Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare



<span class="bold">The Solus Project</span>, a captivating experience of solitary exploration and survival upon a deserted alien planet, is available now DRM-free on GOG.com with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and a 15% launch discount.

It's 2183 and humanity is looking for another place to colonize. Unfortunately, your mission goes awry and you soon find yourself alone, stranded on a mysterious planet with no signs of life. But then, who put up those grandiose structures and why do the alien remains look so awfully humanoid? You need to find answers but first you must make sure you survive. Shelter yourself from the temperamental, constantly shifting weather before you set out to explore this unusual planet, collect strange items, and figure out what happened to the inhabitants. Solitude will be your only companion as you are looking for a way to rescue yourself and contact your people, hoping the answer to Earth's salvation lies at the end of this perilous journey.



Look for a way to save the Earth by surviving this mysterious planet and deciphering its secrets in <span class="bold">The Solus Project</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 15% discount will last until June 22, 1:59 PM GMT.

To the developers one great thanks for me for being able to choose the gender of your pc. I know it does not make a huge difference to the game but it is always nice to have the option.

Hope the game sells well for you as although i only have had a chance to play for an hour i love the atmosphere and i will certainly be playing it till the end.

Hourences: Thanks for your support all! We hope you will enjoy our game! 1073 days of continuous work to try and build it!

For VR, yes this is included but I am not sure if it is easily accessible through the GOG launcher.
To run in VR you must add "-SolusVR" at the end of a shortcut. So run it with commandline "-SolusVR" and it should work with both the Vive and the Rift.
VR support is a little bit work in progress, but apart from some things (loading screens - inventory menu) work entirely.
For those using the Vive, I'm assuming that SteamVR also needs to be running too? I'll be giving that a try this evening!

Yeah Steam VR must run, no way around that given the Vive is a Valve product of course.

For Oculus you can also run Steam VR, that is how we usually play it, but it should work without too.

h.e.X.e.n.: Hi, ok, this is the point: I want buy this game on gog, but in the gog version there is no italian language while in the steam version the italian language is present.

can gog add the italian language or to play in Italian I have to buy it on steam? I wish I could buy it on gog drm free, but this thing of gog missing multilanguage support of games who have this benefit(is not the first time) is really annoying... ^ ^

some hope about this?

JudasIscariot: The game has Italian subs, I just checked and we will be correcting the game card soon enough :)

The game looks like an "instabuy", but before I checked out, I noticed that my PC might not match the requirements :(

I would very much appreciate it, if there would be a short demo.

nice! I wonder how refined/polished it is compared to its in-dev state, and how much more patching they might have to do.

I've been excited, and still am, for this game!

We think it is very solid. If you go over our reviews, for example the Steam user ones you will see that a lot of people even during Early Access brought up how solid it was. So let alone now at full release.
We do not intend to patch it unless something comes up (nothing big has in the past 24 hours).

What we will patch is VR. That one is active in development still. The non VR, and original, game is done.

What kind of PC do you have? We have very good performance actually for the graphics we have. The lowest someone managed to make it run at was a Geforce 260, although that was with everything at the absolute lowest settings and it wasn't that pretty anymore.

A Geforce 500 or 600 series would run it quite acceptable at medium detail.

Thanks for the answer.
It's important for me that I can enjoy the graphics / art of a game in all its glory; it sounds not right just to play through.
My system:
Manufacturer NVIDIA
Model GeForce GTS 450
GPU GF106

Yeah you won't manage to run it at full detail. It will run, but on low or medium detail. Still, even on medium detail it probably looks about the same as many of the games that were made during 2010 (or whenever the 450 came out) so I don't think that it would visually be much different from the games you might already be playing?

Yes of course, it's uncomfortable to grow older - for the PC and the owner.

The game went to the cart again.

The game works OK with Rift however it is not possible to move while crouched. Any ideas as to why that would be happening?

Thanks.

We are investigating the crouch issue.

As this game runs on the Unreal Engine, which is already cross-platform, any chance we might soon se a Mac/Linux version of this? It shouldn't be terribly difficult.

Steam version already updated to 1.01 with lots of bug fixes and teleport system for the Vive version. When is it going to be updated in GoG?
