Both the Steam and Shareware build support Peer to Peer connectivity and we welcome Steam users to invite their friends with the Shareware build (assuming they do not own the game.)

The Shareware build is located here: https://www.vera-visions.com/twtest.html

We will be releasing TWTest Revision 5 tomorrow, so hold off on downloading the build for tomorrow's play test until then. However, everyone is still welcome to checkout TWTest Revision 4 in the meantime!

We look forward to seeing you all in the wasteland! ~ Vera Visions & Cobalt-57
