- Localization Update - 1.21 - 9 June 2016
Hey all, We've received some feedback regarding the quality of our localization effort, particularly the German translations, and we wanted to do something about it. Our translation company agreed to completely redo their German localization and we've compiled that work into a small update that just went live. It also addresses the broken items in the Combat HUD (a bug was preventing their translation) and fixes several text overlap issues. Some small issues may still be present, but we addressed the most glaring problems. Update 1.21 Notes: Complete overhaul of German localization Addressed broken items in Combat HUD Text overlap fixes http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=700650095 Thanks as always for your support, - The Fugitive Team

- April Update - 29 April 2016
Hey everyone, Though the game was released nearly two months ago, we've been keeping busy and wanted to share a few updates with you all today. Next Patch: Update 1.2 We're a skeleton crew these days, but we're still plugging away with enhancements and fixes for Into the Stars. The next update, which we plan to release in May, will look to address localization quality (especially German) & Saved Game issues along with some tuning based on your feedback. PAX: East Our Community Manager Aaron and Audio Director Richard just returned from an awesome trip to Boston, where they showed off Into the Stars as part of the IndieMEGABOOTH. The space was packed throughout and they were overwhelmed with the support received from attendees. It's always great when, despite the mixed reviews, you can meet with real people and see them enjoying the game, so thanks to those of you who stopped by the boot…

- Into the Stars has officially launched on Steam! - 4 March 2016
It's hard to believe that it has been nearly 2 years since our first discussions of what would ultimately become Into the Stars. Today we're finally able to share the fruits of those conversations, countless hours and lots of love and support from people like you. Starting right now, you can download the Full Release of the game on Steam and GOG. To celebrate, we've just put out a Release Trailer that was a joint collaboration between Alden our Art Director and MetricMinds. Check it out: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=637802775 As you'll see once you have a chance to play, there have been a ton of changes since the 0.5 Update. In that time we were able to sneak in a few new features before shifting gears to polish and optimizing the game as a whole. Here are a few of the areas we focused on the last few months: Preset Loadouts One of the most common requests made…
