Steam Marines has entered Beta v0.8.9b!

Hi, everyone.

I'm pleased to announce that v0.8.9b has been released as a beta version of Steam Marines - the first build of beta!

All platforms now have access to the Alien Deck and the last Patriarch boss, re-implementation of pre-Linux port content, marine class Retraining options, and finally the sentry turret animations - in short, Steam Marines is pushing through development!

Beta will be more tightly focused on polishing existing content and UI/UX on the road to release (Q4 2014.) There are certainly bits of content I wish to add such as additional items, armor/weapon mods, and talent/stat/skill/perk tuning, AI tweaks, et cetera, but the meat is all there and I am primarily interested in player satisfaction with the full experience and not just the core mechanics and systems.

Thanks for playing and happy robot hunting!
