Hey Folks!

Continuing the uploads of the Steam Festival of Games live streams, I've uploaded a recording of the most recent dev build to YouTube:

Ostranauts Dev Build Stream - Steam Festival of Games Summer 2020

In it, I live stream the latest dev build on my machine to a Steam audience for the Festival of Games. You'll see K-Leg station, kitting-out or salvage tug with extra batteries, buying items with starting funds. Plus ship navigation, docking, a few gentle spaceship collisions...all sorts of fun.

If this sounds interesting to you, please wishlist Ostranauts on Steam here. Wishlisting is one of the most effective ways of helping the game succeed before launch, as it tells Valve this game is going to be a big deal!

And if you know anyone else who might dig this type of game, let them know! Spreading awareness is something everyone can do to help me continue to make games like this.

Thanks for your time, and stay tuned for more spacelife news!

Ostranauts Demo Stream - Steam Festival of Games Summer 2020

In it, I live stream the same demo we showed at PAX East 2020, to a Steam audience for the Festival of Games. Over 50 minutes of me talking! (And, I guess, some Ostranauts gameplay.)

Hey Folks!

Dan Fedor here, founder of Blue Bottle Games, LLC, and developer behind Ostranauts. I'll be live streaming the Ostranauts demo today, June 16th, at 2pm Pacific time. It'll be a chance to see me try to make the demo we revealed at PAX behave as I explain the various features and details.



I'll be doing a second live stream tomorrow, June 17th, also at 2pm Pacific. And I miiiiiight sneak a little peak of the current Ostranauts build in there ;)

Looking forward to seeing you there! (And I apologize in advance for my stumbling through my first live stream.)

Best,
Dan

Hey Folks!

As many of you know, Ostranauts had to delay the June 11th Early Access launch. Testing still showed the game needed work, and both I and Modern Wolf discussed at length before deciding to delay it further. That's on me, and I apologize for getting your hopes up only to let them down.

I don't have a new date in mind yet. However, I do have some exciting news. Ostranauts is going to be in the Steam Summer Festival with a free demo!



The same demo we showcased at PAX East 2020 will be available for you to try, free, starting June 16th at 10am Pacific Time on Steam. You can get hands-on time with character creation, salvaging, the reactor controls, socializing, and some really early experiments with ship navigation.

Furthermore, I'll be live streaming the demo on the 16th and 17th, likely around 2pm Pacific Time, for anyone who needs help, or just wants to hear me blab as I play the demo :)

So come on over to Steam starting at 10am on June 16th, give the demo a shot, watch a few streamers (including yours truly), and share your feedback with me on the forums or discord. I'm keen to hear it!
