Please Help Us Nail Down Installation Issues


Dear shipmates,

From time to time we receive reports of users not being able to start Floating Sandbox anymore, either after an upgrade or after not playing the game for some time.

In many cases this is the result of users being a bit "too liberal" in moving files around, but in a few cases this is the result of a legitimate bug that might be affecting the Floating Sandbox installation.

In case you experience this issue again - i.e. Floating Sandbox refusing to start with some cryptic error message - please do the following:

1) Zip the content of the game folder - usually this is "C:\Users\<Your username>\AppData\Local\Floating Sandbox"

2) Zip the content of the game's *settings* folder - usually this is "C:\Users\<Your username>\AppData\Roaming\Floating Sandbox"

3) Send us a private friend request, so we may coordinate the transfer of the two ZIP files

Thank you in advance for your cooperation. The first user that provides ZIP files that are helpful in nailing down the issue, will get a special mention in the "Credits" box of the game!

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? 🎷😎

No? 😯 Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? 🎷

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

So here's the first of the zodiac signs i will make for the next weeks.
