Hello mateys!

We have grown a lot through the development and release of Yrminsul and we are happy to tease our new project: Orphan Age

http://studioblackflag.com/

Orphan Age is an exploration and sim game where you have to help a gang of kids through a cyberpunk civil war. We plan to release it towards the end of the year for PC, Mac & Linux.

A closed beta will be announced this summer too!

More will be disclosed soon! Check our Twitter & Facebook!

See you soon mateys!

Yrminsul 1.51 is live! On the menu bug fixes and quality of life changes thanks to the community's feedback!

• Instability on OS X: that was a tough one. Yrminsul was tested on a lot of configurations. While it was running fine 9 times out of 10, frame drops could occur. We have deactivated Vsync by default, it gives a significative gain of FPS on most configurations!
  
  
• Evolution Screen Locked: Conflict between saves could freeze all the saved games, it's fixed and you're saves are now working properly! Yay!
  
  
• Settings not saved: This bug occurred mostly on Linux, it is no longer an issue because me have made...

• Options Screen Remake: Totally revamped screen with new graphics, new options and no save bug anymore. You can play in windowed mode enable or deactivate V-Sync, rebind the speed up shortcup. There is unfortunately a little issue with dropdowns menus (click on the left side of the option to select it)
  
  
• Crusade Attacks: We have revamped the Crusade. It will prioritize your weak points and won't crash on the same Island like before.

• The small Spiders are a bit easier to crush (they still are pesky little things though)
  
• In fast mode and at normal speed, Infamy is collectible for a longer time, making it easier to catch
  
• The Self-Tower-Defense IV achievement is now obtainable. Build those turrets!
  
• Enemies' collisions on Black Flag Island and Drake Island have been optimized
  
• The proper amount of turrets slots are displayed on the map
  
• Let's say goodbye to the Escape Key the ambush exploit ^^
  
• The Steam Overlay pauses the game properly
  
• The proper preparation background is now displayed
  
• The Red Canyon's is displayed on the map as a dangerous Isle to attack, beware!

That's it for now! Thanks a lot for your criticism, your kind words, your feedback and your support.

Hi folks! First of all thank you for all the feedback, whether it was negative or positive, it was really constructive and let's talk about what next! But first, please consider liking this page[www.thunderclap.it], we only need 36 people to share it!


We didn't want the release of Yrminsul to be seen as a disguised Early Access and we have put a lot of efforts into polishing it. Unfortunately some bugs have broken through all were added to our Bug Tracking Board: https://trello.com/b/AH440dKl/yrminsul-bug-tracker

As much as we want to, we cannot solve all the issues as fast as we want yet. We'll try to push the update until friday and we can expect a validated publication before next monday. Here are our top priorities:


Those are our top priorities, they are game breaking and we want to fix them ASAP. We are talking about:

• Instability on Mac - Yrminsul was fully tested on Mac before the release, no bugs where spotted yet it seems that it depends on the configuration.
  
• Conflict between saves leading to the impossibility to access the Evolution panel. It's a tricky one which wasn't easy to replicate but we have found what causes it and the save system is being fixed as now as I'm writing this post :)
  
• The option menu doesn't save the settings - This menu is the only half-assed feature in Yrminsul it will get a complete overhaul.
  
• Last but not least - Windowed borderless mode - By our fault it was deactivated when we built the steam version of Yrminsul, it will be activated again for the v1.51 Yay!

Minor bugs and quality of life updates

• The Crusade attacks always the same islands - we have totally changed the algorithm. It is already fixed and will be published.
  
• Option screen overhaul - bugs, missing key rebinds and uglyness, we'll make a brand new screen. It was already in works but not yet ready for the Steam Release.
  
• Make ii clearer that the Red Canyon needs something special to be won
  
• Improving the spiders hitboxes and fixing enemies' collisions in some levels
  
• Can't unlock the Slef-Tower-Defense Achievement has been fixed and is waiting to be published

The yellow and green tasks are mostly cosmetic or typos.

We probably won't be able to solve more issues but keep posting your bug reports and suggestions, we love your feedback!

Thanks a lot for your support and have fun!

Yrminsul is finally available for PC, Mac & Linux! Have fun mateys!

Feel free to share any feedback we'd love to hear it. Oh and while we're at it, it would help a TON if you could help us spread the word about Yrminsul by simply sharing this page[www.thunderclap.it].

If you have bought Yrminsul in a previous Bundle, we are in the process of delivering your Steam Keys. Though, if you have bought Yrminsul in a Indie Royale Bundle, it will be simpler to contact us directly[studioblackflag.com]:

Thanks will obviously go to all of our greenlight and Indiegogo backers who basically made it happen. We hope you'll find Yrminsul worthy of the wait!

Yaaaaaaaar!
