Hi All

Just did a search on Steam for OS4 not expect it to find anything. This came up

Huenison AmigaOS 4

This is good to see and hopefully more OS4 software developers will do the same.

@g01df1sh

yes always great to see my favourite OS out in the main stream

I believe Simone provided an update to the Amiga version on Steam.

@klx300r

It says that the AOS 4 version is available as DLC if you bought the Windows (or whatever) version. So... that's one way to get AOS 4 in there I guess :)

@all

The story goes like this...

Originally, Huenison was published and sold directly by RGCD through their BigCartel webshop. Then, I put it also on Desura (which, BTW, in the meanwhile went bankrupt: they owe me ~200 EUR from the sales of BOH and Huenison, and I'll never see them ), IndieGameStand, and (quite recently) AmiStore.
At some point, RGCD and I decided to publish Huenison on Steam. The game was put on Greenlight, and after quite a long time it got greenlit. Months later (maybe about a year, I can't remember exactly...), I finally started adapting the Windows version to the Steam platform. In the process, I made some improvements that were of course ported back to the AOS4 version.
Once done, I made sure that everyone who had bought the game from any store would have access to the Steam version as well (so, free keys were distributed to all the previous customers). Unfortunately, as one would expect, Steam does not support AOS4, but I did want the AOS4 version to be on it to allow AOS4 users to download the updated version on their own (RGCD's BigCartel store had been closed much earlier, so there was no other way). The obvious solution was to add the AOS4 version as a free DLC associated to the Windows game... and that's why AOS4 now has a mention on Steam.
And, yes, I enjoyed that idea of giving AOS4 a little publicity - after all, the game was born and developed on AOS4
