If you haven't had a chance to purchase Alum yet, and you want to purchase it for Steam or DRM-free, it is now available as a "pay-what-you-want" deal on Indiegamestand.com. If you pay over $1.23 you also get the Alum OST along with the game!

We're giving away the Alum sound track steam keys to anyone and everyone who will post a piece of artwork they do, inspired by Alum. It can be anything from a picture of a sketch, to a water colour painting, to a clay model. Whatever you want to do will be great. If you fudge it and post a stick figure that took you no effort or time, you will not qualify for a soundtrack key. (unless you clearly tried and just happen to not be an artist) ;)

With that being said, we look forward to seeing what you guys and girls can do!
The soundtrack give-away will end July, 1st. Have fun!

We are going to release an update later today that will fix the reported bugs.
-Kid behind pillar in chapter 3
-Purple Water in chapter 4
-Dashu's decoder while turret control is open
-Wires in chapter 7
-a couple other little things

Apologies to anyone who was defeated because of these bugs. The update should commence later today. Thank you for your patience and understanding. :)

Update: The new version will be pushed live shortly. However I wanted to discuss an issue with the AGS engine where major updates may break saved games. We fixed many bugs and found that previously saved games could no longer be loaded. Upon searching for alternate solutions, all that was found is other AGS games also running into the same issue.

In an effort to help minimize this issue, we have included saved games for each chapter in this latest update. These files can be located with the game files at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Alum\Alum Chapter Saves

If you wish to resume your gameplay from one of these saves, then you will need to move these saved games from the steam install directory above to the saved games directory. For example, on Windows 7 the saved games directory should be located at: C:\Users\[USER]\Saved Games\Alum

Other operating system saved game locations can be found here if necessary: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=840657

We apologize for this inconvenience, but it is important that we patch these bugs.
