Developer's log, Stardate 9.14.12: FTL released!

Postby Justin » Fri Sep 14, 2012 12:10 pm

It's been an amazing few months of beta testing filled with hard work and lots of rebel-destroying fun, but now it's time for the rest of the world experience FTL!

FTL has just gone on sale!

If bought at our website you will receive DRM free versions for Windows, Mac and Linux as well as a Steam key.
If purchased at GOG.com you'll get the Windows DRM-free build and some bonus items.
It will be available to purchase on Steam in 6 hours from now.
Thank you to everyone (friends, family & backers) that helped make this a reality!

Congrats on release! Also, I must say I was very pleasantly surprised to see you handled the key distribution through the Humble Bundle site.

Congratulations on the release guys!
I've been in the Beta since it first opened and it's been great watching the refinements that you have made throughout.
It's the smoothest beta that I have ever been a part of!
Usually there are lots of bugs and gamestoppers, but I have only had minor things, and the majority of the ones I've read have seemed like minor ones too.
Love this game, I can't get enough of it, you have made my game of the year here! ;-)

So, all in all, huge thanks, many congrats, and I hope that whatever you turn your hands to next goes as well!
(Hoping for some more FTL to feed my addiction! :-D )

Will you still be updating the game frequently? Or is this the final game. Im fine with whatever you chose, No doubt it will always be a great game.

just to clarify, if I jumped the gun and bought this through Steam I cannot obtain a Linux version of it without buying it again from your main site?
