A space oddity.

<span class="bold">Kerbal Space Program</span>, the video-game space simulator, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, with a 25% launch discount!

It's here! Since it first showed up on our gamedars, <span class="bold">Kerbal Space Program</span> has managed to go viral a few times over. Today it hits the big 1.0, and we couldn't be more excited to welcome the ultimate and amazing space-program simulator to GOG.com. With a premise as deceptively simple as "build a working starship", <span class="bold">Kerbal Space Program's</span> success is in creating the perfect blend of realism, ridiculousness, and learning. Learn from the game, learn from the community, learn from your own dumb mistakes. It's a game in which you win when you lose, and win even more when you finally succeed. With fully-fledged, physics-based space flight, a vast solar system of moons and planets, unbelievable customisability, and nearly limitless mod support, <span class="bold">Kerbal Space Program</span> is the one, unique game that everyone should try at least once.

Once you actually manage to launch your ship into orbit, once you're past your first moon landing, and once you step foot on your first alien planet - check out kerbalstuff.com, where over 500 mods await to turn your game up, or inside out, with more tweaks and additions than you can imagine.

Float in a most peculiar way in <span class="bold">Kerbal Space Program</span>, available now, DRM-free on GOG.com! The 25% discount will last until Sunday, May 3, at 4:59 PM GMT.

hummer010: Wow! Kerbal got expensive!

I'm pretty sure I paid $25 for it awhile ago.

Absolutely fabulous game.
I remember reading that the price would rise as more feature were added. It makes sense that an incomplete version would be cheaper.

I hope that if the promo end on May 1, that May 1 is included.

Is there a mod for this where your space hangar and your green Kerbalesians get attacked by the yellow Minions from Despicable Me, and where they try to wreak havoc and sabotage everything you build and misappropriate your tools and gear??

Not to forget the sales for about $15.
It seems the price got raised with the Release :/

On my shelf!
*rubs hands gleefully in approved maniacal style*
Tonight, Kerbal Minions, prepare to die for the glory of your Mad Space Director!

(Tonight being a generic term for "as soon as I get around to the download & install".)

Grargar: On Steam (where it has a similar price and launch discount), it says that it will end on May 1.
Thanks .

Grargar: No extras? Oh well, maybe in the future.
Offtopic, does that actually happens? Extras added to games released previously?

IAmSinistar: The price and system reqs unfortunately make this one to hold off on. Also, would like to see some reviews first. I'm rather leery of gamer hype.
For me, it's the best game I've ever played in my life. And I hope to play it for the rest of my life.

It's not for everyone. And last I played it it (a few updates ago -- I've been waiting for the big 1.0), its bugs would shut down my game quite regularly (having lower res terrain mostly fixed that issue).

If you like science, find space exploration interesting and want to never look at space the same way again, then you'll likely love it.

My hope is that in the future, it gets even better. This game could get better with multiplayer support (this could also hurt it -- manipulating time for long trips is a big help), tech to allow visiting other star systems, and more interesting things to find on planets. I'm not sure if any mods out there address those items. Probably. :)

Neat, need to check my library to see if something new was added. Thanks.

Wow, never expected to see this one here. I was waiting for it to come off of Early Access at the other place before even considering getting it, but I guess I'll be getting it here instead (as I don't care about the likely Workshop support at the other place; I prefer my games to be vanilla).

Now I just need to win the lottery :-)

Oh god, too many good games! I can't buy them all, let alone play them. I've enacted a strict "don't buy new games" rule for myself, but releases like this and Transistor as well as sales make it rather hard.
