Enjoy your free towel! (in game only)

In celebration of the official 4.0 release of Star Explorers, I am offering everyone a towel (in game) free of charge! Use it as needed.

Important Notice!

Receiving your free towel in no way obligates you to write a positive review of this game! I will not remove the free towel from the game, even if the number of positive reviews remains stagnant for another three months. It would be absurd to think I would even suggest such a thing.

What's New?

As it turns out, I will probably not be able to do much with Star Explorers in the near future, so did not want to delay the 4.0 release indefinitely. This is pretty much the same as the 3.8 release, but I have added one new, special fun feature. You guessed it, it's a towel. If you start a fresh game, you will receive a free towel in your starting inventory. This should motivate any stragglers to start a new game already, and experience the joys of Star Explorers 4.0

Use the towel ... if you dare!

As Douglas Adams mentions in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a towel ... “is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-boggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.”

I will leave it at that. Enjoy the game. Don't forget to report any bugs here, as usual, but also let me know what you think ... it feels like things are improving slowly, and this is a much more robust game than it was when it first came out. If you are enjoying it, please tell your friends and colleagues about it. Maybe write a review, if you haven't already. Just an idea. Enjoy your towel.
