How to access older versions of 12 orbits
If you ever find the game no longer working for you, obviously let me know. But also, as a quick fix, you can easily return to a prior version of the game if you want to.

I always push old patches / builds of 12 orbits into the “beta” branches on Steam. That means if a newer version causes problems that an old one didn’t, you can just switch to the old one instead. This can be a quick fix to start playing again, or it can help with finding out what the problem actually is (e.g. if the old versions suddenly stopped working as well, something else on your PC might be the problem).

To access the older versions:
  1. Right-click on 12 orbits in the Steam launcher games list
  2. “Properties…”
  3. “Beta”
  4. Set “Beta Participation” to anything that starts with “previous version”
    (the lower the number, the older the version)
This should immediately cause Steam to download different files for 12 orbits. If nothing happens, restarting Steam is always worth a try (and if so, check if the same "beta" version is still selected after that restart).
