Flatspace IIk Sale and a new Music Pack
Greetings Starpilots!

It's the 20th anniversary year of Flatspace, and today marks two special events.

First, Flatspace IIk is on sale with 69% off for the next 10 days. This is the biggest discount in years and the perfect time for new players to get the game.

Secondly, it's the release day of my latest music single 'AI and Celebrity' from my forthcoming album We Robot. To accompany this there is a new Flatspace IIk We Robot Music Pack, with exclusive instrumental edits of some of the tracks. Initially, two unique versions of the single and it's B-side (the tongue-tingling Hydroxychloroquinine Aspartame). When the album is released on October 27th, the pack will be updated too, with more music from the album.

The Flatspace IIk We Robot Music Pack is free and available now, possibly for a limited period. Get it here:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2594330/Flatspace_IIk_We_Robot_Music_Pack/

We Robot will be my first album to feature full length videos for all tracks. If you'd like to watch and listen as each become live, you can follow my music channel here:

Happy playing and listening!
