Universe OS 1.0

Universe OS 1.0 was the first Universe OS. It couldn't run without Universe DOS, as it wasn’t an OS of its own.

Project Space(1983)
The codename of Universe OS 1.0 was Project Space, it was a plan to combine ideas that were not used in the final release of Universe DOS Shell(such as Windows) because it did not fit in the DOS as a program. The first leaked build was Universe DOS 4.0.226, and this build was a full UI for Universe DOS instead of a program. The second leaked build was Project Space 1.0.2. It had mouse support as well as a keyboard. The third leaked build was 1.0.11, it had more features, such as a wallpaper and a quickbar.

UniverseWorld 1984
The fourth build that was released in UniverseWorld 1984, 1.0.23, had a different look than 1.0.11. The fifth leaked build Universe OS 1.0.45, dropped the Project Space codename and added more features. Not long after, Universe OS 1.0 was displayed at ComputingShow 1984.
