Issues fixed
Crash on load of save game
Sometimes, the game crashes when trying to load your save game, essentially forcing you to restart from the beginning[1]. Fortunately, developer Hothead created a patch that fixes the issue in many cases; unfortunately, the patch was not published on Steam and needs to be applied manually. Due to the age of the game and the discussion surrounding this issue, as of 2017, the documentation on this fix is hard to find.

Notes
- ↑ Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/18050/
. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (18050) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
