Stained Steam Key Resolution

A Steam community announcement from realaxis has a follow-up on the report that purchasers of the Indie Royale Debut 3 Bundle were not receiving their promised Steam keys for Stained. The initial post clarifies that the real issue here was not sending out multiple keys to the same players, and an update that followed says this situation has now been resolved so that all the keys should go out as they should (thanks VG247). Here's word:

Just got an email from the IR representative, they are going to update the accounts directly in their system, and begin distributing the keys. I don't have exact ETA on this but they said it will be soon.

So there won't be any change for those who already got the keys and installed the game in steam. For others the key will appear on their IR page soon. Please be patient.

I appreciate all helpful suggestions.

Thanks

The Talos Principle Video

This video shows off gameplay from a beta version of The Talos Principle, the upcoming science fiction adventure in the works at Croteam. Apparently inspired by discussions of recording me and my buddies playing co-op, the clips is presented as a "let's play poorly" video, as things don't always go perfectly for the intern controlling the game. Word is: "The Devolver Digital intern is tasked with playing an in-development build of Croteam's The Talos Principle and is publicly shamed for his poor reasoning and logic." Thanks Seriously.

Out of the Blue

Congrats to the new inductees into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I'm certainly happy for Giants standout Michael Strahan getting in, but I am actually happiest about Ray Guy getting in, as he was a great player, and it didn't seem right to have zero punters in the hall, regardless of the general image of the position. And who knows? Now that Guy has broken the pigskin ceiling, maybe there's a chance Dave Jennings can get in? Probably not.
