Hi i LOVE this game it seems to have great potential SO PLS don’t go abandon it like the stomping lands game cuz if you keep up the good work we could have one of the best games i’ve played in a long while, ps i have a pretty slow and shitty laptop but i might be getting one with a Quad-core processor & 16 gb of ram but graphics card will it run smoothly on that & might i ask when will u be releasing the full game.

In reply to NotFunnyMistahJ. Hi! Sorry to hear you're having trouble with frame rate. That's a pretty powerful laptop too! It is a very early build at the moment, so isn't optimised for all systems, glad you enjoyed the animation and environments though. A new build is coming to Steam soon, so it'll hopefully run a little better on your rig. :)

On my laptop it is /almost/ unplayably slow, running around 10fps. However, because all I was doing was exploring, it wasn’t too bad and it was VERY pretty! The walking animations for the dinosaurs is awesome and the environment is lush and interesting. This seems to have real potential, I can’t wait to see where you go with it next!

(My specs are intel core i7 4700MQ, 12 GB ram, NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M if that’s helpful)

In reply to Blake. Hi, sorry man, The Isle is still very early in development, so will still require optimisation to run on lower spec PCs. Unless you have a laptop with some serious grunt and a dedicated GFX card, I doubt it will run very well. Hopefully in the future though. :)

In the mean time can maybe you make a torrent out of the game for those that can’t download it due to the Google thing?

Is there anyway to reduce some of the graphical options to make it run better? My laptop is no slouch, but it can’t seem to run this game at anything higher than about 2 frames a second.

In reply to Shwiggles. Hi! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. The Isle has been very popular on ABG. We're looking into uploading it to another source. Stay tuned. :)

Might I suggest moving or mirroring the download elsewhere? Im getting an error telling me to wait 24 hours because too many people have viewed or downloaded the file, and that’s a bit annoying as Im sure I would just get the same error again.

I can’t be the only one bothered by this.

The error:
“Too many users have viewed or downloaded this file recently. Please try accessing the file again later. If the file you are trying to access is particularly large or is shared with many people, it may take up to 24 hours to be able to view or download the file. If you still can’t access a file after 24 hours, contact your domain administrator.”

In reply to Aarn. Hi! Sorry, unfortunately there isn't a Mac version available yet.

In reply to kieri.

Hi! We’d recommend using WinRAR to unRAR the archive. Once You’ve installed WinRAR, Simply Right Click on the File and select ‘Extract Files…’ and select where you want to extract it to. You’ll then find ‘Theisle.exe’ in the folder you’ve extracted to.

Hope this works. It’s also worth noting that this game is VERY early in development, so may not work on all system configurations (but it definitely works with Windows 8.1).

how would i access this on a mac

kieri — Sun, 31 May 2015 00:09:41 +0000

how do i get the game to open? i downloaded it (windows 8.1) and it required a rar app to open it. so i downloaded a free app and attempted to open it. it said it was extracting, but then the program ended. i’ve tried opening it multiple times but it isn’t working.
