Pendulo Studios has posted a statement regarding Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharaoh, which launched yesterday but is not currently in a good enough state for players to enjoy the experience as the studio intended.
As such, the company is committed to fixing outstanding issues with the game via a series of patches within the next few weeks.
Hello everyone, we want to share important information about our current release, Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharaoh. Despite our best efforts, those who play the game at launch won’t be able to enjoy the experience as we intended it to be.
We are committed to fixing this situation in a promptly manner – we will deliver the necessary patches in the coming weeks while keeping all our channels at your disposal for any issue you want to report to us directly.
This is our most ambitious project ever, and we’re putting our heart into it. We are devoted to paying the best tribute to the famous reporter and delighting you as a player, and we won’t stop until we reach our goal. Thank you for your support and patience.
The fact the game launched in a poor state would seemingly indicate that it was beyond the control of the developer, as they would surely not have released the title if they weren’t satisfied with how it performed.
