1. Will This Be Released On Steam & Itchio?

Yes.

2. Will this be released for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android?

Yes.

3. What will happen to the old game jam build? (steam specific question)

The game jam build will be obselete. Steam and Itch.io will be updated to Stillwater Remastered. While we are honored you enjoyed the original game jam version, we believe Stillwater Remastered is the polished vision of the work we couldn’t finish during the game jam. We hope you enjoy it!

4. Can I load up old saves from the game jam version of Stillwater?

No, Stillwater Remastered can not load up previous saves from the game jam version.

5. Will there be a Stillwater sequel?

It is a future project we would like to make, but realistically, we would need time and funds to tackle this endeavor. Hopefully soon.
