Primordia Patch Incoming

After a long development and testing process, we are gearing up to release what we hope will be our last substantive update to Primordia (we may release future hotfixes if bugs are found).

Among the changes:

• The underlying game engine is updated to a recent version that is much more compatible with today's hardware (such as widescreen monitors and Logitech mice) and operating systems (such as Windows 10).
  
• The French, German, and Spanish translations are now fully integrated into the game, and do not require separate downloads. Those translations have also been updated and improved in various ways.
  
• An additional music track, which had been mistakenly deactivated, has been reactivated in an important scene.
  
• A persistent crash relating to how the underlying game engine handled dynamic sprites has been fixed.
  
• Various small fixes have been implemented to issues like sprites occasionally being misaligned by a pixel, or the years-long labeling oddity that could arise if players combined the sensor parts in an unusual order.
  

Unfortunately, old saved games will be incompatible with the update due to our upgrading the underlying game engine. We apologize for the inconvenience or annoyance that will cause -- if you are midway through playing and do not want to restart, we recommend finishing the game soon. Our view was that the update merited the disruption to saved games because it will allow Primordia to continue to be enjoyed on newer systems.
