I really need to keep checking for updates. Drifter is just so relaxing to play and I don't mean that in a bad way, it has just the right amount of pace in a similar way the Elite 2 did.

If you have the newer versions, it will notify you when there is a download update available for the game :)

[url]http://celsiusgs.com/drifter/wiki/Current_Build_and_Known_Bugs[/url] We're also very close to getting the game up on Steam Early Access! Not 100% sure of the release date yet but probably within the next 2 weeks. Of course everyone that's gotten the game through Kickstarter and Humble will be getting Steam keys :)

Hi Colin, although I use Steam myself, I know some folk who don't, so will the game still be updated for Kickstarter backers & Humble Bundle purchasers or is the switch over to Steam compulsory to keep the game updated?

I have a love/hate relationship with Steam but having said that I have found it to be very useful for keeping indie games upto date.

Unfortunately it's almost a necessity these days if you're actually selling games on PC because there are so many people out there that only get their games through Steam.

csgColin you hear a voice from the darkness it says... 'capital ships'... you must comply! :) haha I appreciate the persistence and I'll say that the idea of really big ships being added to Drifter is pretty interesting and not an impossibility, but it'd definitely be an "after 1.0" feature :)

Humble just added Steam keys on their end so everyone that Kickstarted or pre-ordered can add the game to their Steam library now. The game won't actually be available to download until sometime next week, but I figured I'd give you all a heads up! :)
