SlayerGames is a french Kerbal Space Program player. After discovering the game through YouTube videos, he decided to give it a try and loved the game, mostly because of its infinite possibilities and very active modding community. Real-life, Slayer is very interested by rocket science, and is excited by the recent SpaceX achievements.

  • Add links to french articles

To find the official translations of KSP words, these pages are useful :
