Thanks Eddy, appreciate your understanding and quick responses to your growing fan base. In the interim is there a way for us to revert back to the previous version?

Yeah, that would be really appreciated. I want to FINALLY play Osmos again, without that latest patch (which, frankly, sucked).

Hi guys,

Unfortunately there's no way to revert to a previous version with Steam.

Believe it or not, I've played Osmos a lot with this feature and haven't triggered the menu once. Usually the player mote isn't that big, and you can click anywhere else on the screen to propel yourself, not just near the player, so I find it easy to avoid. I realize I'm not a typical player though. It was added for the people asking for a keyboard-free play option, but it looks like it's bothering more people than it satisfied. It should have been optional... sorry.

In the meantime I'm on the road with a machine that I can't build a new Steam version on; and Dave's on honeymoon. But I'll update this as soon as I'm back to my usual dev machine.

Thanks,
Eddy

Thanks for the reply Eddy. Sorry you guys have been so busy...with Dave getting married and everything. I hope he's having a great time.

Hey Eddy, it's good to hear from you. I hope you (or someone else) will be able to patch Osmos soon. I really miss playing it. In its current state, however, it's no fun at all, at least for me. I really wonder how you can play without triggering the menu all the time... It sure seems like I'm not the only one who can't.

I always hit the menu too, your not the only one...

cant play it since 3 days..
error message: "this game is currently unavailable. please try again at another time."

how to fix it?

hey jhead,

that sounds like a steam problem. are you getting that with other games on the service? if not, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game... hopefully that will fix it. (don't worry you won't lose your progress.)

cheers,
eddy

thx for your answer.

no, the other games work fine.
and after a reinstall it still does not work.

i searched a bit with google. other players have the same problem.

What does that have to do with the annoying menu...

Also, is there a date for when this update will be fixed? I can't really play the game with this update.
