0.36 Crashing on Startup Issues.

Hello,

Updated on 14th of November:

What was causing this? Avast

There is a solution. It's simple, you have to update to Avast ver 11.1 (update the program not the virus definition)

It should work after doing that.

Why it has been delayed? - Some thoughts and explainations + final (0.35a) changelog

Hello,

As you've probably seen the game's release date has been delayed. Why? It was delayed because I probably set the release time wrong.. It was saturday on my side and.. according to their rules - they can't release games on the weekends.

The new, confirmed release date is: November 2nd, 09:00 AM PST.

Final 0.35 Changelog:



- New UI Overhaul in Side Campaign
- New Tutorial
- Remade Survival Mode
- New saving system (a mix of registry and "to-file" saving)
- AI tweaks
- Steam Integration
- Steam Achievements.
- Bug fixes.

Happy waiting :D
PS: I hope it will be the final release date and everything's going to go as smooth as I want it to.
