I purchased the game a year or so ago and wanted to wait till it was updated to play it again. But I can’t figure how to update it! Please help

You should have received a email when you purchased the alpha. That will give you a link to update to the latest version through Humble Bundle or you can get a steam key from the email, and that will give you the latest stable build (or unstable by choice).

Hope this helped 😉

hey there @SandGeneral … welcome aboard! 😄

in addition to what @Stoneheartfan mentioned, you can also follow this guide (to get the latest builds automatically via Steam, if you’re playing that version)…
