To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Nice idea but they may be two problems with doing that.

1 Are deep shadow still a going concern. ❓

2 And if they have gone under who has there assets now. ❓

Is Deep Shadows the developer/publisher? If they are it will be a problem because then they are the only ones with sole rights to the game as I know it. But if someone buys the rights (wish I could) then it could be sold. Selling it on Steam would definitely get the game noticed to a larger audience, only thing that would need to be done is internationalize it completely.

Can’t remember if this has been mention before but you can download the game from this Russian website

You can find some instuction on how to do it on the Deep Shadow forum here.

Well I joined the Steam group, I will let you guess what my steam tag is! 😆 Also had a look at your link Pinback. I would buy it but I am a little worried about the security of that site. Also, there is no way I will buy a pirated copy either. If steam takes it up, I would buy it in a blink though..................... 🙂

Unfortunately that’s the only two ways any one out side of Russia can get the game, as for steam who knows. Although I did read on the Evochron site they have had no answer back from steam about hosting there game, so I don’t think we will be seeing Precursors on it any time soon.
