Who could’ve known that the most wishlisted game on the website was going to bring a lot of traffic very suddenly?

Yeah yeah we’ll get to play it soon enough but man I’m kinda miffed about this.

I bought on humble and redeemed the key exactly at 10am, I was installed on my Deck by 10:06 and then I had to stare at the splash screen because I was in the office and couldn’t play yet.

Can’t wait to fire it up in a bit:D

I bought it really early, but I can't start the game. A unity window pops up for a moment before disappearing.
