From the article: "GamersGate announced today a new partnership with 3000AD, Inc developers of the long running Battlecruiser and Universal Combat series. The partnership will include the digital distribution of the Universal Combat series as well as upcoming releases planned by 3000AD, Inc."
A new patch for Galactic Command: Echo Squad SE (a Tek Jansen adventure) updates 3000AD's space combat game to version 2.10.04.
MTV Multiplayer writes: Gamers, don't worry if you regret a purchase of Derek Smart's latest space sequel, "Galactic Command: Echo Squad." You can get your money back.
Smart is, to put it mildly, an outspoken developer of space simulation games who loudly walks the line between passionately defending his creative works and at times outright attacking his own audience. Smart's own personal biography describes himself as "an eccentric and vocal personality."
Isn't he afraid people will purchase with every intent to complain for a free version? "I'm quite certain that there may be other takers. Who knows. But regardless, people know who they're dealing with, so its not like they're going to try and pull a fast one. After all, this is Derek Smart we're talking about :D," he told Multiplayer in an e-mail exchange.
GamersGate announced today that Galactic Command Echo Squad SE – Episode 1 is the latest title to hit its direct download service.
