Stygian Software have made their turn-based isometric post-apocalyptic RPG Underrail, of which we did a very positive preview some time ago, available for pre-order at Gamersgate and at Desura. Preordering also gives you access to the latest alpha build of the game, with more content compared to the demo that was available earlier.

If you want to know what's new in this release (since the demo) you can go check out the dev log posts from the last couple of months, but let me just quickly recap the highlights:

• Huge new urban zone consisting of 8 areas
• Big new 'dungeon' consisting of 6 areas (twice as much as the last one)
• A couple of 'mini-dungeons'
• New quests
• New feats
• Traps skill
• Some updated game mechanics
• Re-balanced economy
• Food
• More weapons and armors
• Updated crossbows (feats, special bolts, damage boost)
• Various other smaller stuff​

It's definitely shaping up to be a great and unique indie RPG, so do not hesitate to give it a try (and you can still download the earlier demo for free if you're hesitant about preordering). I also remind you that Underrail is on Steam Greenlight, seeking your support.

I am definitely getting this, but it would be nice to have it on a distribution method that doesn't require a client (online login for GG).

Will order after I come home from work!

Demo was great, but a bit unbalanced. For example, you could get a sniper rifle very early and just kill everyone without any trouble. I am playing through alpha now and it seems that he tweaked the balance. Crossbows are more useful (they were great before though) and I just can't find the rifle. Damn.

I moved the snipers a bit further down the road.

Oh, hey, thanks for commenting 7 hours later. Because surely I'm still sitting around without it downloaded right?

Styg any chance for GOG?

Styg any chance for GOG?

There's a good chance to that once the game is complete, but not before that I don't think.

In any case, you can let GoG know you'd want it there:
