Just a brief update on today's launch of Book Five: The final version has been uploaded to Steam (yay!) and the testers will have to do one final run-through of the episode to check that nothing has gone wrong in the build-and-upload process.

UPDATE: Mac OSX version was added to the beta branch this weekend. Version 3.2.8 has been released to the beta branch. This version, release candidate (RC) 5, is still Windows 64-bit only. On Thursday and Friday, we discovered some major issues with the game, which had to be fixed before we could officially release the Unity 5 update. These have now all been fixed, and we're currently targeting…
UPDATE: We've found a nasty blocker in the latest beta version (and quite possibly earlier versions as well). This blocker can, amongst other things, cause Kian to get stuck escaping Friar's Keep just prior to the confrontation with Warden Murron. We've fixed the problem and will publish a new beta tomorrow; this does mean, however, that we'll need to do another round of testing before we can r…
We've just put another beta update into the oven; feel free to take it for a whirl while it's baking. Previous caveats apply — and we're planning another update in the morning, since there are Known Issues, so this is NOT a release candidate. (Sorry.) (The next one will definitely be an RC.) We're still targeting a final release of the Unity 5 upgraded version this week. BOUNDLESS OPTIMISM. Any…

UPDATE: Bug reports have helped us eliminate most of the remaining issues with this release candidate. However, due to the memory leaks in Unity 5.2.1 and the broken lights in 5.2.2, we're currently waiting for a new Unity patch before building the next (and hopefully final) release candidate. We'll keep everyone updated on that. If you're already running the beta, your game should update autom…

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who's contributed so far! We've received more than one thousand bug reports, and we've gone through 'em all. Luckily, there are many duplicates, or we'd be exhausted. We're really excited to hear that performa…
We just uploaded the first Windows 64-bit Unity 5 beta version (3.2.0) to the beta branch. Read on for instructions about how to install this beta.
