Sorry about the delayed update.

The Steam Cloud sync issue on Mac took us more time than our expected. Currently the issue was solved under Steam Team's help. For engineers play AAW on Mac cross-platform-ly, please remember to back up your save files at ~/Library/Application Support/com.LaputaLabs.AlansAutomatonWorkshop to prevent unwanted save file overwrite.

Next stop, the Sandbox mode! We will do our best to catch up the schedule and release it as soon as possible. Once again, thank you for your kindly support and patience. 🙏
