    I was wondering if anyone was having problems with this game crashing on start up since IOS 8 came out. I haven't been able to play since the update of the IOS. I even deleted my game (I wasn't deep into it yet anyway) and the game still crashes.

    Playing on a 5s.

    I've read so many things about it and how good it is, I've became eager to play it again.

    The current version is incompatible with iOS 8, but I have uploaded a fix which should be available by Friday at the latest. Apple dictates the release dates of these updates, hence the semi-long wait.

    It's awesome to hear that. Thank you very much! There are no plans to stop development any time soon.

    We're just waiting for Apple to approve it. They're probably far behind since their wonderful iOS 8 update broke a ton of apps.

    Doesn't Apple allow developers to download upcoming iOS releases months before release so they can test their apps? That way devs can have a patch in the pipeline before the latest iOS iteration hits customers.

    I know that a few of my apps had updates for iOS 8 compatibility a couple days before release.

    You can test it with the beta, but that wouldn't have helped anyway since the engine we use wasn't compatible with iOS 8 anyway. It was more about waiting for the engine update (we don't use our own engine) than anything else. The engine developers claim that the iOS 8 beta was different from the release in such a way that it broke games created by the engine.

    I'm running out of names for Major Sigil bosses. If you guys have any more you want to see in the game, feel free to post multiple names now.

    So, it's been a little over two weeks, when will I be able to play siralim again on iOS 8? Any updates on the timeline to approval?

    Ain't mad or nuthin, just want to play! And if the update came out, Blech I didn't get it:(

    Also, major sigils, how about Stritcher? Leohena? Gristmurrol? Chunkish?

    I know, it's taking forever. My best guess is that it'll be out either on Thursday or Friday. From what I've seen, the average time it takes for Apple to approve an app has increased by 100% since they released iOS 8. Probably because the update broke so many apps and games.

    Update is out.

    I initially had an instant crash upon continuing my game. Went back in and no crash since.

    The A and B buttons were missing so I had the go into the settings and turn these buttons off and then on again in the options menu. (Done by pressing where the a and b buttons would normally be on the screen).

    So far rest is ok.

    The only crash I've seen for this patch in the last 2 weeks (aside from the loading crash Talbs mentioned, which seems to be fixed with a re-load) happens when you talk to a runaway creature for the "Subdue X Creatures" duty. Just avoid that duty for now.

    Patch is out, reviewed again. And the future online features... oh god the possibilities!

    Some guy outside the library talks about some secret passage, just "random talk" or i need to explore harder?

    There are lots of secrets in the castle. Some are simple shortcuts to get around more easily, while others are more substantial. :)

    Thanks for the review!
