Greetings Astroperators!

Due to popular demand (and also a need for a bit more testing), we’ve reactivated the demo and it is now LIVE!

From now until Monday at 11 am PDT, the demo will be playable for everyone so be sure to join while you can, and as always, join our Discord and leave us some feedback!

A few things to note with this build:

• First, we've gotten some major bug fixes implemented that were reported to us from Steam Next Fest, this should make the gameplay experience smoother.
  
• Next, up, no need to unlock anything! That's right, pick whatever skins, attachments, weapons, or Astroperators (the same 3) to customize your gameplay experience. Try all sorts of new builds and designs to see your favorite!
  
• Lastly, no more spam! text chat and voice chat are disabled for this build so you can just enjoy the game without having to worry about anything else. We understand this may make teamwork a bit more complicated, we apologize for this inconvenience.
  
• There is Gamepad support but please be warned this is still a WIP.
  

So suit up, grab your weapon of choice, and jump in!

Hey Astroperators!

It's that time, unfortunately; the Steam Next Fest Demo for 2023 ends at 10 am PT today!
