addedWe are happy to announce that free Steam keys are now available for everyone who owns the game on Desura. These keys will allow you to play the game here on Steam once the game launches on August 22nd 2014. In order to collect your Steam Key, you will need to head over to Desura and sign in, go to your Collection page (http://www.desura.com/collection). There, you can locate NeonXSZ and click on the link labeled 'keys' next to it. A window will pop up and provide you with your Steam Key.
removedSaved games are compatibleOnce you launch on Steam the game should automatically find your saved games. You can play either here or via Desura with the same saved games. NB: If you haven't played for a very long time (6 months or more) there is a chance your old saved games will no longer be compatible.
addedCan I buy and play now on Desura and still get a free Steam keyYes you can :) All old and new customers on Desura will always be able to get a free Steam key. If you go to the game's website (http://www.NeonXSZ.com) and click on the Buy Now button, an additional 15% referal bonus will go straight to the developer. This is not true if you go directly to Desura to buy the game so please consider doing this to help us out. The game is the same price on Desura as it will be upon release here on Steam. For the first week of sale here on Steam the game will be 10% off. This 10% discount has already been applied to Desura and will end on Aug 29th 2014.
removedIs there any difference between the Steam and Desura builds?Yes, but nothing significant. A handful of minor bugs were cleaned up ready for the Steam release. The only bug you would probably even notice is easy to fix in the Desura build. If the huge sphere in the centre of the world is bright pink go to Options/Video/Presets/Custom and untick 'Advanced Sphere Shader' in the list on the right. This will fix the problem. The Advanced Sphere Shader was completely removed from the Steam build due to incompatibility with certain video cards which caused the sphere to turn bright pink.
