It has zero discount now.

I can see 10% (11% regional pricing) discount.

Well I did enjoy the first game so this is very tempting..... may wait until it's out of development stage.

What scaling problem?

Will there be a Linux version again? Then again, I felt the original was bog-slow and buggy (e.g. often just silently hanging during the already insanely long pre-menu game startup when save files were incompatible after one of the too-frequent updates) and not all that great overall, so maybe it doesn't matter.

Hmm looks like the removed the aspect I liked (battle system) and kept the aspects I didn't like (procedural generation), so I guess I'll pass on this one.

It's countdown clock is wrong.

(GOG set 10% off for StarCrawlers but not Chimera initially. They fixed it after I reported the bug in #2.)

Will definitely be snagging this once it's out of InDev! GoG is definitely on a roll with the bang-up releases!

This should make Starcrawlers advance through my to-play list. Looks really fun.

Cant remember what it was that put me off buying the (after i was initially excited by the news) original...

When I played it, I was having a ton of fun, and then suddenly the missions were getting dramatically harder than my characters ability to level up... until even the "easy" missions were totally impossible. I went online and read a few other complaints about the same thing, figured it was just hopelessly broken balance, uninstalled and never looked back.

Which was a shame, because I had really been enjoying it.

I didn't have that problem at all. Finished the game without excessive difficulty, though the final combat was challenging. The balance was fine.
