Alpha versions 0.22 of the Space Flight Sim Kerbal Space Program is out, and with it comes a load of new features such as career mode and a new launcher. It is out on PC, Mac, and Linux so no Kerbal is left behind.

The career mode is there as both something to do to occupy players who have been checking in since the alpha’s launch in 2011, as well as to teach new players the ropes of flinging Kerbals into space. Players will have to run their own space centre, including the staff, R&D, and launches. New tech will unlock as you progress, and if it is anything like the rest of the game, it will be complicated by intrinsically fascinating as slowly come to understand it.

If you want to see the whole list of changes, you can check them out over on the Steam page.
