As many of you have already seen, the issue with purchasing Lotia outside of the US has been resolved. We are very thankful for all of the support we have received from around the world!
Updates:
Minor updates to grammar in three locations.
We believe that the Bestiary crash issue has been resolved when starting a new game. We are still experiencing this issue in old save files. Work will continue to move forward on resolving this completely.
Planned Work:
We have received reports that there are collision issues in locations that should be accessible. We are looking into each of the maps and will be correcting these issues in the next planned release.
We are currently investigating encounter rates on each of the maps, starting with the Plane of Nimbus.
Update: 1.1.6
First and foremost, we would like to apologize to those who still cannot purchase Lotia due to an issue with international pricing. We have worked since yesterday to correct this with Valve and are still in the process of doing so. We thank you very much for your interest in Lotia and your patience!
Updates:
The accessory Mirror of the Waves has been updated to trigger the "Counter Attack" ability correctly. This should have a 75% of triggering when attacked with a single-target physical attack.
The "fire" animation has been adjusted so that it will appear to erupt from the feet of the targeted party member.
The Dream Walker party buff combat information has been corrected so that the player will get this information as soon as the Dream Walker joins the party.
The Vagary Lodge "Trophy Grounds" has had its display information hidden. This was not meant to be visible outside of the intended Location UI.
Known Issues:
We have received a few reports that when viewing the Bestiary a crash may occur if you are scrolling down the list too fast. We have been able to replicate this issue sporadically and are currently working on locking it down.
Lotia is Live!
The time has finally arrived where we can proudly present to you a project that has been years in the making. It seems as if I cannot remember a time when we weren’t working on making Lotia a reality. We have learned so much in the process; it will be an experience that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.
We thank all of you for supporting us through this effort and truly hope that you feel it was worth the wait. We are eager to hear your feedback and look forward to our next project together! For now… I think we are going to take a good rest and see you in our dreams!
Windows: The full-release for Windows has officially launched! If you were a backer from our Kickstarter Campaign, and backed a reward that included a Windows version of Lotia, you should be receiving an email shortly that will have your activation key. Please email jade@crayonponyfish.com if you run in to any trouble, and we will work out any issues together.
Mac OSX: The full-release for Mac OSX will be launching Wednesday, June 7th. We are currently working through an issue with Steam’s latest SDK and would like to clear that up before releasing it on the marketplace. For backers on Kickstarter that backed a reward that included a Mac OSX version of Lotia, we will be more than happy to send you a separate version of the game until the Steam release is ready to go. Please send an email request to jade@crayonponyfish.com, and we can get you squared away.
We apologize for any inconvenience but believe this is the best way to get Lotia to you! Once again, we could not be more thankful for all the love and support... could have never done it without you!

Demo Update 1.3.031217
We want to thank all of you very much for the great feedback and your willingness to share your experiences with us. We have made some updates and there is still one outstanding bug that we are currently working on.
Lotia Demo Update:
Corrected a bug that was causing party buffs to carry over after battle. This would make it seem like you were actually going down in certain stats when leveling up.
Added additional description text to the Crimson Stimpack and Azure Stimpack. Crimson Stimpack will increase the target's Dreamsoul by 100 permanently. The Azure Stimpack will increase the target's Elemental Points by 100 permanently.
Added and additional check that prevents players from leaving Nimbus without first speaking to the Gold Coin.
Updated the Item interface to no longer display independent items in a confusing way. They will now list the number of items as stacked, instead of itemized (Minor Tonin x2 instead of Minor Tonin 1/200, Minor Tonin 2/200).
Updated Collision in the north-west hill in Gnehx Garden.
Known Bug:
Currently there is a bug that may cause you to crash while viewing the bestiary. We are currently looking into this and will patch as soon as we have a fix. If you experience this bug, please send all relevant information to support@crayonponyfish.com or post a comment here. Thank you!
