Starsector (formerly Starfarer) is still in development but it's been a seriously impressive game for years. Not yet on Steam or any other store, as you have to buy it direct, but don't let that stop you with a big update out now.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm guessing one of the reasons it's not in Steam is that it depends on Java to run? I don't recall every having a Java based game on Steam
Mindustry is on steam
Can't see a problem with Java on Steam as long as you bundle the runtime and not depend on linking to it
It would be very very arbitrary of Steam to bar a game based on the language it’s written on.
Why would that be the first reason you came up with and not the fact that steam takes a ridiculous 30% cut from dev's work? And yes, the game is that good, so good they can tell steam to fuck off. Makes me like the game even more..
As a dev while steams cut is large and id like to see it go down, you do get a lot for it.
Slay the spire is on Java
Project Zomboid too AFAIK
Huh, i thought PZ shipped a Java runtime?
Oh my, you're right! I thought it's in unity, because of their later strong stance against it. Maybe PC version is in Java and some of the ports in Unity?
