Thanks to all the developers for their continuing improvements and fixes !! Did I ever say I love this game

Yes, many thx to the many !


Will this update upset present games?

No, it shouldn't upset ongoing games.

Should be OK to add and continue to play on.

thx!!

Still no update using in game update. Any ETA guys?

Slitherine's offices are in London. When we QA vetted and approved the patch updater earlier today, around noon our time, the workday had already finished in London. If past is prologue, we might expect to see the v1.22 Update posted early tomorrow morning.

Thanks Berto !

Hi Everyone,

The patch should be live at 3pm BST (2mins from now!!)

Thanks, Sam. The linked-to patch updater EXE checksums correctly, all looks good.

Any chance that the powers that be at Matrix/Slitherine will put this out on Steam ?

Matrix's downloads are a pain to use, and the updates only seem to work less than half the time.

I already own this game on Matrix, but want a Steam release so that I can have quick and reliable dowloads and updates.

My computer is already too bloated and I can't afford keeping games installed on the off chance that I'll get around to playing them sometime. I'll probably have to take a pass on any future Matrix/Slitherine releases that don't have Steam keys from the get-go.
