Repeated intro

Hey, So, with the latest release we've seen the return of our good friend "Windows Specific Controller Bug That Only Occurs When Launching Through Steam". We're really sorry for not picking this up during QA, it's a problem that only happens when the game is running through Steam. Go figure. THE WORKAROUND: For now, you can still run Friendship Club (with full controller support!) via the Local Files. If you've not done this before, here's a step-by-step guide: 1) Open Steam 2) Find Friendship Club in your Library and right click on it 3) Open 'Properties' 4) Click the 'Local Files' tab 5 )Click 'Browse Local Files' 6) Double-click friendshipclub.exe We're looking into this ASAP and will be contacting Valve (again) to see if they have any suggestions. We're also looking at refactoring our controller handling (fun) to see if that fixes it. Lastly, we'll be implementing a beta-branch in Steam so that we can test the game via launching it from Steam. In future we might be on the lookout for beta testers so keep your eyes peeled if that sounds interesting to you. Cheers!
