Space Bob leaves Early Access

It's time! It's been 6 months since Space Bob entered early access, 18 months since the free open alpha became available for download, and 2.5 years since development first began, but Space Bob has now gone gold and left early access today. It's been a fantastic journey and I've met so many great people along the way who helped to shape the game at every stage of development. I can't thank each and every one of you enough for showing support and making Space Bob what it is today. I hope I did you all proud but our journey is far from over. Like Bob reaching the jump-gate, it's is only the beginning. I have some wonderful ideas brewing for post release content and you can expect updates and new features to continue to appear as often as they did during Early Access. There are still so many cool things to explore in the world of Bob and I could happily work on expanding it for years to come if there's enough support. Whatever happens in the future, I'm extremely proud of how Space Bob turned out and now it's time to have some fun and make it even better. Thanks again and here's hoping for a successful launch.

Edit 3:

Good news. Steam solved it's issues with the New Releases listings within 24 hours and we hit New and Trending on the front page for many people today. :) I'd also like to thank everyone who rallied behind the game over the past 24 hours. It made a huge difference and once again I can't thank you all enough.

Edit 4:

Build 1.01 Patch Notes can be found HERE. ______________________ Edit/Update 1: (Original edit) Oh dear. Steam has changed so much since the release of my last game in 2015. New games no longer get a spot at the top of the new releases list on the front page, so Steam is generating very little traffic to us here. This is very concerning for me right now. Views are only about 5% of what I was expecting based on previous experience. If you can help to spread the word about Space Bob's release today it would be very helpful otherwise the game is going to disappear before anyone even knows it exists. Somehow we need to get it trending to grab that front page spot. Edit 2: Things are starting to make sense. It turns out there are some problems with Steams New Release buttons on the front page. None of them take you to an actual list of New Releases. At best it will show a list of popular new releases only, and when it attempts to show actual New Releases it shows a list of games that are not even released. Some even have release dates of 2015 and are still not released. The only place I could find Space Bob in a new releases list was in a place that is not even flagged as being a place to see new releases - by clicking directly on the Games tab near the top of the front page. In there we are in the list of New and Trending but we don't appear in the New and Trending list on the front page itself. Go figure! I've contacted Steam about this with lots of examples of what's wrong. Hopefully they can solve the issue but it might be too late for Space Bob to gain the exposure it deserves. Right now it's extremely hard for players to find the game without direct links. Wonderful!
