Today we are updating with an important (if very rare) bugfix. There was an issue where *spoilers ahead* [spoiler]damage done by the parasite ability did not properly send life back into the crack system[/spoiler]. This could be made into a spiral of fail (by a truly dedicated player) that might create an impossible to recover from resource situation. We have a fix, as well as an attempt to correct the problem in save files of affected players.
Special thanks to Jetz on the forums, who spent a lot of time isolating the problem and sent us incredibly useful save files and repro steps. The bug was rare enough that no one else has ever reported it, but Jetz pushed the system as far as it would go and uncovered the issue.
As always, we are super grateful to our awesome players. Thanks for checking out the game and hope you have enjoyed it!
-Question
You are the protagonist of an unfinished 1st person fantasy game, trapped in development hell. The designers (played by James Urbaniak, Ashly Burch, and Karen Dyer) are god-like, but so indecisive that they've given you no powers whatsoever. With the help of a mysterious disembodied voice (Stephen Russell) you must seize the tools of game development from these unworthy 'gods', uncovering more of the darkly comic story as you go. Rather than traditional puzzles with a single solution, the incomplete state of each environment is a question that you answer in your own way. Trap the designers' creations, steal their behaviors, and re-mix them to explore and master this world-in-progress. Can you out-think the game gods? Can you ship The Magic Circle from inside it?
