Stuff on Steam always seems to come out at about 6pm or so over here, It's kind of annoying if a game is supposedly due out on a day that I'm off work and I'm waiting for it to be available but end up not being able to get it on that day (or downloading it late at night and then waiting to play it another day) :P.
I can understand if there's a delay. The last few times I tried to use Unity I wound up with nothing but bots in my hand and had to destroy my friends' equipment to get anything done.
How do we do the update for Kindle? I'm currently re-downloading the Season Pass, since there's still no button for Rook City on the Expansions screen in the app.
If you don't see Rook City in the expansion packs screen, you don't have the 1.3.1 update yet. Try rebooting your Kindle to get the Appstore to update its data.
I tried going to the Sentinels page in the AppStore on the device, and there was a button that said "Update." So I'm trying that now. I'll update with news when/if it goes through!
Thanks for all the support, MigrantP! From one dev to another, I appreciate you guys being so involved with the community on launch day!
Wow. So I sat and watched it update and install the update, and saw a message saying that it was updated to 1.3.1 at such-and-such a time... and when I launch the game (even after a reboot), it still says it's 1.2.3 and doesn't show Rook City available.
Redownloading the Season Pass again, for lack of any other idea as to what to do.
That was a ridiculously fun game. Expat, Fixer, and Rook City Wraith took on Plague Rat in the Chemical Factory. The game ended with Fixer and Expat incapped, and Wraith at 1 hp. Inventory Barrage brought Plague Rat to 5, Sleuth dug through an Experimental Mutagen and then a Chemical Explosion took him out the rest of the way.

I have the Season Pass on Steam and it wouldn't update. It would finish downloading, a "Download queued" message would appear, and then nothing else would happen. If I clicked on the "Play" button, the download would begin again from scratch. I erased all the local content and tried downloading the entire thing from scratch and that's no longer working either. It finishes downloading, there's a brief "Updating" message and then the Sentinels of Multiverse tab goes gray as if I never tried to install it in the first place. I've tried re-installing the base game without the expansion content and again, no dice.
Fixer, Expat, Tempest, and Wraith vs. Plague Rat in Pike Industrial.
Took three tries, but I beat him. Simply brutal. Fixer sucking up the Infection attack and then using Double Crowbar to smack the Rat, double-dipping bonuses, was deadly, risky fun (as an aside, I didn't realize Double Crowbar worked that way... the things we can learn from the app!).
Got the update from the google play store, right at the select screen I already found a bug, which I thought was a massive oversight. I'm disappointed.
When you tried to view Ambuscade card the info is there but the image isn't on both sides...all I see is black.

Looks like the DLC got deleted or corrupted. Try re-downloading the DLC from the Get Expansion Packs screen.

No earlier than 9 Pacific. We cannot release anything on Steam until the Valve office opens.
We're still waiting on Apple review, but Steam+Android will launch today regardless. We'll have more details later today.

So at least 3 more hours. Cool
I've been watching the Daredevil series and now need to play Mr Fixer against the Chairman.

Is it wrong that I keep opening my Kindle to see if the Rook City download button is available yet?
I'm not obsessed! I've just been dying to throw down Fixer and Expatriette! Why are you looking at me that way!?
Amazon Appstore has its own review process but it's generally pretty short. It's been submitted there too and we'll post when it's available!

Just out of curiousity, how many channels and different OSs are you supporting?
I count:

I think it's really cool that you can support so many platforms. Is all the development done using Unity?

It's developed using Unity? Base version or Golem? Are you sacrificing equipment or hp to power this game? Enquiring minds want to know.
I can understand if there's a delay. The last few times I tried to use Unity I wound up with nothing but bots in my hand and had to destroy my friends' equipment to get anything done.

Andy: the rules engine is developed in straight C# as a library, we use Xamarin as an IDE for that. The UI is all Unity3D.

At the end of the post it says the app is on sale for 20%. Is it that or 20% off? Bit of a difference.
Thanks, we'll fix that! It's 20% off.

Is it 20% off the price or content?
What?
It's 20% off the price. Sorry, but I don't know what "20% off the content" would even mean.

You only get 80% of the heroes, villains, environments. The randomizer decides which ones.
Wow. SotM is much less expensive on Amazon than on Steam...
Well, that sounds like a *great* idea, in the spirit of the Black Friday sale for Cards Against Humanity! xD
Dang it. That's what I get for betting on Steam.

I just tried that, and there weren't any new updates available. :( Trying again.
I see that it's v1.3.1 on Amazon's site, but I'm not getting any updates yet.
I know it'll be there soon. I'm just impatient, is all. :)
Yeah, I reinstalled it, redownloaded the season pass, then restarted my device and did it again, nothing so far.
Yup, still 1.2.3 here. Three reboots, nothing. Starting to remember the definition of insanity. ;)
Soon!
It's Apple's fault. No one can have it until THEY say so.
Here's a page with some instructions that might help. However in general this seems to be a common frustration for Kindle users..

mine said it was already updated.
It is not.
Sadness.

Yeah, not sure what's going on, but this thing doesn't seem to be happening. I guess I'll try again later.

I just opened my Steam window for a look and it's showing that it's completed an update for Sentinels, so presumably I have Rook City now :).

Which DLC should I redownload the Ambuscade DLC or Rook City...It was fine before the Rook City Update, now I can't see him on his card.
