Platforms.


Recommended Posts

On which platforms is this game planned to be released? Windows is pretty obvious as it's already downloadable for it. Is, in example, a GNU/Linux port even considered to be made in future?

Kerbal Space Program is made with Unity and Unity can currently export to Windows, Mac, Wii, Xbox 360, Playstation 3, iPad, iPhone, Android and to the web plugin. A Linux exporter is in beta but not very stable yet.

What platforms KSP will be released on is entirely up to the developers...

It's good news that it exists at all. By the time this game will get any close to being finished, that linux exporter could very likely get stable.

As many as we can make it compatible with ;)

Windows and Mac are a given, pretty much, but building to consoles not only requires a special license, you also need to code special shaders (for Xbox at least) and some other stuff. That and changing the inputs to something that makes sense in all platforms.

Cheers

Yeah. But don't get your hopes up yet, there's no release date.
