Hey Vikings,
As you know we've been working on lots of new features for you in the next update. We're about done with this work, but we've encountered an issue with save game integrity. We don't feel confident that we have the time to test every eventuality related to this on the current timeline. Save game integrity is of paramount importance in a game like ASKA, and we cannot risk this going out with even the tiniest chance might corrupt your save game.
As such, we’re taking the difficult decision to delay the update one week to October 14th.
The extra time will also allow us to fix extra bugs, in addition to the already-announced features. The features we have already announced are not changing, so you can still look forward to them on the new date.
We really appreciate your patience and how understanding you’ve been about the previous delay already, and we want to make it really clear we’d rather release something late that was properly ready for you instead of rushing it out on Monday and it affecting people’s save games negatively.
Hopefully you can hold out for one more week while we finish testing what we need to, and as a reminder if you have any questions about the new update, you can join our weekly dev stream tomorrow night at 6.30pm BST over at twitch.tv/sandsailorstudio or ask in our forums here, or in Discord.
All the best,
Sand Sailor Studio
