Game design oversight: The Player is supposed to build a relationship/identify with the main protagonist, but he is barely visible on a 4k screen. 

Made a screenshot and compared it with a screenshot of Hollow Knight. 86x98 versus 118x268 pixels - almost 4 times smaller.

All 3 official stores are pretty much the same. Buying it off the main site is a tad more smooth when you want to get Vintagehosting or the Supporter Addon.

It's written in the first paragraph of the games description, but i can make the wording more explicit.

Feel free to request a refund if the account requirement doesn't suit you.

Sorry to hear you were having login troubles, please write us a support ticket on our site at https://www.vintagestory.at/support with your infos so we can help you out.

See first senctence in the game description - you can get your key on the itch.io website itself.

If you still have the original game key from itch.io, you can email us that on our contact form on vintagestory.at and we can look up what email it is assinged to

This is still an issue and it still looks awful.

Please send us your original game key using the contact form at the bottom of the page at https://www.vintagestory.at/
We'll take a look then.

yes, should be fine to do so

So if you are looking to download the game you have to do that on https://account.vintagestory.at/

The account on vintagestory.at is when you want to write on the forums or make more purchases.

do you main the main website at vintagestory.at or account.vintagestory.at? for the former you can redeem an account when logging in on the latter

"If you really cared you would give nothing to the platform that hosts your game" is a strange sentiment to have.

Yes, but requires 4 game accounts -  there is a family pack on our main site

Good point, that would make a lot of sense. Never occured to me that itch.io had an api for this

Glad to hear you got it working. I do regret that its not a very user friendly setup.

No, this is not broken abandonware. You need to redeem the game key as shown here: https://itch.io/post/2085144

It is a link that lets you set up a game account - which is required to play VS

Should be in your library - https://itch.io/my-collections

internet is needed only once when you first start the game, after that it can be purely offline

Hehe, more simple than that - https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=PITA

I'd love support mac if it werent such a PITA to work with.

Just one time. After that you can remain offline and the game will keep on working.

Indeed. For reference this is how my game page looks like on 4k - quite jarring.

It works the same way as with minecraft - you can host for free locally, through port forwarding or via vpn e.g. hamachi.

If you need a 24/7 online server with good connection bandwidth and easier setup a paid server is better, yes.

Would much appreciate if a theme background image could be set to scaling. As of right now you can make it either look good on an HD screen or a 4k screen, but not both.

If you upload a hd image - it repeats or cuts off on 4k screens
If you upload a 4k image - it is heavily zoomed in on an hd monitor.

I see. I uploaded a different background and increased the opacity now, that should hopefully help with readability.

Hey, not a fan of full bold sentences but i rephrased the text to be more clear now, hope that helps.

👍

Sorry to hear you had a bad time. We hare happy to help - our official support channel is through the main sites support ticket system - https://www.vintagestory.at/support/

When requesting a password reset - please disable BitDefender, if you have it installed. It silently blocks all requests to our site, for no apparent reason and its the only application that seem to do that.

Also feel free to request a refund through itch.io.

It is PC-independent, but you need one account for each player. They all need to log in once, after that you can play offline. For an offline LAN party you might need to set VerifyPlayerAuth to false in the serverconfig.json before launching a game server, otherwise I think they won't be able to connect

After purchase, please redeem your key on the itch.io "My Purchase" page - it is a link that lets you create a game account to log in to the game.

Hi, currently no, sorry

https://www.vintagestory.at/roadmap.html/

Ah yes, don't need to pay extra to switch OS, just download whichever version you need

I never used the app so I can't tell I'm afraid.

Oh, that's weird. I was not aware of that

Ok, added a sentence there. It's right below the downloads section on itch.io:

(please note, its not called steam key, its the first google image search result)

Read the first sentence of the game description here on itch.io

Lovely game. Great work on the ambient and music, it makes for a really soothing experience!
The island was quite a challenge! I just barely made it. All in all, surely worth paying for ^_^

2 bugs that were quite apparent:
- When accidently placing a toxin scrubber out of range of electricity, then placing any others nearby that do have electricity have no effect
- The bee sprites gfx seem to break down into weird yellow pixely globs when its raining

Oh yea, I was also kinda hoping that when after I finished the island I'd be rewarded with a "Congrats, you made it!" screen with some bonus gfx/sfx.

Yes, currently you need a game account in any case, but it lets you skip the site/forum account when buying it from itch/humble. I've now added a notice to that paragraph on the site so its more clear. Sorry for the confusion.

The download provided on the itch.io site is the full game, I'm not sure about the itch.io app, I never tried that one.
