Another Star on Steam has been updated to version 3B, which contains some minor bug fixes and finally fixes support for the recent OS X El Capitan update. Please report any problems that you are having with the new version, so that they can be fixes as soon as possible. You can return to version 3A by selecting it from the "betas" tab after right clicking on the game in your Steam library. Here is the change list:

ADDITIONS

Added a last-resort legacy mode for very old OpenGL 2.x systems that can be enabled using the command line arguments "-l" or "legacy". Will create lots of visual artifacts and messes up the non-square aspect ratio of the game, but should at least allow the game to run on really old laptops and such.

FIXES

Sounds effects are not automatically re-enabled on startup if they were disabled in the user's settings, or using command line arguments.
Made minor tweaks to OpenGL extension functions to allow startup using OpenGL 2.x drivers that have certain OpenGL 3 capabilities but don't consider them to be extensions for whatever reason.
Fixed a bug introduced in Version 3A that prevented the game from ignoring repeated keyboard input from holding down a key.
Fixed a number of issues that were preventing the OS X version from booting in El Capitan.
The progress meter should now correctly reset when erasing a save and starting a new game in that slot.
More typo corrections.

Another Star is a console-style RPG with a fast-paced battle system and a world that encourages players to explore and discover hidden areas as they lead their party on a journey across a fantasy world. While clearly influenced by the style and gameplay of the past, the game also implements innovations and ideas from the present. Secrets are hidden everywhere, and you never know what you might find on the next screen.

Our story begins with Tachi, the prince of Clan Minas, eager to prove himself as a warrior. Under his father's orders, Tachi is sent on a mission to retrieve a fallen star in the hopes that it will bring power and glory to his clan. But before long, Tachi's quest spirals out of control with clans betraying each other in the hope of getting the star's power for themselves. Thus begins a chain of events that will set Tachi on a journey across the entire planet, eventually learning the true nature of the fallen star he had once hoped to harness.
