We have recently started (secretly) beta testing SimpleRockets 2 for PC and Mac. We started with a very small group of people, just to ease into this and make sure nothing exploded, including our brains. So far we've had about 165 bug reports submitted and only Nathan's brain has exploded, so it's going well.

We'd like to add a few more beta testers. Please, let us know If you are interested here. We can't take everyone, but I will randomly select at least 25 people. If you are selected, you will receive a notification here on SimpleRockets.com by 10/5/2018 at 9pm CST.

Also, I've been keeping an eye on how much we have left to do and the likelihood of finishing SR2 in October will be rather difficult. It is starting to look more likely that we will release in early November at this point. I have a stash of black licorice on standby. It smells gross.

As a bonus, here are some recent screenshots from some of the beta testers.

Edit: We are finished taking submissions.

    @SpaceX4Life Yes, but probably early November, and not exactly 1/10, it could be 2 of November, or 5 of November.

    I'm on discord and people are showing screenshots of the beta. Is this allowed? I thought it was confidential.

    @MTAnime Oh I know what you mean. They found out a while ago. Also if you did get in you would have to be submiting bugs and feedback. Then once the testing is over and the game comes out you will have to buy the game from steam.
