It has taken just under two weeks for Blazing Griffin’s real-time space strategy Distant Star: Revenant Fleet to be zipped through Steam Greenlight, with over 3,000 votes demanding more space pew-pew.
It’s already available through alpha access, but can now officially join the Early Access club on Steam. The first content update landed this week, with it due for full release in Q1 2015.
The team behind Distant Star describe it as ”RTS meets roguelike” with dynamically generated galaxies with a narrative woven through it all. It’s a fleet-based strategy with ”persistent upgrades, persistent damage, and perma-death”. The alpha access for the game is just £4.99 through Itch.io currently. Steam keys will be issued once it hits the platform.
