They have no control over it. Steam uses regional pricing, but Humble uses straight currency conversion.

Feel free to buy it from Steam. You get both versions (Steam and stand alone) either way and both options equally benefit the devs. Steam might even be prefered, Kovarex mentioned they benefit greatly from a big hype on Steam in the first days.

Well, I guess I better clear my calendar for the rest of the year after release. And for 2025. For a first quick playthrough to check things out.

Great fff to boost excitement. Not that it required any boosting.

(with pinky to mouth) one MILLION spm!

If that were true, ‘No’ is also an answer. Total Annihilation does not seem like the only option and certainly not an option to use as a lesson. Can’t teach a dead pupil.

I am not in a position to judge if this merger will be good for the industry, but this round of layoffs says nothing about that either.

On an individual level it is terrible for the people involved. But on the business level this is a perfectly normal and healthy thing to do and says absolutely nothing about the state of the games industry.
