Plot[edit]
Anyone know if there's a torrent of Void Bastards up yet? If so, what site should I be looking on? I think the game just came out, TPB doesn't seem to have it yet. Void Bastards: Bang Tydy v2.0 - v2.0.24 MULTI9 Fixed Files; Void Bastards v1.2.2 MULTI9 Fixed Files; Void Bastards v1.0 MULTI9 Fixed Files; Game Trainers & Unlockers: Void Bastards v1.0 +5 TRAINER; Void Bastards v1.0 +1 TRAINER. I'm not sure if this will be read by the developers or not, but I felt I should put the time in and give feedback on the game. It will be fairly comprehensive, as I have beaten the game on Normal, and attempted a Hard Bastard run, which has actually killed all motivation to keep playing, and will likely result in me uninstalling the game. 1 Difficulty: - On normal, the first several.
The main character is one of many rehydrated prisoners aboard a stranded personnel vessel, whose AI must rely on its dangerous cargo to obtain fuel for a final jump to its destination.[5]

Development[edit]
The game was inspired by System Shock 2 and BioShock.[6]
