Kerbal Space Program for PC is free to download from the official website right now
In yet another instance of Kerbal Space Program approaching abandonware status, as of today the official website was changed and it now looks like it was made in 2002.
With this new website came an interesting change I can only assume is caused by lazy developers not wanting to cause a data leak: Downloading Kerbal Space Program previously purchased on the kerbalspaceprogram.com website only requires an email address, no password.
Upon reading a comment by /u/ErrorFoxDetected in a thread about the website change saying how they could download the game with their email without a password, I got curious. I obviously couldnāt ask for a random redditors email to try it myself but what if thereās an official and public email address which has the game registered to the account? Somewhat shockingly, the first email that appears in a Google search if you type āKerbal space program email addressā actually worked and using the email support@kerbalspaceprogram.com I could download Windows, Mac and Linux versions of all languages of Kerbal Space Program including DLC.
Hereās how you do it:
This is honestly an amateurish oversight and Iām much more concerned about the security of this database email check implementation, but for now this means that Kerbal Space Program is effectively free to download and play. Enjoy the download while it lasts!
