To switch to the public test branch (Zigfrak 1.5), right-click on Zigfrak in your collection, and modify your opt-in status under the Betas tab. You may need to restart Steam to make sure it pulls down the right build. The download is about 260 megs, and the start screen says "Zigfrak v1.5.0".
Zigfrak is a space-based action RPG, featuring missions, exploration, and crafting. With an emphasis on loot and over-the-top items, it's not a traditional space sim. Enemy ships explode like loot piñatas, spewing forth useful pickups.
The game employs subtle humor to poke light at a dark situation -- a human civil war on a galactic scale, complicated by the invasion of technologically superior aliens. During the campaign, players encounter clues and artifacts which could reveal ancient secrets of humanity.
