Dear monarchs! Our developers have been working hard to resolve the issues that were introduced with the Never Alone update released on April 20th. We have now uploaded a hotfix to the public-test branch. Eager monarchs who want to help us test this hotfix and get back to playing can now access that branch and try it out. This branch contains the fix to two issues that is currently affecting all players. Here are the notes for the update:

• Fixed an issue where players loading older saves could not buy squires or ronin at the castle shield shop.
• Fixed an issue where players would lose all progress upon returning to a previously developed island.

To the players who have had their islands reset: If you have saved your game on another island than the one affected, there is a small chance that your island will be restored to its former glory the next time you return. Unfortunately, this will not be possible for all players affected by this bug, and we're sorry for the damage this has caused to your reigns if this doesn't fix your issue. We were not prepared for issues of this scale and are now doing our best to prevent them from happening again in future updates. Here's how to access the public-test branch: 1. Right-click the game in your Steam Library list 2. Choose Properties... 3. In the "Betas" tab, choose public-test in the dropdown menu. 4. Wait for the game to update to the new version Once we are sure the hotfix is working, it will be moved out of the test version and published for all players. We are also planning a second hotfix update at a later date which will contain fixes to additional new bugs that have been reported after the launch of Never Alone. Thanks for being so accommodating while we fix these issues!
