nick I see in SpyBattle 2165? I wonder how he’s going to determine whose naughty and nice. I mean it’s not like there are many nice Agents and Pirates!
