I haven't been about for a few weeks, busy moving house, and now that I finally got my PC set up, what better way to relieve the stress of moving than to sit down with a few ambient master levels? Granted, I didn't have my net connection yet, but Steam's "offline mode" would more than suffice...
All was going well - so well in fact, that I managed to obtain the Ambient Master achievement! However, it would appear that my achievement hasn't been stored beyond my offline session; I definately had the achievement (as far as Osmos was concerned) as I saw it in the achievements screen before closing the game. Now if I start Osmos in online mode, I'm able to access beyond level 3 in all ambient forever levels, but no ambient master achievement is listed!
I'll no doubt play through the levels again while online (or rather the x-4 level to trick Osmos into thinking i've just passed level 3
), but just wondered if this is an Osmos issue, or Steam? I can't recall ever "losing" an achievement due to offline status, but I'm really not sure. Looking through the Osmos log file I see no record of the achievement being obtained, but I'm 100% certain I had it - I can't emphasize enough how sure I am this was listed in Osmos' achievements screen! This may well be expected functionality, but it was a tad frustrating when I restarted and saw I had to do that bloody level with the antimatter again... ;DIncidentally, Osmos is a brilliant game for destressing following a house move. I thoroughly recommend it
