Temporary Alternative Solution for Players Experiencing Crashes

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Dear Alchemists,

Thank you for your patience. We are still working on fixing the crash issues caused by the v0.4.1.3754 update, which may take some more time. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Currently, we have decided to provide an alternative solution, allowing players to optionally roll back to a previous version to play the game while waiting for fix update.

If you are interested in it, you can download this version by going to Steam - Library - Alchemy Factory - Properties... - Beta - Beta Participation - stable-3692. We recommend all players experiencing crash issues, as well as new players, to switch to the stable branch for gameplay.

It's important to note that this version will not include all subsequent updates, nor will it be compatible with all future save data. Only save data that was last saved before v0.4.1.3754 can be correctly loaded by the game. For your reference, we have created a sheet.

Thank you!
