Old Version Archive

[mrhanman]

So, I was digging around in my old files, and I found the Factorio Demo version 0.2.7. This was the first time I tried Factorio, though it was a while later before I had the spare cash to get it. I was amazed at how far the game has come, but the demo doesn't let you get very far. I was hoping there was an archive somewhere where I could find old versions of the game to mess with. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

Only down to 0.6.4

Sorry, I should have mentioned in my post that I was aware it went back that far. I was hoping to find stuff even older. Hopefully as far back as the earliest releases.

I may have something for you:

Edit: Unfortunately the Link/ Archive seems to be not working anymore. Maybe the devs or someone else will provide you with an updated link somewhere

Remember the times where underground belts didn't exist, and it had to be solved by long handed inserters?
There were even very-long inserters to make it possible to cross rails.

We have all these versions available around, so we should throw a few on the factorio history page (that should be created sooner or later).

Oh, man, that would be awesome! I hope this turns up again sometime.

Thanks. A comprehensive history page would be perfect. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it.

Searching on youtube may get you some insight into the old versions
