drpaulthetall: Mmm...don't know why this isn't for Mac, while on Gamersgate/Steam its already for Mac/Linux/Windows
The Mac version will be here soon. As soon as we get it, we'll put it up :)

BlueKronos: Did we ever get an answer on the DRM status and the online leaderboards? Since I presume those are mutually exclusive is it an optional registration/login? or just not included in the GOG.com version at all?
The online leaderborards, unfortunately, require Steam to function.

BlueKronos: Okay thanks for the clarification!
You're welcome :)
Hey all, the Mac version is now available :D

IAmSinistar: Is it Xbox controller enabled? If not, is it controller friendly? Or is the game control scheme something that wouldn't really map to a controller?
Let me check on that for you :)

I happen to have an Xbawks tree-sitty controller on hand :D

IAmSinistar: Smongo! Thanks Judas. T'will be more attractive to me if so. Then I can put my old Time Pilot/Two Tigers arcade experience to use.
Well, I can 100% confirm that controller support is IN!

I just unlocked a bunch of stuff...like an engine that uses BULLETS as a means of propulsion so you're firing at the front and back :D :D

IAmSinistar: Sweet! And that's native support, as I don't need to use a keymapper?

This baby's going on the list! :D
Oh very native! Just plug in, fire up the game, and fly high :D

Kodaemon: Favourite "wtf" build so far: Fork. Spread gun, armour, hover engine. Use the gun as propulsion and fly backwards throughout most of the round, turning fighters chasing you into scrap metal :D
I am using the Cannon, Melee, Underwater build :D Sinks those annoying battleships like nobody's business and it allows you to hide underwater without taking damage during those bullet storms. Fragile as hell build, though :D
