Hooray! This day is finally here! Hello, dear fans and everyone who follows the game! I have finally released the long-overdue game update with the version number of 1.1. Unfortunately, it took over half a year for this update, which, of course, is a long time for a first patch. This update isn’t as massive or global as was initially planned, however, it does include several new interesting functions, such as LAN-based co-op. Besides that, Big Journey to Home is no longer in “beta” status on Android, and will soon appear in various stores (stay tuned for that). It’s possible that this version won’t be the last, as there are other fixes to be made and other features that need to be added. One of the major problems was running the game on OS X, and version 1.1 works on Macs without any issues or necessary external fixes, so people can enjoy the game! You may read about possible problems on the Steam discussion thread. Thanks to everyone supporting the game! Full changelog:

• The Android and OUYA versions are out of beta
• The OS X version now launches without issue. Some other features may still be unusable, though.
