Wishbone: Edit:
Of course, Steam is the only place any info about this is posted. Nothing on GOG, nothing on Kickstarter.

muntdefems: Blergh, I hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it when indie devs get so Steam-centric. I'm fully aware that's where more than 95% of their income will likely come from, but come on! Copy&pasting their Steam announcement (plus a quick edit to replace any mention of Steam or any Steam-only feature/tool/whatever) can't be that hard and time consuming...
They probably informed GOG about it. As to their GOG's customers, well, there aren't any at the moment.

Thing is, they don't have a platform to talk to their customers in GOG, while they have one in Steam. They don't really even have customers in GOG, nor an official post about the game where they could post into until the game is out.

They could have made an kickstarter update for all their backers, but maybe they thought it wasn't worth it for just one day. Obviously they did mentioned the one day delay in their official twitter.

You're absolutely right about the GOG part. In fact, my previous post was more like a general rant directed at no one in particular, than an attack to Puzzling Dream for this specific slip.

However, I still think they should have posted an update on Kickstarter, even if it was only to announce a one-day delay, as they obviously deemed it worthy of being announced on Steam. I don't use Steam or Twitter (or any other social network for that matter), so KS updates are my only source of information for any game I back, and I'm left completely in the dark if devs don't bother to post updates on the very platform that allowed them to make their game in the first place. Kinda rude, if you think about it.

I don't do social media either. I just checked their twitter to see if they'd put something there, and only after already knowing it was delayed do to checking their Steam page. I don't have any Steam game, nor a Steam user. But nowadays I check it from time to time, as it has become probably the best game database for new and incoming games. So if I want to check the weekly new releases listed on metacritic, Steam is the easiest way to do it that I know of.

As for a kickstarter update for the delay; yes, I think they should have done one. I was quite on top of this game as to check about why it hadn't released yesterday, but I back a lot of games on kickstarter that I don't keep track as much of. So it would have been nice.
It uses Java? O_o
Hmmm.
