- Update October 10, 2015 - Fix crashes related to certain skills, improved fullscreen support, updated backend frameworks - 10 October 2015
If you've been unable to start the game Give it another try - might just work now! Otherwise, please check your launch options and try the following: Right click Dog Sled Saga in your Steam Library and choose "Properties" In the "General" tab, click "Set Launch Options" Type "-w" (for windowed) OR "-b" (for borderless windowed fullscreen) and hit ok Close the window and try running the game If the game has been crashing in the middle of races I fixed an issue in the last build (long standing, now!) that will resolve that issue. It has been a long time since we updated, but the project is picking up steam again! I experienced a long period of burnout that led to a fun side-project (FireWhip for iOS and Android) but also, unfortunately, an unproductive couple of months. Back on the horse, now - lots of substantial updates queued up! Additionally, happy birthday to half of the Dog Sled Sag…
