The Humble Link in your email offers the .zip with a steam key. Not sure if that post is just being funny, though.

Ha! Same here, though I haven't bought it yet. Have to sit through a few hours of meetings before I can buy it. Game unlocks in 2 hours on Steam!

**Eldelphia** · 2014-02-18 12:14

First thing in ages I've really looked forward to

**Arkanna** · 2014-02-18 13:12

It's unlocked on Steam now, btw.

**Waraji** · 2014-02-18 13:22

I need more BABIES! I have surpluses of most things except animals and CHILDREN. My people are dying of old age (very old for some people), and I need more children to work the goddamn land! MORE BABIES ARE REQUIRED! HAVE MORE SEX, PEOPLE!

30 min in and children dying from starvation. I like it

**Lucavi** · 2014-02-18 18:27

Food is pretty much the biggest obstacle to tackle early on. I'm in summer of year 19 and reproduction is killing me. 15/0/3 and I had 40/0/0 about 4 years prior. I still have half of my living citizens over 65, and when they die, I'm probably done. Too many services to keep going with such a small group.

Going to shoot for an early chapel next time to keep people happy and hopefully breeding.

**Cichy** · 2014-02-18 19:18

I ran out of tools which lead to like half my people dying by the time I built the blacksmith it was too late. This is gonna be lots of trail and error for me

**Kelenae** · 2014-02-18 20:48

Gotta build them houses so people move out and breed!

I had a measles outbreak that effected 40 of my township. Luckily i had 2 hopsitals so I only lost like 10 patents.

**Mistral** · 2014-02-18 23:33

Year 9, 38 Adults 10 Kids. Noone has died yet! I'm actually really impressed with myself. This is my first play-through, and I expected to die to my first "Winter is coming."

**tyven** · 2014-02-18 23:38

17+ years in and my population is steady hanging around 30. very frustrating. I have an absurd amount of food and resources but these fools keep dying of old age the second i get a new laboror

**Mistral** · 2014-02-19 00:27

Hahaha, someone was just trampled by a wild boar! What an excellent first death!

i'm starting on hard because fuck their automatic building placement. i found a map i liked so i saved before doing anything, then proceeded to basically lay out my initial town framework in pause (and saved again before actually starting), then paused the build of each building individually. Unpause game, unpause next building I want to build. Easy, right? FUCKING WRONG. you basically need three food sources, a woodsplitter, and one house by the first winter. Or else you die. once you make it past that first winter though shit starts to stabilize. can upgrade infrastructure and shit. that's where i'm at now.

Basically very similar to how I played. I took it VERY slow, making sure everything was balanced out - making sure to never speed up time past 5x.
