How goes it, fellow Space Bar enjoyer? Long time no see. Have you been tracking down space fugitives? Enjoying some primo space tunes? Throwing back only the finest space cocktails?
Well, regardless of what you've been doing we're here to tell you that we've got a super secret special secret beta in the works. So, if you've been enjoying the game so far get ready to enjoy it EVEN MORE, because our friends over at ScummVM have been using their weird machines, fluorescent potions and maybe a screwdriver or two to improve it. They've been poking and prodding away at it and now YOU can reap the benefits, if you think you're ready.
The Steam version will be kept in sync with their daily builds during the test. Once testing is complete, the main game will be switched over to play via ScummVM by default.
Switching to the testing branch
Right-click the game, click Properties... -> Betas -> then choose "scummvm" in Beta Participation. After a small update, a new launch option will be available to play the test.
