Stranded FAQ

[Curve Digital]

We're here to answer any questions!

In the meantime, three that we think might come up!

There's no launch discount!

We've just dropped an email to Steam and our 10% launch discount should hopefully appear very soon!

I have a voucher for this game?

We partnered with Ed Key and Tiger Style Games to offer a discount for Stranded to all owners of Proteus and Waking Mars. Ed Key and David Kanaga's Proteus was a big inspiration for Peter during development of Stranded, while Tiger Style's Waking Mars is one of the best examples of the concept of an alien world ever created. While both games are very different from Stranded both visually and in terms of the themes they explore, we think that players who enjoyed those beautiful games that focus on exploration and discovery are likely to find Stranded especially interesting.

I bought this game on Humble, can I have a key?

We're working with Humble to see if we can do this automatically. In the meantime, you can manually request a Steam key with a picture of your receipt of the game from humble by going to this thread.

Where can I get support for Stranded?

Drop us an email to [e-mail] and we'll do our best to sort out your problem!

This game looks real fun!

Huge fan of Ed Key's work, so hearing that inspiration was taken from Proteus is a big plus for me. I'm a sucker for exploration-based atmosphere heavy games and this looks like a great addition to the collection. Thanks for the bit off, bought it as soon as I read this!

I can't use the voucher because of the launch discount. It looks like Steam does not allow me to have both discounts at the same time. I don't think Curve Studios want Proteus & Waking Mars owners not to buy the game till next week, so there must be some glitch there, but that's it. I'm not buying till June because of that.

It seems I cannot use my voucher. As the game is already discounted, it says I cannot use it :(

Edit: I wrote at the same time that Dux. I have the same problem

[CueZero]

That's weird, I definitely think there's some kind of a glitch. I just tried using the other Stranded coupon I got for Waking Mars and that seems to be the case, it won't let me use it anymore, though I was able to use my first one about 15 minutes ago.

As the FAQ reads

"There's no launch discount!

I suppose you used the voucher before the discount was applied.

[Strahl]

Same thing here, with the added 10% launch discount, it makes us unable to use the 20% voucher coupon because you can't mix discounts on the steam store.

[CueZero]

Yes, like I said I used the first one 15 minutes before the previous post so the week one discount wasn't applied yet, giving me a slightly cheaper price of around 6.35. Maybe it was supposed to be stackable with the new discount.

[ManiacJim]

Same coupon problem with me.

[Smilehoho]

please process the humble key fast. If so, that will be great.

Why so short? $6 w/ discount code from owning Waking Mars for a game that's barely 40minutes long? I understand supporting companies and what not and the game is looking rather beautiful but still even then $6 for 40mins is really stretching it.

I feel robbed... Is it the prolog or prelude to something bigger? Because it is a nice experiment, nice walk, nice atmosphere, nice ending, wait what? 30mn playing and the ending so soon? even around 4€ with the voucher I feel robbed. Pretty heavily.
