- New 2ndary Launch Option - 23 January 2017
I just added a version that doesnt require Xinput Dll libraries to be installed on your operating system This is due to a fair number of individuals having problems with the launcher receiving error "Unable to find Xinput1_4.dll" Dll files are used for applications to communicate with eachother and sometimes hardware. Generally Windows Vista and onward have The Xinput libraries installed. Sometimes a file or more within the library may be altered or replaced causing issues with other programs. I have since begun to move away from using those libraries myself but this game still utilizes them I apologize for any inconvenience this may hold, but I offer a 2ndary launch option (No Xinput) which should be made available in the next hour via steam. If you do not see this option, uninstall Tyrfing, and Reinstall it. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience, hope this new launch option helps

- Thanks for your Support! - 19 January 2017
Well its about 3:50 am and Ive been up for the past 18 hours helping the early buyers get their bonus keys. I will continue accepting Friend requests from 12:00 pm EST till 5:00 pm EST on Thursday January 19th 2017, please send your request before then :-) If you add me dont fret I will eventually accept, I just might be in bed, thats all. ^_^ Im happy to say that so far I have received very gracious and generous amounts of appreciation for my gesture. I do want you guys to know that even though Tyrfing Vanilla is the old version, it still offers a tonne of content and I do what I can to continue supporting this old version. Vanilla has: *10 bosses, * over 300 level configs * 50 + power ups * Random elements for lots of replayability. This game, as it is was valued at 7.99 US To get it through Indiegala, you're getting an 8.00$ game for almost 50 cents That's AWESOME imho. This game is…

- Indiegala hump day - 18 January 2017
Update : The upgrade key is for TRUE supporters of this project - Please let me explain: The indie gala hump day purchasers do not qualify for a free steam key HOWEVER I will accept some responsibility for my lack of clarvoyance I will give keys to Indiegala humpday buyers Until Tomorrow (Thursday Jan 19 2017) , and thats it. I think that is fair yeah? My policy is transparency, any information I can give I will (outside of my bank info) (Edit : holy crap my fingers are cold this morning, TYPOS everywhere LOL) To be clear, im using indie gala partially as a desperation move. You might not realize that I lost my job in January of 2016 and I havent found comparable employment since. What this means is, Im working odd jobs to fund this games development. I got some help from 378 and KS (believe me I needed it) Financially this thing has been a real struggle from beginning till end though.…

- A point of Clarity on the Upgrade Key - - 6 January 2017
As mentioned in the previous announcements, I will be accepting upgrade requests up until January 1st. January 1st has come and gone. Ive accepted all requests well beyond the deadline and even request from people who bought keys from G2A and Indiegala in bundles at a huge discount. I even supplied keys to people who never officially bought the game Just because I did not want to inconvenience the real customers by interrogating every request : I will still accept upgrade key requests, however l from this point onward require a proof of purchase such as a receipt to prove that you've owned the game for more than 2 weeks and I will need this in picture form (jpg or png) - Or that you played This version |Vanilla| beyond 2 hours. If the reasons arent obvious, its because I cant have people buying this version, getting a free key for the new verion and then Refunding this, effectively gett…

- Return to Old assets - 10 December 2016
This Page will display the old assets from this point onward *** This is to avoid future confusion **** This page will remain up until 2017, giving ample time to insure the up to date game keys are distributed. I have to apologize for the inconvenience But please allow me to clarify why Im doing things like this. Cant you use an automated website - - In theory yes, I can build a moderately useable site to distribute keys and make a list of all the steam users. But there are 2 inherent obstacles 1) I have to data mine for all the users who own this game, and to get the resources for that is not easy, and as Valve changed things a few months ago even data mining sites like GreenDB appear to be no longer functional - Its simply not reliable. 2) Once I have that list, Id have to have some sort of encryption code to send to them, Otherwise some crazy Russian Hacker can just grab the names fr…

- an update to the update Steam keys and whats going on Don! - 15 October 2016
Again, I cannot stress enough that I'm sorry for being confusing. If its any consolation, im about as confused as you guys might be. For the foreseeable future I will be publishing on this store page, app id 429430. Originally the plan was that I would have publishing rights on the new page 513470. I was under the impression that this was due to numerous security factors. A big one being that I have no way of knowing how many steam keys were produced when BlackShellMedia held the reigns as publisher. What this means is that in theory they could produce an unknown number of keys and keep them tucked away to resell later. Im not saying that Black Shell Would do such a thing of course however the possibility that this could happen poses a problem for devs, and Valve. Why? ------------------------------------- Lets say that a partner produces 50,000 keys and doesn't tell anyone about them.…
- Just a faux Update - sit tight - 3 October 2016
We've run into a small hiccup with the transferal of publishing rights. Long story short, it seems blackshellmedia is still the owner of the app. We cant be having that, as the termination of the contract means I am to have full rights. There is a lot of confusion and I dont think there is anyone to blame. I messaged BlackShellMedias owner Daniel Doan on Friday around 4 pm AST He was at twitch con and so I didnt expect a reply until today - still no reply yet though. I sent another email at 3:45 AST and am hoping to hear back from him soon so we can get this resolved. :-( Thanks for being patient folks!

- What to Expect in 'Tyrfing Cycle's' New Build - 29 September 2016
We are going to make this new Build Available very soon, Im working very diligently As is 378 Publishing to make sure that people know this game exists / will exist.! A lot of Bullpucky happened over the past 15 days that really had nothing to do with Game development (See the other announcement -_-) This stuff happens though and unfortunately I have to sometimes wear my ‘Businessman hat’ Which I assure you is not a top hat or a fedora (they don’t suit my face) I felt compelled to release 2 statements, one regarding the lawsuit, and more importantly, this one regarding the game. Im going to take this opportunity to open the community up for you guys, talk about a lot of the changes that have happened and what In particular I would like to hear in terms of feedback. All feedback is important of course, but there are some changes that are fairly drastic and I personally feel that they add…
