Fraktal Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 For what it's worth, I believe it could be worth keeping a demo around so that people who are interested in getting KSP but are unsure if their PC's hardware is enough can use the demo as benchmark to see for themselves if their rig is good. Especially since minimum/recommended spec lists you usually find online are not 100% pass/fail; for instance, my own laptop's CPU is supposedly insufficient for KSP according to SysReqLab, pointing at the low single-core clock speed of 1.1 GHz while completely ignoring that it's quad-core and auto-overclocks itself up to 2.2 GHz when under load, not to mention claiming that my RAM is a pass as far as recommended specs go while in actuality, the game runs like crap if I'm running Chrome in the background and it still crashes with an access violation error after about two dozen scene changes, despite not using any parts mods. So yes, no amount of stated specs is ever going to be a more definitive verdict than actually running the game, for which a demo would be perfect.

The game has grown so much since then, it's not even viable on 32-bit anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deddly Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Unfortunately, they seem to have given up on the demo. However, you can get the game on Steam, try it for a couple of hours and get a refund if it doesn't work or if you don't like it. https://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly because updating it would require developers to generate an updated demo package, and there are no longer any software developers working on this franchise.

The demo was removed from Steam some years ago, I don't remember exactly when, but it happened in 2019. I remember someone asking about and being answered that "the team doesn't feels the Demo correctly represents faithfully the game anymore". Or something like that. But at least anyone that had ever downloaded the demo before could download it again. Until a couple years ago, I think.... https://steamdb.info/app/231410/history/ Curiously, the depots themselves were deleted from the public downloads and re-added back in 2023, and then removed again and reloaded into the scratchpad downloads. I'm guessing this is the reason it was removed from my library. Now in 2025 they deleted the Demo again, this time from the scratchpad. I think someone had considered updating the Demo before, but the project never fruitfied. Apparently, someone found scratchpad's depots and decided for a mercy shot on the thing.
