Updating the Update!
A new patch for Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space? Or did we screw up and send out an old press release?
No,
it is indeed a new patch for the PC version of Weird Worlds: Return to
Infinite Space, and yes, there was a recent patch for the game already.
You see, beta testing is
not an exact science. No matter how often
you withhold food and water from your testers, beat them with rubber
hoses, or force them to listen to Celine Dion, a bug or two can still
slip past them.
The version 1.21 upgrade corrects one error that
slipped past the testers. The Primordius event was not working
properly, with the wrong star name displayed. Fearless tester Ernest
Adams though found this bug and brought it to the attention of the
wizardly trio of Digital Eel. Digital Eel immediately sprang into
action and whipped up a new patch that neutralized this error.
There
are no other changes between the version 1.21 patch and the recent 1.2
patch, but obviously you'll want to have the latest and greatest patch.

Worlds, working on both boxed and download copies. The Mac patch is
still in the works.
