1.8 Hotfix - 64 bit launcher

After a few hours of gameplay some people are experiencing out of memory, virtual memory etc crash to desktop.

We have now included the 64bit launcher (a steam restart may be required)

Please use the 64 bit launcher if you are using a 64 bit machine/OS and let us know if this gets rid of the CTD.

(Please be aware that changing 32bit/64bit will require to start a new game)

Thanks

Please help with final bug testing!

There are only 2 more updates until the final version of the game, at which point the developer will be moving on to other projects. So he needs everyone's help to test for and report bugs so that they can be fixed before then.

Q: It's your game, why don't you test for bugs?
A: The development team consists of 1 person whose time is mostly spent fixing bugs and improving the game, so any time spent playing and looking for bugs detracts from that. That's the whole reason this is on Early Access, for the developer to get help from the players to make the best game possible for them. In other words "help me help you".

Q: Why doesn't Penguin Stu do it? There's at least 2 people on the development team right?
A: Nope, like I said above, only 1 person developing the game. I'm just a volunteer that helps out on the forums and makes YouTube videos of the game in a separate but related enterprise. I can't make any changes to the game, nor do I have the necessary free time to even be a proper QA tester.

Literally this is what Early Access is all about, the community coming together to help the developer make the best game they can possibly make, so lets do this!

Please report any bugs you encounter in the thread at this link http://steamcommunity.com/app/263640/discussions/1/618463106377047076/

Thank you so much for helping out, it is really appreciated!

Sincerely,
Penguin Stu

P.S. We also humbly request that anyone who has reviewed the game take a look at the current build and update their reviews. A lot of work has gone into the game since most people wrote their recommendations and some things that have been written don't apply anymore. There is still more to add in v1.9 which will be the official pre-release version, so if you want to wait until then that's OK too, just be on the lookout for that announcement!
