I don't know if he has given it a proper try yet, but he is showing footage of 1.82 in his video. How do I know? It's in the copyright message in the intro screen, it says 2003-2015, meaning version 1.82.spud42 wrote:Scott doesnt seem like he has tried the new version yet
Also, Diaspora is great and Space Engine is simply jaw-dropping (although not exactly a game yet).
