I asked this awhile ago, and I was told that it'd be about April when the boxed version of GalCom was released, its June and nothing. Is there any updates on when a boxed copy may be released on the market?

Okay then, second question - Is there any chance of getting GALCOM available on Steam? Since it'll be a digital purchase I like to have all my games in one spot.

Not likely. Its bad enough supporting two DRM schemes. I have no intentions of adding a third. If anyone wants to buy my games, they already know where they are available. We have no need to have it on Steam as that only translates to additional work, not necessarily additional revenue.

Oh, pity: I was looking forward to the boxed version.

Oh well, here goes for an online buy, along with parkan 2.

I just hope the ongoing episodes will soon follow.

P.S: I just hope talon elite WILL go out boxed as planned. but for ES, I'm lucky after all: I was among the ones to pray for a version not to go on gametap, and I was heard LOL.
