Sorry it's not working! I have a support page for the game Sparsevector.com that goes through some common issues that can keep the game from running. If the stuff on that page doesn't fix it there's also info about what to send me so I can try to figure out what's going wrong.

Yes! You already have it, actually :) If you go to Indiedb.com, scroll down to the game, click Keys, then click Get Steam Key that should do the trick.

If you click that link ( Indiedb.com ) while you are logged in you should see a big list of all the games you own on Desura. The second column in this list (titled "Options") should have "Play" "Download" and "Keys" links for every game you own. If you click the "Keys" link for Super Amazing Wagon Adventure that should pop up a window where you can click a "Get Steam Key" button. Do you not have the "Play" "Download" "Keys" links?

If you go to Indiedb.com there should be a "Keys" button next to Super Amazing Wagon Adventure. :)

Sorry the game's not working for you! I've sent a private message with some troubleshooting steps.

I've responded to your private message. Sorry for the slow response! It was a busy weekend with PAX.

Thanks for the suggestion! Right now I'm busy working on a new game so I don't have any plans for ports, but I'm definitely keeping an eye on Ouya. I like their open philosophy so I'm hopeful the console will take off.

When you pick the Standard wagon (the white covered wagon) everyone should start with 4 hearts, but some of the other wagons start with 2 or 1 hearts for each person. Are you playing with the Alien or the Fast by chance?

Thanks! I wanted to make a game about the American migration west that didn't have all those historical inaccuracies other games have ;)

There's not a Linux port of the game, sorry. I also don't currently have plans to make a port, but I've not ruled it out as a possibility either.

Sorry the game isn't working for you! I've sent you a private message with some questions / troubleshooting ideas.

Yes, this might be related to one of the wagons. I can't say more without spoiling it :)

Sorry you're having trouble with the game! I've sent you a private message with some troubleshooting questions which should hopefully help me figure out what's going wrong.

No problem! I'm glad you're enjoying the game :)

To activate a code you have to run the Desura client, click the blue icon at the top left of the window, then click "Tools" > "Activate Game CD key or Gift"

It's Windows PC only, sorry.

I don't have plans for a sequel for now, but thanks!

Maybe? It sounds like the game may have been breaking ;)

Sorry for the slow response--unfortunately I don't get emails when people comment here and I sometimes forget to check here (Desura has too many comment sections). I've sent you a private message with some questions / ideas on how to figure out what's wrong. Sorry you're having a problem.

Sure! However, unless you have an ox pulled covered wagon it will have to be a wagon adventure in your imagination.

Thank you! I'm working on a new game but it's not officially announced yet. However if you follow me on twitter (@sparsevector) I occasionally post some early screenshots of the game.

To download the standalone installer make sure you've visiting this page in a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, not the Desura client). Basically there's two ways to install the game (1) from the Desura software click Play and then double click the name of the game or (2) visit this page from a browser and then download the "EXE Installer" from "Purchased Downloads" on the right hand side of this page. If you're still having trouble send me a message and I can try to figure out what's wrong.

Perhaps try restarting Desura? I can see from your profile that you have the game, so it should definitely show up in your games list. You should also see a "Purchased Downloads" section on the right side of this web page when you are signed in. You should be able to download the game from there without using the Desura client (just visiting this page in a browser). Send me a message if you're still having problems and I can contact Desura to try and figure out what could be wrong.

Yes, i was a solo project.

I would like to, yes! If the game gets on Steam giving Steam keys to everyone would require some cooperation from Desura, so I can't 100% guarantee it, but I think that other games have been able to do this, so I don't think it would be a problem.

I've thought about it but I don't have immediate plans for doing that since my game was already a part of a big sale (the Indie Royale bundle). Thanks!

If you aren't seeing a "Full" option under "Version" and you aren't seeing a "Purchased Downloads section on this page, then that means Desura doesn't think you've purchased the full version. Is it possible you purchased it using a different account? I've sent you a private message with some more info.

Sorry you're having an issue. I've responded to this below but I'm repasting here in case you don't see it. After you buy the full version you have to reinstall the game (the demo version doesn't automatically upgrade itself). From the Desura client you should be able to right click the game and then click Version->Full to install the full version. The version you currently have installed should have a little "x" next to it. You should also see a standalone installer on the right side of this webpage under "Purchased Downloads" titled "Super Amazing Wagon Adventure EXE Installer". If you download and run this it should also give you the full version. Let me know if you still have trouble.
