The people have asked and we have delivered. Today we published a set of trading cards for the Steam edition of My Ex-Boyfriend the Space Tyrant. The set of six cards use beautiful location artwork from the game and contain extra information about the galaxy in the game. There are also five badges, including a special "Beautiful Space Traveller" foil badge, as well as emoticons like ":flirtbot:" and special profile backgrounds that you can unlock. If you have already been playing the game, you should retroactively receive some cards. It was fun to put these together and we hope you enjoy them.

A new version of My Ex-Boyfriend the Space Tyrant will be released later this year to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the initial release of the game way back in 2012. The new release will see the game ported to the same engine as the sequel, Escape from Pleasure Planet (available now). This 2017 version of the engine is massively updated compared to the 2013 one running Space Tyrant and contains bug fixes, performance improvements and new features such as dual monitor support. Story and gameplay will be generally unaffected. The original version of the game will also still be available on Steam in a "classic" channel. The update will be free to all owners. END FLIRT MODE
