[ 2023-04-16 22:23:55 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.7 is now live!!
We've added three new languages: Japanese, Trad. Chinese and Korean.
Fixed the bug that could prevent from progressing in 8 stones level (laser shooting the stone puzzle).
Enjoy the game!
[ 2020-09-07 10:24:38 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.6 is now live!In this patch update, we addressed the bug at the ending which sometimes could prevent you from completing the game.
Laser cannon targeting was made a bit easier in the 8 stones and Planetarium.
Enjoy the game!
[ 2020-07-11 19:47:02 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.5 is now live!The cube mechanic was a bit too clumsy. We reworked it for a better experience. You can now pick/drop the cube with a left mouse click or cross button on your gamepad.
Here is it in action:

With the new cube manipulation, we also had to move the art piece in the Stonehenge.
There was also inaccessible art piece in the Planetarium level.

We also tweaked various sound effects, visuals and some puzzles.
And few bug fixes. Thank you for reporting them!
[ 2020-06-22 02:50:15 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.4 is now live!Building on macOS is alchemy steamsalty and sometimes the build is hit or miss.
The last one was miss... as there were, out of nowhere, broken shader compilations which resulted in non working post processing effects.
This patch should remedy that.
Also in this patch there is updated steam plugin. The last one we did use, felt a little bit wonky.
It should be more reliable and the overlay should work properly.
For the next update:
We'll take a look on the clumsy mechanic of dragging the crystal cube.
Summary
Fixed:
- build had broken compiled shaders
- minor bugs
Maintenance:
- updated steam plugin
Thanks for your support!
[ 2020-06-12 20:00:38 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.3 is now live!In this version you find bunch of fixes and one critical bug (introduced with the previous patch steamfacepalm), which prevented completing the game.
Apologies to those who were already at the end in the Planetarium level. Next run of that level will work as expected.
Some of the players had feedback about the smooth camera look. There is now toggle in the settings to turn it on or off.
Summary
Fixes:
- exit button on some puzzles was misaligned
- end game loop bug
Improvements:
- option to turn on/off smooth camera look
Thanks for your support!
[ 2020-06-12 04:22:27 CET ] [ Original post ] Version 1.0.2 is now live!Just a quick info on the 2 updates that we made since the release.
As we made last minute modifications in the graphics department, few bugs arose and slip through our fingers.
Luckily bug reporting is working and we got alerted pretty fast steamhappy
We managed to smash these bugs:
- vanishing portal in Stonehenge
- unsolvable puzzle in 8 Stones
- gamepad support in Maze
- achievements reporting
Also there is improvement in the LODs of the foliage. That nasty popping should be vastly reduced.
Enjoy the game!
Thank you for your support.
