""We found a bug that impacted a very small number of game releases (less than 100 since 2015) where wishlist email notifications for the launch of a game were not sent," wrote a Valve spokesperson. "Unfortunately, your game Planet Centauri was among those included. We intend for this feature to work for every game and we're inviting you to a Daily Deal as a way to help make up for lost visibility from your launch day.""
""Lechat explained at length how the dismal response to Planet Centauri disheartened himself and Marmontel. He also seemed wary about Valve's offer before other users on Reddit urged them to accept the added visibility of a Daily Deal on Steam's homepage. Since Planet Centauri's story has been making the rounds, there has been a small uptick of concurrent players to 105. That's not a huge number, but some players have given the game a shot and shared largely positive reviews.""
Planet Centauri spent nearly a decade in early access on Steam before a 1.0 launch last year that performed poorly. Valve discovered a bug that prevented wishlist launch email notifications for fewer than 100 games since 2015 and confirmed Planet Centauri was affected. Valve offered a Daily Deal to help compensate for the lost launch visibility. Developers Laurent Lechat and Boris Marmontel were disheartened by the response and initially wary of the offer, though community members urged acceptance. Player count briefly rose to 105 with mixed reviews, and the developers are completing a new roguelike using the same engine before returning to patches.
