I found KSP around January 2013 and got hooked onto the demo (.13.3). The release of the .18.3 demo convinced me to buy the full game.

There was quite an uproar on the forums

Speaking of, is KSP really yet ready to move out of beta?

Oh man I forgot about all that, especially how they called adding females to the game "Project V"

V was for Valentina, just so we all know.

I got the game for PC late January 2018, and the enhanced version summer of 2018. I forgot what version but I'm sure it's before 1.4

wiki time.

1.3.2

[HansonKerman]

oh? From what I saw it should have been 1.4... but ok.

[KerbolExplorer]

On 1.2.2, started playing on the 26th of December of 2017(and i'm pretty sure that was a tuesday)

I remember playing the demo a few days before and I absolutly loved it and the game was on sale so I bought it.

hey, nice man. 1.2.2.... you are one of the ones that grew up with CommNet.

yeah y3ah, that’s cool

0.18.3 for me March 2013 (ooofff is it really that long ago?)

After being told 'you'd like this' by my kids, and work colleagues talking about it too, my resistance eventually crumpled.  Got the demo, got hooked, and bought it a week or so later.

I bought it many versions after, and it feels long. Remember when you needed a mod to get reentry heat and dV calculation was all the rage

I was never really in to modding so never used a 'heat' mod, but eventually just had to get KER so i could actually design and plan bigger missions (manual calculations would have lost it's appeal very quickly for me).  Still only use a few QoL mods, and would much prefer not to feel the need for those.

Well... uhh.. here's mine

 

In late 2015, I started playing KSP v0.25. I remember using the Whack-A-Kerbal/Object Thrower (Whack-A-Kerbal is a much cooler name ngl) a LOT, especially on ships and.. of course.. kerbals.

I joined KSP 2 days after the release of 0.21 on STEAM.

you didn’t live through the blissful days before CommNet. Not trashing on it, I just turn it off in sandbox saves bc I don’t wanna be restrained 

[Kwebib]

Beta 0.9 in 2015 after I watched Interstellar in theaters!

[noobsrtoast]

0.16, i didnt really get obssessed with it until around 0.18 though when they started really shaping the game into what it is today. back when i first started playing i was really into astronomy but not really aerospace engineering/orbital mechanics, ksp changed that for me forever, ksp is my everything.

08 AUG 2012, version 0.16

It was, Buckaroo Banzai said, exactly like Professor Hikita had glimpsed... through the overthruster he and Dr. Emilio Lizardo put together from spare parts, in a laboratory at Princeton.  Can you imagine what it must have been like then - then - then - then - then - then

 

[HansonKerman]

even had screenies

[JorgeCS]

After checking the receipt from Steam, it should have been 1.0.2 (May 3rd 2015). I dowloaded the Demo from Steam a few hours before, I loved it so much I took me almost no time to decide to buy the game.

So, 5 wonderful years with my KSP, I think more than 3K hours spent on it although Steam only counts 1.6K. Joined the forum just one year later, when I started to hear about 'mods' (hey what is that? OMG!)  Didn't post much until now tho... 

@Pi_, are these screenshots from that time, or do you still have the 0.16 install saved somewhere and you took new screenies?  

Cheers!
