You can play the Free Stars: Children of Infinity demo RIGHT NOW on GOG! www.gog.com/en/game/free...

How it feels reading emails in the year 2026.

New build is available on GOG and Steam for the Children of Infinity Combat Demo. No more crashing on MacOS! Direct3D support for devices which don't believe in Vulkan or maybe Klingon! One-time stutters gone! Check the full patch notes here.

Did you know that if you leave a Steam review for the Free Stars: Children of Infinity Combat Demo, you will be visited by one of three ghosts before a holiday? We don't pick the ghost or the holiday, but we're sure the Ghost of Groundhog Day's Future will bring blessings! Help us win the algorithm!

Who would talk to them like this though 😭

New build is available on GOG and Steam for the Children of Infinity Combat Demo. We fixed bugs! Your Mac device won't show spooky black shapes anymore (unless it should show spooky black shapes)! Click to read the full suite of notes and thanks everyone for playing and reporting things.

Supporting Children of Infinity (aka star control 2-2) is honestly an ideological issue now. If you believe in ownership of games that will not disappear at a platform holder's whim, you should support the games that put the players first.

A special, free dev diary is on our Patreon for all to enjoy as we celebrate our accomplishments together. 🎉 If you like more behind the scenes thoughts from us, consider supporting us. It all goes to the game and the people making it, and it keeps us from signing contracts with the Druuge.

🎮🚨 New stick steering control options on main! 🎮🚨 Drive like a monster with the Dpad or tank controls on the stick, we won't judge you. This and more awaits you. Check out the patch notes for our latest update for the demo on GOG and Steam.

If you're playing the demo and would like to help test some NEW and EXCITING features, including the much-asked-for steering configuration on controllers, you can switch over to the public "test" branch on Steam and GOG! We'd love your feedback. Read more here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/285...

Do you remember Star Control and The Ur-Quan Masters? Well, I don't! Welcome to GAMES HISTORY NIGHT: Prof. @soozwave.bsky.social is our guest-lecturer to take me through how this series came together before showing me the demo for @pistolshrimpgames.com's new Children of Infinity twitch.tv/chorbySP

Starting soon at Twitch.tv/ChorbySP : never heard of this before? learn about a brief history of Free Stars, and then watch us beat the piss out of each others' spaceships to a soundtrack provided by yours truly.

We are aware that many of our players wish to steer their ships with the joystick in the "classic" style. We are working on supporting this feature for the next build, but enabling it will play a short clip of someone who isn't used to it crying while trying to play The Ur-Quan Masters. Enjoy!

The button has been pushed, it's time. (did I mention I made a lot of of the music you'll hear in the demo? ... I did? oh. hmm. quite a few times, apparently. well. ok.)

Star Control 2 was one of the finest space adventures ever made. UQM has kept a free playable version going for decades, and now it's getting a modern update. Definitely giving this a go, and looking forward to the full version

It's live!!!! Closer and closer we get to the new game being released. Much excitement!!
