<span class="bold">Kenshi</span>, a revolutionary, build-your-own-story sandbox RPG, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 25% launch discount.

People will have you believe that it's hard being a hero, but what nobody tells you is that being a face in the crowd can be even harder, if you do it right. Because, even though you are not stronger, faster, or tougher than anybody else, you can still try to make a difference. You can gather a group of other slobs around you, train them to become fighters, give them a purpose, start a rebellion against the slavers, then carry your wounded mates from the battlefield back to your stronghold. Or you can lead the quiet life of a farmer or trader, as long as you can keep the beasts and cannibals at bay. This is an huge, unforgiving world full of opportunities, ruthless people, and random acts of cruelty, even at this alpha stage of development. Creators Lo-fi Games promise to keep adding and polishing stuff along the way, same as your character can do when he's building and maintaining his base of operations.

Be whoever you want to be, as long as you can get enough people to follow you, in <span class="bold">Kenshi</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.
The 25% launch discount will last until August 11, 2:59 PM UTC.

Note: This game is currently in development. See the <span class="bold">FAQ</span> to learn more about games in development, and check out the forums to find more information and to stay in touch with the community.

I see as a good omen.
See Starbound was rotting on steam for ages.
It comes to gog and **BOOM** gets a full release.
So now it's time for Kenshi.

Wishlisted for now.

catpower1980: mmmm.... I was gonna make a sarcasm about how it has been in development for ages but seeing the new screenshots on the game page they at least updated the whole graphics engine/assets since the early days.

micktiegs_8: edit: You'll find my name in the credits... that's how you know my opinion is completely biased :)

catpower1980: Is there an ending credits roll or is it directly available in the main menu?
you can do it in the menu... there is no 'ending' as far as I'm aware.
Mmmh, I have it on Gamersgate now for years, still says it's in alpha. I really thought it was already abandoned, because there was no progress visible for years (at least for the gamersgate version). I don't want to say anything games in development for a long time, but there is a time frame every should plan beforehand, otherwise the game will be forgotten or the interest got lost. This one is a good example for it.

I would really appreciate and recommend if GOG and the developers would add a roadmap for every early access game, at least some lines from the developer what and how he wants to do. If your game needs time, please make the progress and your goals visible as good as you can.

In comparison to this game was Starbound a quickie. Three years Starbound, this one is at least five years (need to check my mails if I can track when I bought it).

Yep, this game was among those released in the first "batch" of Steam Early access games (March 2013).
This looks interesting. Definitely keeping my eye on this one.

Well, they have one:

The screenshot seems reminiscent of the Road Warrior.
I like the sound of this one. Hopefully it will be completed before long.

Kind of removes the point of 'In Development' don't you think? That'd be more "Preorder early and get access now"

That's exactly what I think should be linked on the gamespage. I know it's hard to predict a release date, especially for small teams. I can't blame them for this. But I think if you sell a game, give everyone directly an easy way to track the progress without searching the internet for it.
I agree with Amrit - if GOG have picked this up it bodes well for continued progress.

I really hope so anyway, because I've owned it since 2011 and I'd like to see it actually become a game some day.
About time this comes here.
I've had this on GamersGate since early alpha. Since then I was able to activate on Steam. I would like to get it here to get back to a DRM free version. This would be a good time for GOG Connect.
low rated
I've heard this is very popular in Korea.

BreOl72: Nothing against "in Dev" or "Early Access" Games, but this one is "in Dev" since 2011 (?).

I bought into it back then, and still wait for it to get completed...that's something, you might want to consider, before you shell out the money for it.

HypersomniacLive: And how far has it come since then? Are there signs that it will be completed? Because I remember this being in development for what seems like... ages.
Pretty far, afaik. I haven't played it but have followed development, and the dev does keep expanding it. Last I knew it was fairly playable as it was, and that was a few years ago.
