Perfect Tides: Station to Station Demo - OUT NOW!

If you've enjoyed Perfect Tides, have I got a sequel for you. Perfect Tides: Station to Station, currently in development, has a free demo starting today!



To play, head to the Perfect Tides: Station to Station store page.

And while you're there, please wishlist the game! It keeps you abreast of game updates, feeds the Steam algo, and is a big help toward getting the word out about these games.

Hope you enjoy playing!

Perfect Tides 2.0 for Mac [BETA]

Perfect Tides for Mac now has the 2.0 update the PC version received last fall. This includes improvements to the UI and controller support.

For now, it is in Beta, and you can opt in by doing the following:
  • Navigate to Perfect Tides in Steam, and click the gear.
  • Go to the "Betas" tab.
  • Enter the code "macbetaplease" to opt in to the beta.


NOTES ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
  • This update will break saved games. To restore your saved games, remove the opt-in code and revert to the latest release version.
  • Steam Achievements do not work. The developer (me!) has sadly hit a wall with this one, but hopefully it can happen by the time this version leaves beta.


Please report any issues with this build to the #bug-reports channel on the Perfect Tides Discord server. Thanks and happy playing!

A Perfect Tides: Station to Station Demo Is Coming

Greetings from the other side of MAGFest! As it turns out, this has been quite the milestone for Perfect Tides: Station to Station. The demo played beautifully, with dozens of people racking up multiple days of gameplay. The feedback was tremendous and players were engaging deeply with the game.



So, what does this mean for us at home?
It means we are very close to an online demo. If all goes well, a playable build should be available by February. This version will include 1 full day (of 16) in the game's story, with about 30-60 minutes of gameplay.



To ensure you don't miss the announcement, here are some ways to stay in touch:



That's all for now - see you when there's more news! (Oh -- and if you were one of the people who demo'd the game at MAGFest, you have my utmost gratitude. We'll all be playing it soon, thanks to you!)

Perfect Tides v2.0.1

Patch fixes various UI and graphical bugs.

Please note that if you'd like to access your save files from before the 2.0 release, you can revert to the prior release by going to Properties -> Betas, and under Beta Participation selecting "Previous".
