Hey there, skip this part if you want to get to the bug and not the backstory.
I bought Game Dev Tycoon last night (Great game, by the way; I read the article on putting a version of your game on TPB and that’s a great strategy!) - I was lucky enough to go to the developer site instead of proceeding with checkout, which at the time I thought was next August - and played the non-Steam version for a while. Everything worked fine, but I got off to a bad start so I ended up scrapping my profile twice in favor of a new game. I had redeemed my Steam key after I got the game here, and left GDT’s Steam Library window open all night to notify me when it was available; this morning I downloaded it and was greeted with (obviously) a newer version, letting me pick between a larger amount of time to “open my company”.
So, after starting up the game on Steam, I am prompted to do the tutorial again. I start it, make a new and identical profile, then cannot open the dev menu (Make New Game, research etc). I am able to do this on the non-Steam version which makes me think the Steam update is what causes this problem. I can click through menus, tutorials etc. Does anyone else have this problem? Or is it an isolated incident?
I can provide more information if needed.
EDIT 1: I think this has to do with 1.4.2 in general, not just Steam. The one that was on the site DL last night was working fine, and still is.
