- Have you played Captain Forever? - 3 October 2018
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Sure, you could play Captain Forever Remix , if you want to be flashy and modern and fun about it. But I still remember a darker age. I remember the REAL Captain Forever . (more…)
- Wot I Think: Captain Forever Remix - 15 June 2016
Captain Forever Remix is Ren & Stimpy + shmup + physics + those ludicrous, wobbly freeform spaceships you used to build out of random faded and chewed Lego bricks when you were a kid. …

Our first patch is available now and contains a bunch of fixes plus some new stuff for you to check out. If you thought Hard more was for babies wait until you get a load of Impossible, the newly added difficulty level! On the other end of the spectrum we've made Easy and Medium a little easier to handle (particularly Easy, where enemies now have a random chance to drop loot crates filled with Ship Bits). There's a ton more. Full release notes below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - On "Easy" difficulty, enemies may drop chests containing Ship Bits - New "Impossible" difficulty, for those who want an even bigger challenge.

- Update #8 - Prettier Backgrounds and Steam Workshop! - 23 November 2015
Hey gang, update #8 is out NOW and we've got bunch of news to share about the rest of the project! So what's in this update? First up, we focused on improving ship sharing by adding Steam Workshop support. Sharing ships was a much beloved part of the original Captain Forever games, and so with Remix we wanted to make it easier than ever to share your ships with your friends and the community. So go check out the Workshop: we’ve already shared a bunch of awesome ships for you to check out! Next: the game looks about 3000% better now (this is accurate. I did the math). There’s been a massive overhaul of all of our foreground and background effects. The stars will now remind you of those glow-in-the-dark stickers you had on your bedroom ceiling as a kid, and our nebulas are more vivid and varied (sometimes they look crispy, or creamy, or crunchy). But enough words! A picture is worth a tho…

- Update #7: Captain Forever in the Cloud! - 1 October 2015
By popular demand: we now support saving to Steam Cloud! This means that your game progress, ship history, and favorite ships should automatically sync between any same-platform computers where you play Captain Forever Remix. To support Steam Cloud saves, we had to monkey with the save game system a bit. We believe that any progress you made prior to this update should carry over to the new system without issue! If you have past progress that somehow isn't carrying over, let us know and we'll attempt to fix it! (We're pretty sure it's still there...just hiding, not gone forever.) We want to make sure this system is working robustly, so holler to let us know how we did! In this update, we've also remixed the user interface to fit better with the style we're going for. We're also displaying some new stats for each starter kit: the furthest stage you've reached and how many times you've co…
