Classic KSP1 online

[Kerballlistic07]

Ok, what if, tell me if this is stupid, there could be a version of KSP1 online? Not full 1.12.5 or any super recent release, but an older version. Perhaps 1.0 could be made available, or maybe something even older, like 0.20. This idea stems from what Mojang did a few years ago with an older version of Minecraft. They have a really old version online at https://classic.minecraft.net/. I think it would be really fun. What do you guys think?

Homestly, i’m no expert on programming and stuff, but i’m not sure that even older versions of ksp could or should be successfully played in your browser. But that would have been really cool.

It's definitely possible.  Unity allows for exporting games to WebGL instead of native binaries.  But we'd need the source code, so not really.

KSP used to be on GFN as a streaming game, but it’s not now.    For reasons?

[Kerballlistic07]

I too wonder why it's not on GFN now. It was removed abruptly I remember. I didn't ever use it, but I know some people did and they weren't happy about its removal.

Its potetionally possible. XBOX somehow lets you play games on their website, all 3d, no lag. But if we're going oldschool, WebGL might be a bit hard for KSP.

The old thread that Kerbalsaurus posted is dead. Use the links in this thread to find the old free versions of KSP:

The Source Must Flow.
