Quoting: liamdaweSo instead, both Valve and Drodo are working on their own stand-alone version of the game while supporting each other.

There are going to be two versions of the same game, and both parties are going to support each other...? That sounds like it won't work.

Sony did this with the Playstation apps, too. In that case, I had to keep both apps installed, which I found annoying. I think one was dependent on the other...? That doesn't seem right in the mobile app world. I don't remember right now. Anyway, I like to be signed into Steam via the app sometimes so my friends can ping me to get online at the times that I'm willing to play something if a friend gets on but don't want to be online by myself. I wonder where the Steam apps will draw the line. Is chat going to be removed from the main app? Will I even need that one if I don't use it for 2FA?

I like the DRM-free, but I find it pretty annoying to be without cloud saves and efficient patch management. It makes it a hard choice which content delivery vendor to buy from.

Looks well done -- artful to play through.

Cache Grab Studios may not have been the best company name for a crowdfunding campaign.

It would be nice if this game got good, because then I wouldn't have to think about SSB on the Switch I don't have yet.

Oh, maybe I'll get this one eventually. I'll wait 'til I complete the ones I have.

It's gonna be a rainy weekend, so I know what I'll be doing! I'm gonna take advantage of the free weekend. Buying the First Colony Edition is very tempting.

I have the original Kingdom Rush and think it's well done. But, honestly, tower defense just doesn't hold my attention too long. Something about this game looks more appealing than I anticipated. I agree that it looks like Starcraft cute mode. You saying that it's not as hardcore as a game like Starcraft interests me even more because I was never good enough to face humans. When I loved RTS games, it was Red Alert and Age of Empires II, games that would allow you to conquer the enemy with massive amounts of only a couple different types of troops. And you didn't have to micromanage several squads. I know. I'm lame and not a real strategist. (FWIW, I did complete the Wings of Liberty and Heart of the Swarm campaigns.) This cutesy game looks up my alley in my mid-life age.

Yeah... I'll probably buy Sandstorm the first day it releases to Linux. :)

It looks way good and fun to me! From you guys' feedback, I'll be sure to buy it from a place that allows easy returns.
