'Rymdkapsel' coming to Steam on January 30th

One of the mobile realm's most fiendishly tricky games is coming to the desktop in just over a week. Rymdkapsel, the tower defense strategy title that's earned plaudits for its spartan simplicity and satisfying gameplay, was already promised for a January release on Steam and now its developer has pinpointed the date as January 30th.

The Steam release will let you download and play the game on Windows, OS X, and Linux.
